Douglas Murray tells the RJC summit the only time Pro-Palestine protesters will have an American flag is when they want to “burn it.” “Go to an anti-Israel protest and they will be flying the flag of the Palestinians, flying the flag of Hamas or Hezbollah…they will not be flying an American flag… In fact if there is an American flag there it’s only so they can put it on the floor and burn it.”

If burning the American flag is free speech, then this is mine. As a gay conservative, the pride flag doesn’t represent me. Being gay doesn’t determine my politics or beliefs. This Pride Month, I’ll be proudly waving the American flag. 🇺🇸
