During her speech at Britain’s Oxford Union on Thursday night, Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California was interrupted by protesters who were against Israel.
The disruption was caused by two students who were displaying Palestinian flags.
Although they were removed from the event, they were not arrested, as reported by The Telegraph.
Images of the protest were shared by Politico journalist Bethany Dawson.
“Security are doing … nothing,” she wrote in one post:

I was thrilled after first reading the headline but then realized it was just a bunch of deadheads protesting their extreme – and deadly racist ideals. But I’m still glad something openly negative happened to remind her that she’s just another human being and nothing special – except for the fact that her body defies gravity like no other.
