激烈抗议!美退伍军人:“没人想为以色列而战”
据美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)、福克斯新闻网等媒体报道,美国国会警察局在一份声明中称,在国会参议院军事委员会一个小组委员会4日举行的听证会上,一名来自美国北卡罗来纳州的男子因抗议美国对伊朗的军事行动,被强制带离现场。
The US Capitol Police said in a statement that a man from North Carolina was forcibly removed from a Wednesday hearing held by a subcommittee of the Senate Armed Services Committee, for protesting US military operations against Iran.
报道称,该男子名叫布莱恩・麦金尼斯,是一名前海军陆战队员。多段视频显示,麦金尼斯当时在听证会上站起来高呼:“美国不想派它的儿女为以色列而战!” 警方随即上前抓住并试图将其带离会场,有警员将麦金尼斯拖向出口,但受到激烈反抗。当警员将他拖出房间时,他高喊,“没人想为以色列而战。”
The protester was Brian McGinnis, a Marine veteran running as a Green Party candidate in North Carolina's Senate race. McGinnis stood up during the hearing and shouted: "America doesn't want to send its sons and daughters to fight for Israel!" Members of the Capitol Police attempted to remove McGinnis — who was wearing a military uniform — from the hearing room. McGinnis appeared to struggle with officers. While authorities attempted to pull McGinnis out of the room, the Marine, who Capitol Police identified as Brian McGinnis, shouted, "No one wants to fight for Israel" as he was dragged from the hearing room.
报道同时提到,名为 “布莱恩・麦金尼斯” 的社交平台X账号发布一段视频显示,该男子称自己 “身处华盛顿特区,试图公开发声反对参议院”,并质问议员们为何要让国家卷入战争。
In a video posted to X on Wednesday, McGinnis, wearing his Marine uniform, says he traveled to Washington DC to speak to senators about the Iran war. "I'm here in DC trying to speak out against the Senate and ask them why they're going to send our men and women to harm's way when our elected officials said that there would be no world war," McGinnis said.
该男子目前已被逮捕,面临袭警等指控。
2月28日,美国和以色列突然对伊朗发动大规模袭击,伊朗最高领袖哈梅内伊遭袭身亡。随后,伊朗对中东地区的美军基地和以色列目标发起还击。联合国等国际组织、多国领导人和政府谴责美以军事行动,呼吁各方恢复对话以避免局势进一步升级。
针对此次美国对伊朗采取的军事行动,多名民主党议员发声,抨击此次行动未经国会授权,当属 “违法”。还有民主党议员敦促特朗普政府将精力放在国内事务上,而非在中东地区煽动战争。3月2日傍晚,美国纽约、旧金山、洛杉矶、芝加哥、亚特兰大等主要城市的民众举行游行集会,抗议美国对伊朗发动军事打击,要求特朗普政府停止针对伊朗的战争行为。
