Washington, July 31 (RHC)-- In Washington, D.C., dozens of interfaith activists on Tuesday disrupted a gathering on Capitol Hill by members of the lobby group Christians United for Israel — one of the largest pro-Israel organizations in the U.S. with some 11 million members. 

The group’s annual summit largely focuses on advocating for increased U.S. military support to Israel. 
Activists blocked a bus transporting CUFI members from National Harbor in Maryland to Capitol Hill. 
Meanwhile, in a separate action, several activists took to the water in kayaks at National Harbor, just outside the hotel and conference site where CUFI members gathered.  Protesters held a 28-foot banner that read ”CUFI kills” and Palestinian flags, as activists also denounced CUFI’s ties to white nationalism.
