Senior US Democrat accuses pro-Palestine protesters of 'left-wing totalitarianism'

Senior US Democratic Representative Adam Smith said that students and others protesting in support of Palestine are engaged in "left-wing totalitarianism" and are trying to silence decision-makers.

Smith, who serves on the US House Committee on Armed Services, condemned the form of protest employed throughout this war as "completely wrong and enormously dangerous".

Speaking to One Decision Podcast, he accused protesters of not wanting to meet with representatives and called for the arrests of those "shutting down a freeway, shutting down an airport".
