Former President Joseph R. Biden was harassed by anti-Israel demonstrators during his visit to Ireland, where his son, Hunter Biden, accepted an award.
The former president was at Dublin’s Trinity College, along with former first lady Jill Biden, on Wednesday as Hunter accepted the Gold Medal for Outstanding Contribution to Public Discourse.
As the former president exited the building, an object was thrown at him and was blocked by an umbrella.

Police arrested two people at the scene, according to Fox News.
People in the gathered mob chanted, “Blood, blood, blood on your hands.”
Reports say police received the brunt of the mob’s heckling after the Biden motorcade drove off.
Mr. Biden’s administration was known for its staunch support of Israel, including providing U.S. military assistance, following the slaughter of Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, and the country’s ensuing conflict with Hamas.
