Text on image:
“Trump is an irrelevant clown
#HandsOffJerusalem”
The second image shows a sign held during a procession, which presents a picture of Jerusalem showing the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the foreground and the Dome of the Rock in the background, and below it a picture of Trump holding a signed memorandum recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital as US Vice President Mike Pence stands in the background. Shoes are stuck to the poster around the faces of Trump and Pence as well as on the memorandum. In Arab culture throwing shoes at someone is a sign of great disrespect for them.
Text on poster in English and Arabic:
“Peace upon Jerusalem, the Mother of all Capitals.
To Trump and Pence and their puppets, Beware! …
Jerusalem is not one of your Casinos
Jerusalem is the most sacred city to Muslims and Christians
Jerusalem is the eternal capital of Palestine
Jerusalem is a Red Line!!”
