Wednesday night to replace the flags that were taken down and burned earlier in the day by Hamas supporters protesting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaking to Congress.

Hamas supporters attacked outnumbered U.S. Park Police (not Capitol Police) at Union Station who tried to make arrests and protect the flags, but could not save every one as they were forced to retreat.
