"Terrorist", "Murderer of Innocent Civilians"

Shortly after signing "anti-smuggling agreement" with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, "Israel's" foreign minister Tsibi Livni came under journalists fire some accusing her of terrorism.

One of the journalists called Livni a "terrorist" and complained that "Israel" was preventing reporters from covering the war in Gaza. The event's host asked the man to settle for one question, but the latter cried out, "You let her speak here and don't let us ask questions. Since when are terrorists accommodated here?"

"What, are you like Zimbabwe?" another woman told the foreign minister.
The journalists took advantage of the opportunity and the stage to read out sections from human rights organizations' reports on "Israel's" conduct during Operation Cast Lead.

Another journalist accused "Israel" of murdering innocent civilians.

Livni hardly managed to keep cool but lost her peace of mind, when she was asked by an al-Jazeera reporter if her visit to Washington was part of her election campaign.

"Nonsense," Livni replied, adding "we work together. Defense (War) Minister Barak and I are doing the job. I work according to my commitments as the foreign minister. We work together with the prime minister to defend ‘Israel's' 'citizens' (occupation settlers)."

While she was speaking inside, a protest was being held outside the building by an anti-war group calling themselves "Code Pink", who repeatedly chanted "there is a war criminal in this building."
