On Tuesday, Joe Biden held an event in Virginia to urge voters to cast their ballots for Democrats if they wanted to increase access to abortion following the reversal of Roe v Wade.
Just as the President began to speak, however, he was interrupted by anti-Israel agitators who verbally attacked him over his handling of the war between Israel and Hamas.

A voice emerged from the crowd cutting in, yelling, "Genocide Joe!"
"How many kids–" the agitator continued, before himself being interrupted and drowned out by the dozens of Biden supporters standing behind him on the stage who began chanting, "Four more years!"

As Axios reports, this is far from the first time Biden has been interrupted by those voicing their displeasure over the United States' role in the Middle East conflict.
Earlier this month, while he was speaking in South Carolina, a similar scene played out. When the activists began shouting, they were drowned out by chants of "Four more years!"
That day, however, Biden responded directly to the crew of disrupters.
"I understand their passion," he said, "and I've been quietly working with the Israeli government to get them to reduce and significantly get out of Gaza."
