On the Syrian protest at the White House

From a protester who was there:  "Reference your post about the Syrian white house protest, I was present during my lunch hour.  There was a picture of Bashshar on the Syrian flag, the Zionist protester was not protesting against them, but she was there by coincidence. I see her over there at least two or three times a week.  I also saw two or three Syrians arguing with the Zionist protester and one of the Syrians was holding the Syrian flag, so I can see the misinterpretation.  There was no Hizbullah flag present, a separate protester sitting on the curb was holding a US flag along with a large yellow flag (may be a Veteran) but it was not Hizbullah's/  One protester was holding a Russian flag however. One Syrian woman asked me if I was an Arab and I said yes I am and she said to me "Allah Minkon Ya Arab, Allah Minkon"  I said why do you say that, I love you guys.   I left at that point as I did not want to become the subject of  their anger.
Few guys did the Syrian Sa7jeh, singing Allah Soriya Bashshar wa Bass, the women who yelled at me "corrected" them Allah Soreya Alghaysh wa bass."
 
PS Another witness told me that the yellow flag was the flag that is raised by Tea Party supporters.
