Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus Thursday slammed protesters in Philadelphia for burning American and Israeli flags outside the Democratic National Convention and others for waving Palestinian banners inside the Wells Fargo Center.

Here are the chairman's posts on Twitter:

 

 

The Jerusalem Post reported that Bernie Sanders supporters were burning the flags on Tuesday, the night Hillary Clinton secured the party's presidential nomination.

The report also included other tweets showing backers torching fliers and posters outside the convention site. 

 

 

The Democratic National Committee came under fire Monday for having no American flags onstage at the Wells Fargo Center, while many delegates displayed Palestinian flags.
