George Clooney Arrested for Sudan Protest

Truth rating: 10

VIDEO

(CNN)

George Clooney was arrested on Friday during a protest in front of Sudan’s embassy in Washington, D.C.

The actor, along with other activists including his father Nick and Martin Luther King III, had gathered in front of the building to demand action against Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir, whom they accuse of triggering a humanitarian crisis.

Law enforcement warned protesters three times not to remain on the wrong side of a police line outside the embassy.

When they refused to budge, Clooney and the others were cuffed and taken into custody.

Beforehand, Clooney spoke with reporters about the violence plaguing the region and the Sudanese government’s blockage of food and aid from entering the country.

    You do realize this was a planned “arrest”. I read about it yesterday in the Washington Post.

  • Anonymous

    This is a plus for the cause considering Clooney is high profile and the arrest will be covered. He’s an actor so this won’t affect his job so it’s a win win.

    I didn’t think it was possible for me to gain more respect for George Clooney, because I already respect him so much, but I have. Good for you George, using your celebrity to gain press coverage and bring attention to this very important issue is great!

    I am a fundraiser and I know that many Africans don’t donate to charity. No wonder I did not see any
    in the crowd. Bravo George for doing what Africans can’t do for Africans.

    Please keep his communist a#$$ arrested. I am sick of him and al the “philathropist” celebrities, who took it upon themselves to single handedly save Africa from Africa. Stay out of other countries business, especially, if you are not a politician.
