An extremist group that believes black Americans and other people of color are the real descendants of the ancient Israelites clashed Saturday with pro-Palestine protesters in Chicago while police attempted to calm the two groups.
The sometimes violent exchanges between pro-Palestine protesters and members or supporters of Black Hebrew Israelites followed a march around the Chicago Loop organized by a group called the Chicago Coalition for Justice in Palestine, police said.
Pro-Palestine and pro-Hamas protesters chanted their demand for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war.
Thirty minutes into the march, altercations began to break out among the thousands of protesters, CBS News Chicago reported. Video reports show members and supporters of Black Hebrew Israelites and pro-Palestine groups violently attacking each other, some using flags as weapons and others throwing objects.
One pro-Palestine protester was caught on video shouting the N-word at Black Hebrew Israelites during the conflict between demonstrators, revealing more of the complexity of historic Middle East issues.
Exactly...
Are we having fun yet?
“Pro-Palestine and pro-Hamas protesters chanted their demand for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war.”
Hamas needs to disarm to prove W’s assertion that Islam is a religion of peace.
Otherwise, no-go.
Wonderful!
It sounds like the Palestinians were holding their own until they got caught throwing the N word around. Then it was game over in the virtue signaling war.
It’s always nice to see lefties fighting each other.
I certainly hope and pray I don’t ever run into either of these two hate groups.
I guess you don’t really have to care about the outcome of the game in order to make book on it. Three will getcha five on the Black Hebrew Israelites in the next round.
That’s a new clash combo...
Yep. Get the popcorn out.

I wonder if the Nation of Islam had any people there, because they would have faced quite a dilemma when things turned ugly.
I actually laughed out loud. For some reason your comment was read in my head with a Mel Brooks voice.
Oh Bee Ess. It's not complex at all. Both groups are hate groups.
Dang, I’m in good company then!
Sorry, Bozo, but slaughtering 1400 people, be-heading babies, and killing men, women, and children deprives you the right to demand anything.
Publically admitting you are an anti-Semite, another person with little to low morals.
