Fiery anti-Israel protests got underway Sunday on the eve of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, with demonstrators disrupting a delegate party and one warning, “Welcome to hell week.”
Protesters couldn’t wait to confront prominent Democrats over the war in Gaza as hundreds flooded the streets and vowed to “bring the war home,” according to footage across social media.
Demonstrations are expected to happen throughout the week as national Dems celebrate the nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, 60.
At one point, protesters targeted a delegate party at Navy Pier where one rabble-rouser reached the stage, grabbed the microphone and accused the crowd of “funding a genocide,” according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
“The Harris-Biden administration keeps sending money to Israel,” the protester said before getting dragged off stage, according to a video posted by an anti-Israel group. “Free Palestine!”
Others rallied outside the event and reportedly warned of a “week of justice.”
One organizer, who only gave her name as Jinan, said disruptors were there to confront the Democratic Party over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.
“Welcome to hell week,” she said, according to the Sun-Times.

Crime-filled Chicago displays all that’s wrong with Democrats in one failing city
Don’t support the protestors, but it couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch of liars, frauds, and tyrants.
The Pro-Palis will be problematically pooping on their own Party this week. Fun times!
If anti-Israel loons take over Democrats’ convention, liberals only have themselves to blame
BTTT
“Welcome to hell week,”
Cue that Mr Burns “excellent” meme.
Get the pop-corn ready, this will be fun to watch.
If a tree falls in the forest and the news turn their cameras away, does the tree even exist?
We can only wish that they get all that they deserve. I also think that many of these black mayors have been elected to the job, but they don’t know how to do it, which is very obvious. Either they don’t know how to do it and they don’t want to learn how to do it or they just don’t give a shit. Show me the money.
I see more washed out recruits ringing a bell than skilled warfighters coming out at the end of the week.

Wonder if they are going to cage the protesters in like they have done at other conventions. But more importantly, I wonder if the protesters are going to act like lemmings and sit there and just shout poorly written Marxist slogans?
One thing I would love it see is the Palie and LGBT’s caged together.
Anti-Israel.......anti-Jews......anti-Christians - ANTI-AMERICA.....GET THEM OUT OF THIS COUNTRY!
Miranda Devine shouldn’t point fingers at Chicago.
“After nearly 100 years of Democratic rule, the Windy City is a basket case. Soaring crime, high taxes, crippling debt, crumbling infrastructure, and a declining population are just some of the miseries inflicted on its citizens.”
Except for declining population which New York offsets with immigrants, New York City is heading in the same direction.
