“We have to destroy the idea of America in our heads, in our neighbors’ heads, in our comrades’ heads, in everybody’s heads in this country.”
The People’s Conference for Palestine, held in Troy, Michigan, this past weekend, was billed as a grassroots gathering of Palestinian activists and their allies. But behind the carefully packaged language of “liberation,” the rhetoric captured in multiple clips from the conference reveals an alarming mix of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism—messaging that seeks to delegitimize the United States itself while demonizing Israel and its supporters.
The clips, shared by Twitter/X user @thestustustudio (Stu Smith), expose the raw language used by speakers across multiple sessions.
One speaker called for direct campaigns against the United States and allied governments, boasting about pressure tactics against Egypt and urging confrontation against America in the wake of the Trump administration:
🚨 Mohammed Nabulsi: “We must choose targets that have to respond.”
At the People’s Conference for Palestine, Houston-based PYM organizer Mohammed Nabulsi argued that hitting targets like embassies — where a response is guaranteed — can energize and mobilize the movement.

“It’s empowering people to actually transform what we’re able to do, whether it’s speaking out, whether it’s organizing as ourselves, whether it’s carrying out campaigns, into tangible, strategic targets that have to respond to us… What the one thing that I say repression does? It makes you feel alienated and isolated. The only thing that allows you to overcome that is community and organization and strength, and that’s what we need to do.”
Another speaker explicitly tied the Palestinian movement to American political symbols—demanding that their rallies use the U.S. flag while simultaneously denouncing American leadership and praising fringe voices:
🚨 Crickets for America. Cheers for Hamas.

“Do not let the Israelis and the Zionists in this country to have a monopoly over the American flag… It should always be present in our rallies and activities, because we do not do this work alone. We do not hate this country. We love this country. We hate the genocide of health, whether it’s the guys who were in the last administration who owned this mess or the current administration… The ones who are making the most sense right now are Tucker Carlson and Congresswoman from Georgia, and we have to appeal to a broader coalition.”
One of the most chilling moments came when a speaker openly described the United States as locked in a “double suicide pact” with Israel:
🚨 Hasan Piker at the People’s Conference for Palestine: “Maintain revolutionary optimism… continue to agitate.”

“You must always continue to organize. You must always continue to agitate because the quicker we can create enough insurmountable pressure that causes the American state to recalculate its double suicide pact with Israel, the quicker we can save as many Palestinian lives as possible.”
Other rhetoric was more explicitly anti-American, calling for dismantling the very idea of the country itself:
If there’s one soundbite that I hope becomes synonymous with the People’s Conference for Palestine — beyond all the Hamas mentions — it’s this:
“We have to destroy the idea of America in our heads, in our neighbors’ heads, in our comrades’ heads…" pic.twitter.com/Ffe5g7Xtta

“We have to destroy the idea of America in our heads, in our neighbors’ heads, in our comrades’ heads, in everybody’s heads in this country.”
And in another panel, the United States and Israel were equated as indistinguishable “empires,” with calls to erase American exceptionalism from the minds of citizens:

“The average American will never understand the plight of the Palestinian person, because the state of Israel is a carbon copy of the United States, and therefore the thing to do is to destroy the idea of America in American [minds] so that they can see the humanity of everybody outside of the warping of American exceptionalism and imperialism and all these evil things.”
According to the official program, the conference was convened by a coalition of groups including the Palestinian Youth Movement, U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, ANSWER Coalition, and National Students for Justice in Palestine.
But as these speeches show, what’s being promoted is not just “solidarity with Gaza”—it’s a deliberate campaign to delegitimize both Israel and America, while spreading rhetoric that normalizes anti-Semitism under the guise of “resistance.”

They don’t want to assimilate into their new countries. They want to conquer them. It is all part of the jihad.
Dear Michigan, you have a malignant tumor in the process of metastasizing.
Trying to figure out how this is the Joooooos!!!! Fault (tm).
Standing by for the FR Anti-Semite Caucus to check in …
A lot of us are very aware of that.
Dont get me wrong, I love Michigan. Some of the best hunting and fishing anywhere and people are still very American. That may be part of the plan.
For all you Zionistaphiles, I don’t want America to go to war, or send weapons to Israel. Get this, begin removing Muslims from America, they do not belong in a Free Republic, which is what we are supposed to be. When you go to war against Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Iran, Jordan or Syria, YOU DO NOT BRING THEM IN for any reason. Why fight against their people, then import them? Sell weapons at market price, plus a good profit to Israel. Let them do what they must, but stay out of it.
This, has been my Anti Semitic moment for 9-01-2025.
I miss the old days.
Then:
Republicans: The tax rate should be 8%.
Democrats: The tax rate should be 12%.
Now:
Republicans: The tax rate should be 8%.
Democrats: Death to America!
It is a real tragedy that many working class Democrats just don’t see this.
Maybe Trump can arrange free flights to countries of their choice.
That’s exactly what Democrats tried to do, but DONALD J. TRUMP won the election and now AMERICA IS GREAT AGAIN.
“We have to destroy the idea of America in our heads, in our neighbors’ heads, in our comrades’ heads, in everybody’s heads in this country.”
That is the Democrat Party policy.
“Destroy the Idea of America” could be a capsule decription of the Democrat party line since Obama.
“The People’s Conference for Palestine, held in Troy, Michigan, this past weekend, was billed as a grassroots gathering of Palestinian activists and their allies.”
How about we Americans just beat the ever loving crap out of you stinking commies. Pound sand.
You are correct, Islam showing it’s love for the last 1400 years.
The indoctrination of Islam ideology is in the minds of billions around the world. It is very effective brainwashing and intimidation. It extinguishes diversity of civilizations, individual thinking, belief, freedom, etc., etc. It is a complete TOTALITARIAN ideology.
They don’t want to assimilate into their new countries. They want to conquer them. It is all part of the jihad.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Only a matter of time until American patriots take up arms and permanently eliminate these filthy vermin.
It is a real tragedy that many working class Democrats just don’t see this.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>....
Well, they better wake up and see it soon or many of them are going to end up in the dirt, because they’re low-hanging fruit for the jihadists.
> Well, they better wake up… <
Yep. It’s just crazy. I have many old-school Democrat friends. They put the flag out on holidays. They believe in hard work. Many are proud veterans.
And they think they are still voting for the party of Truman and JFK. They just don’t get they’re now voting for the party of traitors like Ilhan Omar.
☹️
There is NO Palestine, hence, there are NO Palestinians.
Just like Allah, they are figments of someone’s imagination.
Not much different rhetoric than that which came out of the American Communist Party Convention last year that gave us Knees Harris...
