CHICAGO — Leaders of four Muslim organizations say they’re expecting upwards of 100,000 demonstrators to take part in a number of protests during the Democratic National Convention.
Three main protests are being planned for Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, the first and last days of the convention. More than 150 organizations from around the country say they’ve formed a collective to have these protests be large in numbers, and while they represent a number of different interests, they say they will be focused on the Israeli-Palestinian war.
The leaders at a Monday morning press event said there will also be meetings with the Democratic leaders inside the convention about the US response in the Middle East. About 65 of the DNC delegates this year are Muslim.
Their push is to get President Biden to arrange a permanent ceasefire and work toward a Palestinian state before he leaves office.

Okay, how do I put emojis in my tagline?
I hope they don’t forget to bring their knives.
“If the DNC turns into shades of 1968 will the press even honestly report it?”
Given that the MSM is now basically a division of the Democrat Party, I’m not holding my breath.
I’m hoping for rioting, looting and the breakdown of society in Chicago.
I suspect that if the media does cover it, we’ll see it framed as “mostly peaceful” protests.
If they aren’t on your keyboard/keypad I’m not certain. There is a smiley face on my phone keypad and my kindle. On my desk top I right click the mouse where I’m typing. 😊👍
Do Muslims and blacks get along? Just asking.....
Give each a cup of gasoline and lets have a Smores party!
Burn, baby, burn.
I bet they are mostly peaceful.
Key the Benny Hill “running around in circles” music! More popcorn!!!
Thought the DNC was pro-Palestinian so why are they protesting.
“If they aren’t on your keyboard/keypad I’m not certain. “
I’m on a desktop, but I looked around and I found it!
😎
😉👍
Plus everybody on the left who wants something and thinks the Dems aren't extreme enough, from BLM to environmentalists, etc.
Plus "regular" criminals exploiting the chaos for a big payday.

They care not a whit about Palestinians. They just HATE JEWS!
Not likely, mate. See Tagline.
If the delegates decide to do some “decolonization” on the convention floor it would be hilarious....

Especially when they yell, ‘Hello Snackbar’, pull their coat open and go boom.
The only way the media covers it is if their reporters get attacked on camera on the convention floor and they cannot avoid it.
If it degrades into 1968 rioting, it will be hard to ignore.. but I am sure they will try to spin it.
We shall see...
“The only way the media covers it is if their reporters get attacked on camera on the convention floor...”
There’s a strange irony in seeing leftist journalists being attacked and beaten by leftist protestors.
I hope to see it ALL on TV.
