Roughly 100K anti-Israel protesters expected to descend on Chicago to steal spotlight from DNC, Harris-Walz ticket

Roughly 100,000 far-left, Israel-hating protesters will be descending on Chicago this week, sowing chaos as Democratic leaders rally around their new presidential ticket.

At least seven large rallies and marches are set to take place in the Windy City while the McCormick Place Convention Center hosts Democratic National Convention, organizers said.

And other rallies are also expected even though their organizers have not scored necessary city permits.

The causes run the gamut of radical leftist causes, including backing Hamas terrorists and ending US aid to Israel.

The convention runs Monday through Thursday, but the protests begin Sunday with a march towards Grant Park organized by the pro-abortion, gay-rights organization Bodies Outside of Unjust Laws.

The biggest turnout is expected at “March on the DNC 2024” rallies slated for Monday and Thursday, organized by a coalition of 125 anti-Israel groups including the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression and the U.S. Palestinian Community Network.

Over 30,000 are expected to attend the Monday march, according to multiple reports.

If CONservatives were smart...

But they aren't. they are weak and stupid and cowardly...

They would make THIS their OWN January 6th. Send in agitators to be as violent as possible to destroy as much as possible. But they won't.

If I had a pallet of bricks I’d drop it off on a corner Sunday night.

I was at McCormick Center last week for a trade show. They were setting up a large area about a mile north for something. I think they were setting up for an air show but it’s probably the same area they’ll put the smelly Antifa fags.

I’ll believe a 100k crowd for Kamala when I see it. Even for a protest.

Why are these losers allowed to interfere with anything in the USA? Don’t get me wrong, a legitimate protest of the godless dems would be fine with me, but these foreign Jew haters should be arrested and/or deported.

The current regime has jailed legitimate protesters of the last election (J6), but these pieces of excrement are going to get away with this?

I wouldn’t care if it’s 5x that many.

I doubt there will be much of a disturbance because the media has quieted the protests to help the democrats.

A few of them are on student visas and they are currently attending prestigious universities like Columbia University.

100K Anti-Israel protestors? I think they meant 100K + 1. They forgot to include Walz.

So true.

And no matter what they do, the Dems won't refer to it as an insurrection or a threat to democracy. They probably won't even get close to the convention itself.

Everyone of those "anti-Israel progressives" should be removed from this country...... They are enemies of God!

Historical and biblical truth - The “Palestinian refugees” are neither Palestinian nor refugees. Here are the facts!
