Hot Hamas Summer
Pro-Palestine activists are promising a season of resistance, sponsored by deep-pocketed Iran.
“The Coming ‘Summer of Resistance,’” warned the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal. “Anti-Israel protestors seek to ‘Make 2024 as Great as 1968!’”
“Escalate for Gaza!” is one of the online campaigns featured in the story. While the details shared by the WSJ are alarming enough, a closer look reveals something even more worrisome.
“With the blood of 40,000 Palestinians on their hands, Genocide and Joe and Killer Kamala are trying to show up in Chicago this summer, for the Death and Nakba Coronation (DNC),” the group wrote in a recent Instagram post. “The people who are putting on this convention, the people who are inviting it to Chicago are complicit in the genocide in Gaza: Brandon Johnson, J.B. Pritzker, the Democratic party hacks and the pliant media. People in Chicago have an obligation, and an opportunity to bring the fight against the genocide straight to the people most responsible for it.”
“Every Friday, between now and the DNC, is Fuck the DNC Friday!” the organization declared. “Get creative, and take action to make opposition to the genocide convention visible, and make life miserable for the people inviting these criminals to Chicago. Stand with Palestine, shut down the convention!”
