On April 5th, anti-Israel activists organized for the “International Al-Quds Day” (Jerusalem Day) to protest the existence of Israel and commemorate Palestine’s struggle against the Jewish people. During this annual observance, large demonstrations are held, with most beginning after Islamic Friday prayers.

This year, Islamic extremists and their left-wing sympathizers waved Palestinian flags and chanted, “Free, Free Palestine” and “Long live Palestine.” These pro-Palestine (pro-Hamas) rallies were held in various cities throughout the U.S. – including Chicago.

On April 15th, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that another protest, part of a global “economic blockade to free Palestine” obstructed streets in the San Franciso Bay area, on the Brooklyn Bridge, and locally, on the expressway to O’Hare airport.  The goal? To pressure state and federal politicians to push for an end to Israel’s military campaign to defeat Hamas in Gaza.

What the corporate media will not report is that these crowds in Chicago were also chanting “Death to Israel” in Persian.

Nor will they report that protestors in Dearborn, Michigan, were chanting “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” in front of the Henry Ford Centennial Library.

According to The Hill, the White House condemned the chants saying, “any type of violent rhetoric, we are going to denounce…”

Almost 200 days after the horrific October 7th terror attacks on innocent Jewish men, women, and children, one wonders why there is so little concern about the hostages still being held by Hamas in Gaza. Despite the groups’ stated concern for human rights, no chants on behalf of these victims could be heard.

May God have mercy on them and their families.
