Anti-Israel groups are planning a significant demonstration at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next week, coinciding with the celebration of Vice President Kamala Harris' nomination. The U.S. Palestinian Community Network is coordinating the protest, mobilizing participants from various states under the banner of 'March on DNC 2024.' Leaders of the group assert that there is little divergence between Harris and President Biden on Israel-Gaza policy.
Hatem Abudayyeh, the group's leader, emphasized their commitment to mobilization, stating, 'Harris represents the administration; she represents Biden. There is nothing that she has expressed independently that tells us she does not support the policies.' The group aims not only to halt what they perceive as genocide but also to prevent the escalation of conflict into a regional war.
