Bullet points of Hamas flag spotted at anti-Israel rally near DNC as Chicago braces for possible unrest
- Former Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy emphasized the city's commitment to keeping the Democratic National Convention peaceful, despite concerns from House members over violence.
- A Hamas flag was spotted at an anti-Israel rally in Chicago, shared a pole with a Palestinian flag, and hundreds of organizations were expected to participate in the rally.
- Chicago officials are prepared to intervene if necessary, having undergone extensive training on constitutional policing and de-escalation tactics.
- The U.S. Secret Service, along with its federal, state, and local partners, respects the right of the public to demonstrate and will manage demonstrations safely.
- Protesters have vowed to keep the pressure on Democrats despite President Biden dropping out of the race and the party rallying behind Vice President Kamala Harris.
- The Chicago area has one of the largest Palestinian communities in the nation, and buses were bringing activists from all over the country to the rally.
- Organizers expected a turnout of at least 20,000 people for the march and rally, and some businesses boarded up their windows as a precaution.
- The event has drawn comparisons to the 1968 convention, where police and anti-Vietnam War protesters violently clashed on live television.
