ADL raises alarm over planned DNC protests; pro-Palestinian group rejects claims
CHICAGO -- Concern is growing from some over a planned protest at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago later this month.The Anti-Defamation League , a Jewish advocacy group, is taking issue with a planned pro-Palestinian protest and what it claims are the tactics of the groups involved.'These groups have a history of fanning the flames of hate, and inspiring acts of harassment, vandalism, and violence,' said David Goldenberg, regional director of the ADL Midwest.
Monuments were also spray-painted with graffiti—including, as referenced by the ADL Thursday, the words 'Hamas is coming' on the base of a statute of Christopher Columbus.The ADL called the messages of the groups behind the pro-Palestinian protests antisemitic and hateful.'What we have seen to date in the city of Chicago is nothing compared to what has happened in other locations in the United States and global cities,' said Illinois state Rep.
