(Jerusalem Post) The 2nd annual People’s Conference [for] Palestine in Detroit saw toned-down rhetoric compared to last year’s conference in terms of support for violence and terrorist organizations.
Nevertheless, the August 29-31 event attended by Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, streamer [Hasan] Piker, Green Party presidential candidate Dr. Jill Stein, and leaders of the anti-Israel activist community still saw elements of pro-terrorist and anti-American sentiment during panels and speeches.
The event centered mostly around concerns about a supposed genocide being conducted in Gaza by Israeli forces, with discussions on destruction to infrastructure, deaths of journalists during the war, and the provision of medical aid. Several speakers, including the emcees, expressed a sense of urgency with the event occurring as the IDF girded itself to push into the Hamas strongholds in Gaza City.
