Black Friday shopping in Chicago while bombs keep dropping
With a chant of, 'while you're shopping, bombs are dropping', pro-Palestinians march down Chicago's famous Magnificent Mile of high-end stores on Black Friday, the day after the Thanksgiving national holiday and the busiest shopping day of the year.
Black Friday, they're still dropping the bombs. They're still hurting those children, those people who are innocent. It's those politicians who are messed up.
It's not the civilians. Those are experiencing homelessness. They're experiencing hunger, they're experiencing lack of medical support, and this is what we're here for.
We're here for the victims who are suffering from those things.

The March also joined with demonstrators around the world to mark the International Day of solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Protests were also held in New York City, Boston and elsewhere in the United States as the pro-Gaza movement continues to stretch its already historic proportions and reach.
Palestinian resistance is at the front line. They fight for American workers as much as for their own people. That's the tip of the spear as far as American imperialism goes.
So I'm a construction worker, I'm a laborer, but we see that struggle as universal. So we're similar, like I said, on a morality level, but there's a there's a class attribute at play here too, and we understand we have the same enemy, rich ruling classes.

As the attempted genocide and ethnic cleansing approaches its 14th month, the backlash against the Zionist project has reached levels few would have imagined possible, and which portends enormous future problems for Israel's colonial project.
A recent poll of Jewish American teenagers found that 37% of them now sympathize with Hamas. 41% of them agree that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and 66% of them now sympathize with Palestinians as a whole.
You are seeing polls that are starting to reflect the truth of what Jews feel, and what many other people feel, but are intimidated by this evil, satanic power of Zionism, that is an insult to common sense of humanity.

Israel has been forced to retreat from Lebanon without achieving its war aims, but their daily attacks on Gaza continue despite global condemnation of Tel Aviv and the military and political support of the administration of outgoing US President, Joe Biden.
