The activists were demanding that President Joe Biden cease U.S. aid to Israel. The attack, which was launched by the Islamic Republic of Iran, posed a significant threat to the residents of Israel, despite its ultimate failure.
The conference, titled "March on the Democratic National Convention 2024," was held on Saturday. It was attended by a coalition of far-left groups planning to protest the DNC in August with the aim of ending U.S. aid to Israel. Many attendees, who were masked, voiced their support for Iran's attack on Israel. This attack was allegedly a response to a recent Israeli strike that resulted in the deaths of seven senior Iranian military officials, including two generals, in Damascus, Syria.
The event was attended by dozens of pro-Palestinian activists who pledged to oppose U.S. support for Israel. The gathering was marked by chants and slogans advocating for Palestinian liberation and resistance against U.S. policies in the region.
