As the 2024 Democratic National Convention opens Monday in Chicago, we look at the protests planned throughout the week to pressure Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party on key policies, including the ongoing U.S.-backed Israeli war on Gaza. Meanwhile, at least 36 delegates are also inside the convention as official delegates representing the “uncommitted” movement and are advocating an antiwar agenda to push for an end to U.S. arms sales to Israel. Although protesters this week come from a range of communities advocating on various issues, from economic injustice to reproductive rights, “Palestine is at the center,” says Hatem Abudayyeh, spokesperson for the Coalition to March on the Democratic National Convention and national chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network. “All of those communities are standing up very publicly and very proudly, saying, 'Free Palestine. End U.S. aid to Israel.'”
Oh you’re the guy that doesn’t understand dual citizenship (you called me out in a previous thread) . I can’t stand 2ozma either so have an angry upvote.
To be clear : I just don’t like being called a liar. My mom is American, I grew up in Italy.
I remember you. I understand dual citizenship just fine. You didn’t bring it up until after i pointed out an inconsistency in your story. Not saying i don’t believe you, it was just hard to believe that “American gun culture” was some kinda surprise to you, if you had been immersed in it.
Thank you. That does make sense as I didn’t state it at the outset. I also understand that thread was a little heated and maybe I came off as a little confrontational. It seems every time he-who-shall-not-be-named is mentioned people lose their minds (and I understand why).
