Eating Their Own: Democrats May Move August Convention Semi-Online To Avoid Pro-Hamas Riots From Base

To say that there is a problem in the Democrat party when it comes to the Hamas invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023 and the barbaric acts of rape, torture, baby-beheading, mutilation, and other savage acts perpetrated against unarmed Israeli civilians on their own soil is a massive understatement. The grotesque violence during a supposed truce was, and still is, actually celebrated by many Democrat politicians and their pro-Hamas voting base.

Americans, as a whole, however overwhelmingly support Israel as we long have and long will, so Joe “I am the Democratic Party” Biden is in a bind. Torn between the Obama holdovers and rehires who are pining for the 1960s and want “revolution” to destroy (er, “fundamentally transform”) America and have latched on to the justified response to October 7th by Israel as their latest tool of division and chaos and the pro-Hamas transplants to the U.S. who just want America (the Big Satan) and Israel (the little Satan) destroyed in any way possible, Team Biden has fumbled everything at every turn. Turning off both pro-Hamas and pro-Israel Democrats in such large numbers that it’s hard to see a way out at this point.

Instead of stepping back and reassessing what is right not for the Democrat party but for America, national Democrats are apparently going to wobble along the fence and try to minimize the damage on both sides by doing nothing at all. Hoping, perhaps, that Democrat party internal chaos and division will leak out and affect the nation as a whole?

Rather than cutting the lawless Hamas-terror-supporting wing of the party loose, they allow them to continue to undermine their party. Instead of taking a stand for America and for Israel, they are content to let chaos reign.

Case in point, the upcoming Democrat nominating convention is to be held in Chicago in August of this year. The America-hating 60s crowd is in a tough spot. They want social unrest, violence, riots, and mayhem because it’s who they are at heart; they never grew up, so they never outgrew their college years, never matured beyond their anti-America hatred. On the other hand, however, they find themselves in the position of “the man” now, pulling Biden’s strings and making him occasionally, if briefly, look almost like a real boy.

The solution, at least one that is reportedly being bounced around, is to resurrect the 2020 plandemic format for the DNC convention to avoid the fall-out from the resurrected 1968 DNC anti-Vietnam War riots they quite reasonably expect in the Windy City.

Politico reports:

President Joe Biden’s top advisers are all too aware the ghosts of 1968 may haunt their convention here, but they’re grappling with a pair of more urgent and thoroughly modern-day challenges as summer nears: How far can they go in reprising their virtual 2020 convention to mitigate the threat of disruption inside the arena, and how will they navigate a rookie mayor who unabashedly sympathizes with protesters?. . . . The goal: drive maximum viewership on television and the internet while minimizing live programming and openings for protest in Chicago’s United Center. This would mean moving party business, such as rules and platform votes, off the floor and denying would-be demonstrators a chance to seize on contentious debates.. . . . The challenge, of course, is that the delegates attending and, more to the point, the donors financing the convention expect the rites of an in-person convention. The political convention industrial complex remains strong after centuries of tradition, no matter how much the operative class relished having total control over what was effectively a multi-day commercial four years ago.So with campus protests over the war in Gaza raging and Biden being disrupted nearly everywhere he goes, Chicago’s organizers are plotting on how to preempt opportunities for heckling and quickly tamp down demonstrators who do get into the arena.

The concern for “disruption” is rooted in reality. Pro-Hamas protest organizers are suing for closer access to the convention site and insist that the protests will continue until “Palestine is truly free” (which, since Palestine has been “free” for over thirty years and actually elected Hamas leadership themselves, seems to mean when Israel is gone and every Jew on earth is dead).

CBS reports:

One of the largest groups planning to march at the Democratic National Convention in August is taking the city to federal court, after officials denied every single application for a permit to protest in proximity to the convention.The U.S. Palestinian Community Network is one of more than 70 organizations involved in planning various protests during the four-day convention at the United Center.The largest of those groups, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network is one of two groups who have filed a federal lawsuit against the city, arguing the city improperly denied them permits to hold a pair of protest marches within blocks of the DNC.The protesters have argued they should be allowed to be seen and heard by the politicians and delegates attending the convention at the United Center.”This is the place where we want to have our permitted march,” said Hatem Abudayyeh, chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network.Last month, organizers of two planned pro-Palestinian protest marches during the DNC filed a federal lawsuit, accusing the city of violating their First Amendment rights by denying permits to protest within blocks of the United Center during the convention.The protesters have said they want to send a message to President Joe Biden and other Democratic leaders to do more to force a ceasefire in Gaza.”It is the Democrats who are in power right now, and it is the Democrats who could stop this [war in Gaza],” he said. “This is going to be the largest protest for Palestinian rights in the history of Chicago.”Abudayyeh said activists from Chicago will be joined by thousands of others from across the country during the DNC.. . . . “I think the main goal is no business as usual,” Abudayyeh told CBS 2’s Tara Molina.But he said there’s a larger overarching main goal for the protests, and it’s about more than just President Biden demanding a cease-fire in Gaza.”I think protesting will never stop until Palestine is truly free,” he said.

Given the way things are going, people are not optimistic about the upcoming DNC (or RNC, for that matter) since both are being held in Democrat strongholds. It goes without saying that no normal American will be within miles of either of these likely future riot zones.
