Pro-Palestinian protesters in Chicago disrupted the Democratic National Convention (DNC) welcome party at Navy Pier, chanting slogans such as "DNC go home, or we're gonna bring the war home." The demonstrators, some of whom were masked and wearing keffiyehs, expressed their opposition to the DNC and support for the intifada. The protests took place as the DNC was set to begin in Chicago, with participants holding signs reading "Globalize the intifada." The protests raised questions about potential incitement and security concerns at the event.
