Chicago says, “Hands off Iran!” hours before Trump announces U.S. airstrikes

Chicago, IL – Only a few hours before the public learned of the U.S. military’s attack on Iran’s three nuclear sites, hundreds took to the streets in Chicago, June 21, with the Coalition for Justice in Palestine (CJP) to demand hands off Iran. The protest was one of the Coalition’s recurring downtown protests, demanding an end to the ongoing U.S.– backed Israeli genocide of Palestine.

Over the last eight days, Israel has been at with Iran, beginning with its unprovoked attack on Iran on June 13. Iran launched waves of retaliatory missiles in response, confusing Israeli defense systems and striking key locations in Tel Aviv, Haifa and the surrounding areas.

In sweltering 93-degree heat, over 200 protesters gathered at Ida B. Wells Drive and Michigan Avenue yesterday, with community-based organizations such as the Anti-War Committee Chicago (AWC-Chicago) Chicago Alliance Against Racist & Political Repression (CAARPR), and Students for Democratic Society at University Illinois Chicago (SDS at UIC) mobilizing in support.

“There is one country in the middle east that has refused—that has vehemently rejected—to be a signatory to the nuclear non-proliferation treaty; that is not Iran, that is Israel!” Tarek Khalil from American Muslims for Palestine Chicago, a member of CJP, said in his address to the crowd.

Khalil continued, “There is one country in the Middle East that is, as I speak, committing a genocide against the Palestinian people; that is not Iran, that is Israel!” Israel and the U.S.’s recent attacks on Iran come in the 21st month of the ongoing genocide of the Palestine people, carried out by the Israeli apartheid regime, with full diplomatic support, weapons, billions of dollars of military aid, and intelligence from the U.S.

After the rally, protesters took to the streets, marching along Michigan Avenue, and drawing public attention from downtown Saturday shoppers, tourists, workers and businesspeople.

The protest’s demands were timely, with Trump announcing only four hours later that the U.S. military had attacked Iran’s nuclear facility, Fordo, with six B-2 stealth bombers, dropping 396,000 pounds of bunker buster bombs on the underground site. The U.S. Navy reportedly fired 30 TLAM cruise missiles at two other nuclear sites. Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi condemned the U.S. attack as “a grave violation of the UN Charter, international law and the NPT.” NPT is the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.

Lara Haddadin from U.S. Palestinian Community Network linked the attacks on Iran to the genocide in Palestine, saying, “The U.S. and Israel are always the aggressors – from Palestine to Lebanon to Syria to Iran, it is clear that the pattern of sanctions, destabilization, occupation and more is all to maintain U.S. dominance in the Middle East and all of the Third World.”

An emergency response action, called by U.S. Palestinian Community Network, a member of CJP, and Anti-War Committee Chicago is set for Monday at 5 p.m. in Federal Plaza.

Not so sure those "good people" who marched on Charlottesville would agree.

The image shows a transparent pen with a red ink reservoir and a gold-colored tip, resting diagonally on a lined notebook. The pen's cap is red, matching the ink color. The notebook has horizontal lines and is open to a page with red handwriting, partially visible. The pen is positioned centrally on the page, with its tip pointing towards the bottom right corner of the image. The background is a wooden surface, likely a desk or table, providing a neutral backdrop. The lighting is even, highlighting the pen and notebook without casting harsh shadows.

@codinghorror I meant work in people’s lives. That’s what research shows. Most humans do very poorly without the structure of work.

@jgordon oh yes definitely agree -- you should blog this, it's an excellent topic






This July 4th, don't just light a sparkler — light a fire.

They fly the flag while stripping away rights.

From women. From Black and Brown communities. From LGBTQ+ and trans people.

They call it "freedom" — but only for themselves.

This isn't freedom. This is control.
And we refuse to celebrate a regime that thrives on silence, fear, and division.

So this Independence Day, we show up — in the streets, in solidarity, in strength.

For bodily autonomy. For queer and trans liberation. For racial justice.
For true freedom — for all of us.

✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 Bring your rage. Bring your hope. Bring each other.
