The Snag w/ "Pray and Play to Release" of a fellow Antifa from Arrest - DNC Day 2, Consulate Demo

In the middle of the stretch of the Intifada/Hamas demonstrations in front of the Israeli Consulate in Chicago, many put two and three together for an attempt at breaking through the Police lines to grab one of their own after an arrest by police.

It didn't work, but still they consider the optics of rallying like it was a huddle in a big game.

It fails again, but this time two more get taken out, with a third being lured into a police staring contest, and was taken immediately.

Finally, they end up in the capacity of lacking any to leave the back of a loaded police van, along with various others that were put there throughout a longer period of time with the demo leading to various other arrests after police clashes with the Anarchist/Marxist demonstrators.

Many police were deployed by the thousands and there were more demonstrators, though not as many as were initially believed within the tens of thousands earlier Muslim/organizing leaders within the Palestine/Intifada communities. This, along with the draw of more careful planning has lead to many outsiders seeing the draw down of the demonstrations as better handled than other demonstrations in the past within the US by Hamas groups.

Outside of the groups of preachers, the other sides were Israeli demonstrators, police, and finally the Intifada protesters whom claimed the war as their reason for outrage and the motivation for various actions including going after police upon being arrested.

This was recorded on 500 W Madison Ave in Chicago, IL on August 20th, 2024. This took place within the second day of the DNC national convention and was the proposed draw for the tens of thousands of projected number of demonstrators prior to what were found to be only around over since 10,000 people.
