DALLAS—Two days before the first anniversary of the start of Israel’s war with Hamas, hundreds gathered in Dallas on Saturday around historic Dealey Plaza—and across the street from a Holocaust museum—to call for the Jewish state’s destruction.  

Pro-Palestine activists swarmed the famous site of President John F. Kennedy’s November 1963 assassination for an afternoon of chanting and defiant speeches before marching through city streets. 

The rally was one of dozens across the U.S. and Canada that anti-Israel groups had planned as part of an “International Day of Action” to commemorate “one year of genocide” in Gaza and “one year of resistance” since Oct. 7, 2023—when Hamas terrorists killed or kidnapped, raped, and tortured, some 1,200 people in Israel.

Numerous protesters likewise praised Palestinian “resistance” and demanded no more U.S. military aid to Israel.   

Several of the protesters’ signs equated Israel to Nazi Germany. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein, who is Jewish, made the same comparison during a speech, saying she understands “genocide” because her own people endured it under Adolf Hitler.

The event drew counterprotesters on the other side of the plaza. They waved American and Israeli flags, blew on a ram’s horn, and sang songs such as “How Great is Our God.” 

Periodically, a truck drove through the plaza with messages condemning the Oct. 7 attacks plastered on its sides. 

Protesters eventually began slowly marching across several city blocks, complete with a police escort, megaphones, drumbeats, and local Baptist pastor Frederick Haynes slamming Israel as an “apartheid” state from the back of a pickup truck.
