The "People's Conference for Palestine" held in Detroit featured prominent speakers, including U.S. Representative Rashida Tlaib and Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, promoting pro-jihad messages while local media largely ignored coverage

The article presents three main arguments:

  1. Affiliation with Designated Terrorist Groups: The "People's Conference for Palestine" in Detroit was closely linked to the U.S.-designated terrorist organization, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Notably, the keynote speaker was Sana' Daqqa, widow of Walid Daqqa, a PFLP member convicted of murdering an Israeli soldier.

  2. Participation of U.S. Political Figures: The conference featured speeches by U.S. Representative Rashida Tlaib and Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, raising concerns about their association with an event endorsing terrorist-affiliated individuals and groups.

  3. Lack of Local Media Coverage: Despite the event's public nature and the involvement of prominent political figures, local media in Detroit and Dearborn largely ignored the conference, suggesting a deliberate oversight of its controversial aspects.
