Pro-Palestine Demonstrator Gets Massive Love By Hijacking Chicago Parade Float, Singing

Grooving to the sounds of justice for Palestine.

Chicago, January 4 – A grassroots teen protester took over a portion of a procession through the Windy City’s downtown area today to spread awareness of the Palestinian cause, generating nothing but enthusiasm and love from the thousands of onlookers and marchers, as expected.

The activist, a high school senior named Fares who had convinced two peers – Kamran and Maya – to put their dedication to Palestine above rigid adherence to white supremacist notions of school attendance, respect for property, and honesty by joining him in an all-day effort to undermine the norms of systemic oppression in society that all but forces people to choose working for a living, following laws, and not attacking Jews all the time, over attacking Jews all the time in the name of Palestinian liberation.

Fares’s lip-synched rendition of the Beatles’ 1963 cover of the Isley Brothers’ single Twist and Shout broke through the parade crowd’s façade of not caring about the suffering of the Palestinian people, at one point even prompting his own father – unaware of the identity of the hero performing on the street below – to groove to the sounds of justice for Palestine, even though he, the father, had always considered himself a staunch proponent of the Zionist status quo. The exuberance of thousands infected even the confused parade marshals, who shifted instantly from confusion over the unannounced interlude and its guerrilla performer to getting caught up in the rhythm and inspiration of a Globalized Intifada.

The successful publicity campaign formed part of a much longer day-long effort the trio pursued for Palestine: embarrassing an imperialist, controlling Zionist named Edruni; undermining the pretentious posturing of the Ashkenazi establishment at Chez Luis; accumulating projectiles at symbolically-important Wrigley Field under the very ample nose of the watchful Edruni; having the property – a Ferrari – they had rightfully stolen from an imperialist stolen in turn from them; having uplifting stories told about them and their plight, such as Fares expressing a desire for his eyes to be given to Stevie Wonder if he dies; and enjoying a loud, inspiring, occasionally puzzling, and ultimately irrelevant public outpouring of support all over the culture.

In what must surely presage a massed upswell in critical global support for Palestine, the city of Chicago has rallied around the cause, if but for a day. Eventually, some analysts believe, suspicions of impropriety might prompt those who fund Fares’s extracurricular activities to demand better monitoring of the disposition of the resources they provide and better transparency in his use of those resources, given disturbing rumors of how often Fares and his allies commit fraud.

“Nine times,” emphasized one important donor.
