The chant rang out loud and clear.

"Free, free, Palestine... Long live Palestine."

And so did another.

"Biden, Biden, you can't hide. We charge you with genocide."

At a recent rally on downtown Detroit's riverfront, thousands called for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war, which began after Hamas militants killed hundreds of Israelis on Oct. 7. Israel has responded by attacking the Gaza Strip, which Hamas governs. The conflict has left more than 1,200 Israelis and 11,300 Palestinians dead, according to Israeli and Gaza officials.

Speaking at the event, Michigan Democratic state Rep. Abraham Aiyash said the U.S. backing Israel signals a disregard for Palestinian lives in a way that goes directly against the country's founding principles.
