Chicago’s City Council narrowly approved a resolution Wednesday calling for a permanent cease-fire in the war between Israel and Hamas, with Mayor Brandon Johnson casting the tiebreaking vote.

Chicago is latest U.S. city to approve such a non-binding resolution, following Atlanta, Detroit and San Francisco in recent months.

    These city council meetings keep getting over run with citizens making statements about the situation and that is actually preventing them from doing other things. That’s why they passed this. So that the citizens will feel appeased and let them move on to their real business. It’s the citizens who are wasting the time in this case and if that’s their prerogative then so be it.
