A pro-Palestinian conference has been canceled at a Hilton hotel in Texas amid the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas with the major hotel chain citing “potential risks” for team members and guests.
The Hilton Houston Post Oak by the Galleria was planning to host the Seize the Moment US Campaign for Palestinian Rights National Conference (USCPR) from Oct. 27 to Oct. 29.
According to the USCPR, the event, which was set to be hosted in Houston, Texas, was being held in “solidarity with the Palestinian people resisting 75+ years of ethnic cleansing” and to “mobilize for liberation.”
Some social media users on X, formerly Twitter, called on the public to voice their objection and call on Hilton to cancel the event, saying that the conference is for Hamas supporters and that some of the speakers are “proud Jew haters.”
In a statement to KHOU 11, Hilton Hotels said that they canceled the event over “the potential risks.”
“Given escalating security concerns in the current environment, the hotel has determined that it cannot serve as the venue for this event because of the potential risks to our Team Members and guests,” the hotel said in a statement to the local outlet. “Our priority is and will remain the safety and security of everyone we welcome at our hotel.”
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott applauded the cancelation saying that Hilton Hotels was “correct to pull the plug” on the convention.
“Hilton Hotels in Houston was correct to pull the plug on the U.S. Campaign for Palestine Rights event hosted by Hamas supporters,” the Republican governor wrote on X. “Texas has no room for hate & antisemitism like that supported by Hamas.”

Cancelled for the wrong reason only bc of security risk not bc it’s wrong to host such an event. No brownie points
Cancellation for wrong reason they get zero credit for it
It was cancelled for the right reason and they are only claiming it is for security reasons.
Meaning, the world is so overall refined and elevated that even Nit Yidden recognize good Vs bad and want to choose good overall.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which blamed Israel for Hamas’s unprecedented civilian slaughter earlier this month, will assemble on Saturday at the Marriott Crystal Gateway in Arlington, Va., for its annual banquet, according to an online invitation
Does anyone know the contact info of that hotel so people could thank them. It’s important they get support for their decision so they are encouraged to make such decisions in the future.
