From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate
conflating anti-Israel sentiment with antisemitism “silence(s) diverse voices speaking up for human rights.
It’s certainly not as clear-cut as your first sentence, and I’ll remind you that the only agent currently committing genocide in this conflict is the IDF/Likud (who incidentally have used the same wording, in their 1977 manifesto: “Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”)
So no, I won’t be editing my comment, because I do not acknowledge your falsehood.
You can’t point out that the meaning of words and phrases changes due to context, and then claim that a phrase is hate speech everywhere because it appears in a hateful context in one place.
That’s not what you said. Don’t squirm now.
I’m not the one getting self righteous about a country whose government has vowed to exterminate the Jewish state.
Surely you’re aware of what “from the river to the sea” would entail?
Yeah, calling out someone for a 5 million person wide brush is not self righteous.
It would entail people of more than one religion living together and sharing a nation as equals. The horror!

I think we both know that’s not what they mean.
Who’s “they”?
