    It's not "from the river to the sea, murder all Jews", though, now is it?
    Seems a bit of a leap, what you're saying there?

      I never said I used it or made any assumptions. This is how some see its inference, which answers the posters question.

        You said "it is". And it's still a huge leap to infer that the call for freedom of Palestine would require the mass murder of anyone.
        The chant doesn't say anything about harming anyone, and it doesn't say that Palestine is/shall be the only territory between the river and the sea.
        This whole furore about the chant is devoid of logic.

          Pretty pathetic pedantism. You need more things to entertain yourself with my friend.

      OK, well, "all lives matter" doesn't mean "black lives don't matter" BUT we all know what they actually mean. It's called a dogwhistle. "from the river to the season" is also a dogwhistle, because the term comes from Palestinian organizations and people that want to wipe Israel off the map. You COULD just say "one-state" but that doesn't have the fun wink-wink that a dogwhistle has.

        It's not Lebensraum though. Palestinians are literally being oppressed.
        Why are you likening the Palestinian struggle for freedom from oppression to the genocidal machinations of the third Reich?
