Yes literally a genocide slogan no matter which side uses it.
"being free"in reference of an illegal occupation.
THAT'S A CALL FOR GENOCIDE!!!
did freeing concentration camps after WW2 count as a genocide?
BEIng fReE from.... omg stfu we all know exactly what it means. Its a call for the cleansing of the lands of the eternal enemy, whether its said by israelies or by palestinians. Its absolutely insane that there are people who defend genocidal slogans.
Instead of getting angry you could research what that slogan means to different groups. For nearly every group that slogan currently means freedom for everyone from the river to the sea. Most accounts of early use meaning freedom for Palestine not just from Israel, but from Jordan and Egypt as well. The one group that used it in a mostly genocidal undertone was the PLO in the 1960's who believed it meant returning the whole region to Palestinian rule, and 'removing' all people that immigrated in the last hundred years. As with most things it requires nuance. It can mean something bad, but these days most people use it to mean freedom. Intentionally taking it to mean something other than how people mean to use it seems disingenuous.
lol, you have never talked to any Palestinians?
When apartheid ended in south Africa, did it end with all the white people being executed?
they want the right of return. they want equal rights. and definitely, some genociders belong in jail.
Only if you internalize the racist premise that freedom in a region can only be achieved by expelling all other ethnic groups. The slogan is a rorschach test; it reveals the ideology of the interpreter. If you interpret "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" as genocidal it demonstrates that you don't believe Palestinians and Israelis can coexist as equals.
You can make up whatever kind of bullshit defense for genocidal slogans as you want and deflect this to be an issue of the interpreter. The reality of course is that the slogan means literally what the people using it has said several times that they want to do - drive the enemies out to of the levant and in to the sea i.e genocide.
Palestinians and Israeli estates demonstratably can not co exist, they have tried for well over a hundred years now and they just keep murdering each other.
Gtfo.
The Zionist state cannot coexist with anyone. it is the genocidal state. calling against "From the river to the sea" is the call for genocide.
but from your point of view, raising a genocide is as bad as conducting one. so your opinion is invalid.
Nor can the palestinian state, as demonstrated for the last 100+ years. You people are just so unbelievable sectarian that you do not realise that just because one side is evil that doesn't necessarily mean that the other side is good. They are both fucking insane fundamentalist racist murdering cunts.
You're losing and you know it, your shithole ethnostate is living on borrowed time
it's been almost a century of Zionists trying to eradicate Palestine, yet it's still there.
you're the idiot who treats this as a sports match.
it's a settler colonial state conducting a genocide against the natives. and you're understanding is that natives not wanting to die are as bad as those monsters killing them?
