What kind of rally against anti-Semitism includes racist signs calling for more war, more bombings, and the end of not just Hamas but Palestine itself? Or as one sign held by a masked protester read, “From the river to the sea, Israel is all you will see.”

This is not to say that every single person in attendance was there to celebrate war. The reports of increasing anti-Semitism have many people understandably concerned. But the messaging was far less about anti-Semitism than about “finishing the job” in Gaza.

    “Never again”—as I was raised—is supposed to mean that never again would Jews remain quiet when anyone on this planet faced genocide.

    The first time I heard the phrase “from the river to the sea” it was in a documentary and spoken by a “settler” about their plans.

        And now it’s been coopted by the same people who censured Rashida Tlaib because they alleged it was anti semitic.

        Zionists are gonna start murdering American leftists on behalf of the Republican party. Just wait.

      Read about “Great Isreal” in wikipedia.

      Wild shit.

      UN declaration of Isreal doesn’t define any border.

      The only problem is they don’t have enough people to rule the area.

    A hate rally, a rally for genocide.

    Every last one of them are unamericam pieces of shit. Literally had a speaker that said Hitler was a gift from God. And they cheered him. Van Jones mentions peace and they start chanting “no ceasefire”.

    Fucking Nazis.

    Democrats sacrificing their party’s presidential hopes on the altar of a war crime deserve nothing but contempt. If young people don’t turn out to vote, remember this rally, and remember how Schumer and Jeffries locked arms with Johnson, looked at 80 percent of their voters, and spit in their faces.
