We must embrace our true nature and just have an entire wall of text that explores every nuance of the issue as our slogan.

how about "death to israel" then

America Delenda Est

always got weird "manifest destiny" vibes from that song tbh

The West Bank isn't a financial institution.

not sure if this is a bit

The entirety of Israel exists on land stolen from the indigenous inhabitants of the region. This claim on land is enforced through extreme violence and disenfranchisement of said indigenous population, to the point of genocide. "From the river to the sea" means every last bit of stolen land must be restored to its rightful owners, and the illegitimate fascist apartheid state of Israel can only continue to exist by denying that restitution. The creation of a Palestinian state that respects the rights of all ethnicities and religious groups within its borders is the only acceptable solution, and the assertion that any Jews left in the region if Israel doesn't exist being hunted down and slaughtered is rooted in ahistorical, xenophobic attitudes. The Muslim world has a significantly better track record in how it's treated its Jewish minority than Europe or America ever did.

It's not a compromise. It's not a demand for genocide. It's a demand for justice. You don't chant "stop murdering like half of us maybe," that's fucking ridiculous.

To be fair, I’d say your replies are one-sided because you’re posting in a place where the majority are not too sympathetic to Israel’s existence

Okay you seem genuine, so I'll bite. Actual antisemites don't try to hide their views. In 2015 CHUDs in Charlottesville took to the streets chanting "the Jews will not replace us." They made it very clear.

"From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" is self explanatory as well. Palestinians cannot be free so long as the state of Israel exists. That doesn't mean executing all Jews, it means ending the apartheid state that's been commiting genocide and stealing land for 70+ years. I don't have it in me to explain the whole conflict for you, but if you look at 1948, 1967, and even the 2000 Camp David accords you'll see that any sort of "compromise" with Israel leads to Palestinians losing their land and their lives.

Good thing "From the river to the sea" doesn't mean anything close to a call to commit genocide against Jewish people. It's a call to liberate the land from a fascist theocratic settler-colonial ethnostate. As for what to replace it with, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine put forth a plan for a secular socialist government that would guarantee rights and freedom of religion to all.

Isn'treal apologists like to pretend "from the river to the sea" is a call for genocide because then they can pretend that people fighting for their liberation as Nazis. But it's just not true.

i think a good chant makes an implicit argument that shifts the conversation. Israel has made it clear for its entire history that it is incompatible with Palestinian dignity and freedom. This is not widely understood by Americans, who think peacetime is just and neutral, and that the conflict began either 1000 years ago over whose god is better, or last week when the New York Times said Hamas murdered thousands of innocents for no discernible reason.

"From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" makes the argument that all the land between those bounds is occupied territory, and that the occupation will fall. Given a belief in the narrative of a holy racewar, it is easily misinterpreted as exterminationist. A quick conversation can solve this: "why are you calling for the extermination of Jews?" "I'm not. That's not what that means. Why do you equate freedom with extermination?" Then you continue marching, because you are not interested in fighting the racewar. That's the terrain of the zionists.
