    From the river

    To the sea

    So come sit on my knee

    Tell me what you need

    Oh Ho Ho watch the elves work

    Oh Ho Ho make toys

    This slogan is explicitly about erasing the state of Israel. Regardless of what you think about Israel’s right to exist, it’s not going anywhere. So this slogan just entrenches everybody further whilst more innocents die. It’s dumb and I wish people would recognise it for the anti-praxis that it is.

    Expressing it like that is terrible.

    Normal people and extremist can and will interpret it differently.

      Even some of the Israelis use the term so extremist and regular people use the same term with different meaning.

      The 1977 election manifesto of the right-wing Israeli Likud party said: "Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.

        I’d criticize it on both sides, although I have only heard it from 1 side during the lasts years.

        Just because some idiots said something similar in 1970 doesn’t make it better to say it nowadays.
