I had a chat with them yesterday using google translate and apparently they think “From the river to the sea” is problematic. Not sure why, but it’s probably their government lying to them and saying Palestine is an ethnostate.
I reject the existence of Israel too. Before Israel, Jews and Arabs lived in peace in Palestine. But Britain invaded, created Israel, and cut Palestine in half. From the river to the sea, Arab Palestinians must be free to walk hand in hand with their Jewish siblings. Not imprisoned behind Israeli walls, forced out of their homes, and bombed in the name of stopping a Hamas government that Israel themselves helped gain power. Hamas is Israel’s fault, not the fault of the innocent children in Gaza. Israel is responsible for the attacks against Jews in Israel and in the rest of the world. Because Israel has told the world that Jews are evil colonisers and their existence must be paid for in innocent blood. This is a slanderous lie against the Jewish people! Down with Israel! Down with antisemitism! Down with genocide!
Agreed, but thats still no reason to identify with Hamas. I expect from a capable Individual like you to be able to differentiate and form an independent opinion
From the river to the sea has existed a lot longer than Hamas has in in power. A conservative government can’t “claim” a half century old chant.
Australia’s national animal is a kangaroo. If I draw a kangaroo on the canvas, does it mean I support the dictatorship of Australia? No, of course not. Because Australia doesn’t get to own the idea of kangaroos. And Hamas doesn’t get to own this chant. This chant is a lot less tied to the views of a conservative government than the German flag it’s drawn on.

Its problematic because its the Hamas slogan and rejects the existence of israel.
