This slogan means no Jewish state at all, and that would mean the slaughter of millions of Jews. But it’s acceptable on the Left today to harbor such genocidal aspirations.
Rashida Tlaib RT's out the same message that got Marc Lamont Hill canned from CNN.
From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free – code for eradicating the State of Israel and its millions of Jews.

“Democrat Rashida Tlaib Promotes Slogan Associated With Calling For Elimination Of Israel,” by Ryan Saavedra, Daily Wire, November 29, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) promoted a tweet on her Twitter account on Sunday that contained a phrase that is associated with calling for the elimination of Israel.
StopAntisemitism.org highlighted the tweet that Tlaib retweeted, which stated: “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
“Rashida Tlaib RT’s out the same message that got Marc Lamont Hill canned from CNN,” StopAntisemitism.org noted. “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free – code for eradicating the State of Israel and its millions of Jews. Reminder – this is a sitting U.S. Congresswoman.”
The Daily Beast, a left-wing publication, wrote the following about the meaning of the phrase:
The river in this formulation is the Jordan, the naturally occurring eastern border of Israel and of the West Bank; the sea is the Mediterranean to the west. Uttered by advocates of the Palestinian cause for decades, the pithy slogan very pointedly makes no place for Israel. It evokes a strip of Middle Eastern land where Israel is no more, replaced by a unified Palestinian entity in the space it once occupied. It could be that this entity would welcome and protect a Jewish population. But when supporters of the Jewish state hear those 10 words, they worry about their potentially violent implications.
CNN did fire then-contributor Marc Lamont Hill in 2018 after he used the slogan, which The Times of Israel noted was associated with “Palestinian extremists,” during a speech at the United Nations. Hamas has repeatedly used the phrase…
Mount Zion says
Kick her out of Congress . Ilhan Omar once sayd she would like to see more muslims in Congress , I bet she ment more muslims like Rashida and herself who would love to see Israel eradicated.
truthout says
In the old days she would have been kicked out alright.The guillitine would have been brought to her at congress.Several pieces of her would have been kicked out.Too bad the USA doesn’t exist anymore.God I miss my country.Lets face it we have been displaced within haven’t we.

Walter Sieruk says
First, Rashida Tlaib by her tweet had exposed ,again, her vicious murderous anti- Jewish genocidal Islamic mindset .
Second this is,somewhat similar ro the saying about the Arab- Muslims who call themselves “Palestinians” who say “First comes Saturday , then comes Sunday” The meaning if that saying means “We as devote Muslims First , eliminate the Jews ,the we eliminate the Christians.”
Third what Tlaib tweeted in not only evil but it’s also a stupid primitive unintelligent rhyme .

From the sewer into the sea Palestine will be free
mortimer says
Tlaib is using ‘free’ in a particular way that has nothing to do with liberty or human rights.
The Arabic equivalent word for ‘free’ is ‘BARAA’ … which does not mean ‘freedom’ or ‘liberty’.
‘BARAA’ means to be free of a disease.
Muslims must be ‘free from’ the disease of the dirty kufaar ‘for the sake of Allah’.

True Mortimer when they say free they mean a world free of kaffirs what a joke to hear them talk about freedom I guess there freedom is our slavery and genocide

A “Free Palestine” means a “Muslim Palestine” for most Muslims.
Just like a free Pakistan, or a free Afghanistan, or a free Anystan ?
No thanks; not too appealing ; not a place most people in this world would ever want to live.

Nothing could be clearer….if her position was ever in doubt. But now it is clearly in the open and in writing. A line drawn in the sand.

This moslim creep has no business helping to make Laws the rest of us are expected to follow and obey on punishment of fines and prison.
This lying moslim has no business making decisions about where money from American taxpayers go, whether to spend it in the U.S. or send it elsewhere on the planet.
She lied to get elected…claiming her father’s residence as her own so she could run in that district… and she has had her photo taken with terrorists.
So will this call for genocide of the Jews be added to the FBII’s report on hatred against Jews? This moslim is in a position to make things happen, not alone, of course, but she is not the only one in Congress who hates Jews
As a group, they could cause harm to those they hate.

And as usual, the Jew-haters will get a pass. They always do.
As for the fbi, forget it. They’re on the terrorists side.

Wellington says
Tlaib is “merely” the tip of the problem, much as the tip of the iceberg which sank the Titanic only showed a very small portion of itself above the sea, Yes indeed, evil runs deep and much evil, especially at the state level, is ordinarily very well hidden.
And for the record, I don’t think icebergs are evil, I wish to be crystal clear about this, but I have nonetheless invoked the iceberg metaphor all the while completely rejecting “Icebergaphobia”–for the record and all that.
The rot in the present Democratic Party of the USA is extensive and deep and, focusing here on Tlaib, though most definitely she should be examined, excoriated and evicted from the Democratic Party, this will not happen because, duh, the present Democratic Party of the USA has become, effectively, an enemy of the American experiment in democracy, freedom and equality under the law.
So, Tlaib will continue to “prosper;” Biden will remain ever clueless; the MSM will cover for Tlaib and Omar; the MSM will continue to demonize Trump, which is, in reality, a demonization of all Trump supporters; and America is being set on a course that could very well lead to the complete demise of Western Civilization.
Doubt me? Well then, look at China and what it wants. The so-called “wisdom of the East” is pure bullshit—no Asian nation has ever explored liberty and free-thinking overall and so I am one heartily sick of the “wisdom of the East” nonsense—eff the wisdom of the East. I don’t need it. I don’t want it.
The ancient Greeks were far, far ahead in the liberty area than the Asian world has ever been. And the Founding Fathers of America alone blow away wisdom about freedom in the entire corpus of Asian history—and deep shame on Asian civilizations for this, ditto for the Islamic world, the American Indian world, the sub-Saharan African world, et al.
What a completely phony world we now live in. One knows this or should know it. Alas, so many do not. The wretched Tlaib comes to mind—an enemy within to be sure.

Of course Japan is in Asia and it has a pretty decent democracy flourishing there. BTW Japan basically has a “no-immigrant” policy. i.e. certainly no muslims.
Wellington says
Rarely: Most, if not all, of Japan’s “decent democracy” can be laudably and metaphorically laid at the feet of General Douglas MacArthur—not Japanese.
And thus, verily and so on, this reality about MacArthur does no real credit to the Asian world but to the Western world once again, the very world which is the only world that can be excoriated (e.g., over slavery, never mind the Western world was the first civilization to realize that slavery was wrong and took many measures to correct it) without repercussions and accusations of hate, all the while EVERY other civilization and society, BAR NONE, have done virtually nothing to promote liberty as the West has.
In brief, your invocation of Japan only testifies to the unique greatness of Western Civilization. Put another way, General Douglas MacArthur did more for the cause of freedom on Honshu, Hokkaido, Shikoku and Kyushu, the four main Japanese islands, than any Japanese in history.
Minus MacArthur, Japan would not be what it is. And thus, I rest my case.
gravenimage says
Agreed, Wellington. Although I *do* give kudos to the Japanese for finally so enthusiastically embracing democracy. Certainly, no Muslim country has ever done this.
James Lincoln says

You perked my interest regarding Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s role in helping the Japanese implement a new post-World War II political order.

Infidel says
Wellington, the no-immigration policy is more likely a Japanese original, rather than something McArthur introduced
Wellington says
Infidel: I’ll “give you” the “no-immigration policy” of the Japanese. It was not my intention to give the Japanese no credit but “merely” to properly assess and assert where credit in general belongs.
After all, and as Steven Jobs stated, the Japanese are not great at inventing things but they are masters of re-inventing things—like making a better car or having a sound immigration policy.
The Japanese understand full well that democracy is not a suicide pact. Here the Japanese could teach the Western world a great deal

This scumbag Tlaib was re-elected! People voted again for her for her second round in Congress. This speaks very, very badly for American constituents. Even if most of those that voted for her were Somalians or arabs, it still shows that these invaders brought to the U.S. courtesy of Bush II and 0bama have transformed the U.S. into a third-world class country

Rod says
“Palestine will be free”, according to the logic of that great intellectual Robert Spencer, means the elimination of Israel and of millions of Jews.
By the same “logic”, black Americans calling for freedom must mean the elimination of White America and white Americans.
Alternatively, the Spencer might just be spewing another fraudulent, toxic dose of hatred and intolerance into the remarkably receptive minds of his gullible devotees.
gravenimage says
What crap from “Rod”. What does he think is between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea *now*? Of course, that is Israel:

“‘Palestine From the River to the Sea’ Has Always Been a Call for Annihilation Not Liberation”
https://jewishjournal.com/commentary/blogs/242943/palestine-river-sea-always-call-annihilation-not-liberation/
And “Rod’s” pretending that Black Americans during the Civil Rights era were calling for the destruction of the United States is quite false.
Rod says
To be a Hungarian calling for freedom behind the Iron Curtain means, as Robert
Reagan understood, that you want freedom. To be a black American calling for freedom means, as Martin Luther King made clear, that you want freedom.
To be a Palestinian calling for freedom means, according to Robert Spencer, that you want wholesale murder.
To be a jihadwatcher means that this sort of inanity is not an insult to your intelligence, as it should be, but common sense. Where is the intelligence? Gone missing it seems. Instead, there is an empty void, waiting to be filled with the toxic sludge of bigotry.
bigotry:
obtuse or narrow-minded intolerance, especially of other races or religions.
In this case, the term “obtuse” seems markedly appropriate.
gravenimage says
To describe the savage imposition of Shari’ah law to be imposed over the smoking ruins of a democratic state as “freedom” is pretty sick.
Never mind that Muslims *already* have equal rights in Israel–that it not enough. Muslims want to be able to impose oppressive, unfree Islamic law on others.
R Thomasson says
US Christians, Jews, Hindi, Buddhists, Atheists etc., and people in the free world must adopt one iron rule. NEVER appoint people belonging to a religion that believes in genocide, to any level in politics. Certainly not for the US Senate or Congress. This measure has nothing to do with discrimination on race, gender etc., but has everything to do with safety measures. In a democratic free country, there is no place in politics for people who hang a religion that promotes genocide on other people. Islam hangs obviously genocide on people who don’t belong to Allah’s pack, and don’t accept his rules. https://www.nationthailand.com/opinion/30294836 Now they use sleazy, cheap Takkiya methods to stealth into the political systems of western countries. Is any American aware that nearly all Muslims in high political positions are women? Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Linda Sarsour, Reema Dodin etc. This trick has nothing to do with women emancipation, and respect for women. Muslims forward women because this is what white lefty political elite wants to see. Show them how democratic and modern free-thinking US Muslims are. The same bullshit was used during the Madrid Peace Conference of 1991 (30 Oct. – 1 Nov). The Palestinians were represented by a delegation of super stars. Among them was Hanan Ashrawi, a highly intelligent and brilliant woman who belongs to the Christian minority. It was for outsiders more than obvious, that she would have a high-ranking position in the PA future government. Wrong. As a woman and CHRISTIAN she had no chance. After she had gained popularity on global level, she vanished in meaningless jobs in Gaza, and later in nothing. Nobody needed her knowledge, diplomatic talents and shrewdness. The same will happen with all the Tlaibs, Omars, Sarsours etc. when the goal is achieved. Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar are in no way as brilliant as Hanan Ashrawi. Rashida shows that her primitive mentality is still there. If the Dems are electing people of her caliber for the Senate, Americans can better be very suspicious for all what would come next.
Rod says
“NEVER appoint people belonging to a religion that believes in genocide, to any level in politics.”
I wonder if you’re aware that the behaviour of the USA in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos has often been described as genocidal. Those responsible probably saw themselves as good Christians.
Muslim people I know and know of, have no interest whatever in genocide. So what are you talking about? You’re obviously talking about discrimination, despite your claim that it has nothing to do with discrimination. A dictionary might help, and a bit of research into Muslim beliefs?
CogitoErgoSum says
Have you ever read the Koran, Rod? How do you interpret verse 9:29?
Rod says
I used to hear bits of the Old Testament in Sunday School. Can’t remember whether I took it seriously or not. But I learned to put childish things away many decades ago.
Since then I’ve benefited from good teachers, learned to think for myself, met many Muslims and lived in and visited their countries, and learned a lot about their culture.
Isn’t it time you grew up too? How do you interpret Genesis 1:1?
gravenimage says
Of course “Rod” won’t say he has a problem with Qur’an 9:29–“Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day, nor comply with what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, nor embrace the religion of truth from among those who were given the Scripture, until they pay the tax, willingly submitting, fully humbled”.
But then, why would he?
And the implication that pious Muslims do not act on this savagery is, of course, quite false.
gravenimage says
The claim that fighting Communism in South East Asia was genocide is absurd.
Then, the claim that Islam does not teach genocide is of course quite false. The idea that one would accept “Rod’s” witless Taqiyya if they knew more about Islam makes no sense at all.
