Erasing Israel “from the river to the sea” would mean its total eradication and the deaths of millions of Jews.
“Anti-Israel protesters vandalize LA’s National Cemetery, where 90,000 veterans are buried,” by Melissa Koenig, New York Post, January 10, 2024:
Anti-Israel protesters vandalized and defaced the Los Angeles National Cemetery, where nearly 90,000 veterans who served the country from World War I through Vietnam are buried.
Video posted online showed a demonstrator spray-painting “Free Gaza” with an upside-down red triangle on the entrance to the National Cemetery as a protest shut down a major boulevard outside the US Federal Building on Saturday.
Demonstrators wearing traditional Palestinian keffiyehs were seen waving Palestinian flags and holding signs accusing President Biden of being an enabler of genocide and Zionists of being Nazis.
They chanted, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” a slogan that the Anti-Defamation League has labeled antisemitic, saying it calls for the elimination of the state of Israel.
Protesters also shouted “Long live Palestine,” “Long live intifada” and “Biden, Biden you’re a liar, we demand a cease-fire.”
The word “intifada” was also spray-painted on the Los Angeles National Cemetery sign, as photos taken in the aftermath showed.
The original intifada was a Palestinian uprising against the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip beginning in 1987.
It is unclear whether any arrests were made for the vandalism at the national cemetery. The Post has reached out to the Los Angeles Police Department for more information….

It appears that the English language has been destroyed. Desecrating buildings and other structures are pure acts of vandalism but to dishonor by defiling a national cemetery is the most disgraceful and act of hostility. Men and women in buried in these hallowed graves offered their lives in order that these treasonous vile sub-humans might legitimately protest. Not even during the sixties and seventies did the protests against the Vietnam War did people marching in the streets desecrate the graves of fallen soldiers or shout vulgarities at very fragile children in a hospital.

Pro-Hamas savages have not yet reached the the bottom of their depravity.
Rick Gordon says
Our national cemeteries mean nothing to these terrorists – nor does our government, our culture, our rights AND responsibilities as individual citizens.
They ought to be arrested and locked up for desecrating federal property and for hate crime activity.

You are Right. However that would be [ ISLAMOPHOBIC ] now if a christian group had painted free the Jews they would have been arrested and charged with a hate crime and destruction of federal property.
And here I thought that in America the laws applied to ALL EQUALLY.
