Article is very interesting and talks about the mix of goals in regards to the protests, and how speech negatively and positively helps accomplish those goals.

    For real, I’ve heard some recordings, and the only similar thing I heard was “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”.

    I think it’s important to note as well, nearly ALL chants in most protests rhyme, so “… sea, Palestine will be Arab” just doesn’t sound like something anyone would be saying.

      Yeah, just doesn’t seem like a real chant, even if it weren’t pretty unambiguously calling for ethnic cleansing. It does seem like something an pro-Israeli interviewee might try to say was what “Palestine will be free” means though.
