@ZohranKMamdani knows — or should know — the difference. “Free, Free Palestine” means destruction of Israel. “Globalize the Intifada” is about murdering Israeli diplomats worldwide, and attacking Jews and Jewish institutions. The intifada was a years-long orgy of murder on the streets of Israel, in buses, hospitals, schools and restaurants. Those who call for intifada want total destruction of Israel. And thus, it is antisemitic by its nature and at its core.

Mamdani, on The Bulwark podcast, says ‘Globalize the Intifada’ chant signifies, to him, a call for Palestinian human rights. Adds: “The word has been used by the Holocaust Museum when translating the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising into Arabic — because it’s a word that means struggle.”
