On October 28, 2023, PPC held a rally at Philadelphia City Hall calling for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and the Hamas terror group. Israel launched the war three weeks earlier after the October 7, 2023, terror attacks.
Speakers at the rally led chants in support of terrorism and calling for Israel’s destruction. One speaker led [00:09:55] the pro-terror chant: “Free, free Palestine! Free, free Palestine! There is only one solution! Intifada, revolution! There is only one solution! Intifada, revolution!”
Speakers said [00:04:10] that beyond a ceasefire, they wanted “liberation,” meaning “ending the siege on Gaza, ending the occupation and decolonizing Palestine from the River to The Sea.” Rallygoers chanted [00:00:02], in Arabic: “From the River to The Sea, Palestine is Arab!” The speaker's statement and the chants are both calls for the destruction of Israel.
