On December 3, 2023, anti-Israel activist groups held a rally titled: “Flood Philly For Gaza.” Participants chanted [00:00:01] in support of terrorism and called [00:00:01] for Israel’s destruction. Protesters also joined [00:33:31] speakers in denying Hamas war crimes. In the evening, the crowd gathered outside Goldie, an Israeli-owned falafel shop, chanting: “Goldie, Goldie, you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide!”
The language of “flood” is a reference to Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, the name Hamas used for their terror operation on October 7, 2023. It is a reference to the allegation that Jews “threaten” to destroy Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque, and has been a pretext for Arab attacks on Jews long before Israel was founded in 1948.
