On October 17, 2023, ten days after Hamas murdered nearly 1,200 Israelis, a local anti-Israel activist group held a pro-terror rally in Philadelphia.
Protesters participated in chants calling [00:00:19] for Israel’s destruction and promoting [00:00:01] hatred of Israel. Later in the evening, protesters spread religious incitement by chanting: “Be-ruh, be-dam, nifdik ya, Aqsa [With spirit, with blood, we will redeem you, Aqsa]!” The chant referred to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.
