Imad Salhab’s protest appearance
On December 16, 2023, a host of local anti-Israel organizations, including JVP Philly, Philly Palestine Coalition (PPC) and CAIR Philly, held a rally outside Philadelphia’s City Hall.
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. This accusation has been a pretext for Arab attacks on Jews long before Israel was founded in 1948. Such propaganda has led to multiple periods of violence against Israeli civilians.
