Jishan Ahmed’s protest appearance

On October 21, 2023, protesters held a pro-Hamas rally in central Philadelphia where activists praised Hamas leaders like Abu Obeida. In the march to the rally, activists repeatedly chanted in support of Israel’s destruction and called for “Intifada,” a show of support for terrorism. Chants in Arabic were more explicit as they incited religious violence and proclaimed that the “shahid habib Allah [martyr is beloved by God]!”
One such pro-terror chant also demanding Israel’s destruction was: “There is only one solution! Intifada, Revolution! There is only one solution! Intifada, Revolution! Intifada, Intifada! Long live the Intifada! Intifada, Intifada! Long live the Intifada! From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free! From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free!”
