Phillip Josselyn
Phillip Josselyn participated in an anti-Israel event in New York City in 2018 where he wore a shirt that said: "FREE PALESTINE." The event was held in support of the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement.
“Free Palestine!” is a chant used to call for Israel's destruction, acting as a shorter version of "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free!" It was shouted during multiple deadly attacks on pro-Israel activists in 2025 in America. It has been used to vandalize synagogues and other Jewish-owned property, and is described as a "battle cry for the death of Jews.”
As of November 2025, Phillip Josselyn's LinkedIn profile said he worked as a systems analyst at Royce & Associates. His LinkedIn said he was located in New York, New York.
New York City Rally Supports Great March Of Return
View EventDate: May 11, 2018
Organizers: DSA
Location: 780 3rd Ave., New York, NY
Throughout 2018, Hamas organized and funded the “March of Return” riots where tens of thousands of Palestinians approached the Israel-Gaza border, attempting to breach Israel’s security fence. They sent explosive devices into Israel, shot firearms and threw projectiles at Israeli soldiers, necessitating the use of live fire in response.
One Hamas leader declared: “We will take down the border and we will tear out their hearts from their bodies.” The riots highlighted the “right of return,” a demand long discredited as a way to destroy Israel.
During the 2018 March of Return, Hamas routinely directed its members to infiltrate the border between Gaza and Israel to train for an attack on Israeli communities in the area, leading to the October 7, 2023 massacre. For more information, see the Canary Mission page on Hamas.
