Sean Wakasa

Sean Wakasa participated in four anti-Israel events in Los Angeles, California in 2023-2025. He was reportedly the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) chapter in Los Angeles (DSA-LA) in August 2026.

The profilee's activism occurred during an extended period of global antisemitism that began with the October 7, 2023, terror attacks, when Hamas murdered nearly 1,200 Israelis, injured thousands and kidnapped hundreds. Israel immediately launched a war against Hamas in Gaza.

DSA's ideology includes anti-American and abolitionist elements. DSA justified Hamas murdering 1,200 Israelis on October 7, 2023.

DSA-LA, like national DSA, has spread hatred of America and the police. It has celebrated communism, called to destroy capitalism and defended America’s enemies. Regarding Israel, DSA-LA has expressed support for violence and called for Israel’s destruction, including on October 8, 2023.

As of August 2026, Sean Wakasa was listed as studying for a PhD in the Department of Mathematics at the University of California, Riverside (UC Riverside).

The term “Nakba” is generally translated as “catastrophe” in Arabic, referring to the outcome of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. It is a term used to delegitimize the creation of the State of Israel by drawing a comparison to the Holocaust, known in Hebrew as the Shoah, meaning “catastrophe.”

The “right of return” is a Palestinian demand discredited as a means to eliminate Israel. It is often expressed by showing a key symbol or emoji. International law mandates no absolute right of return and UN Resolution 194, which defined principles for “refugees wishing to return to their homes,” was rejected by all Arab nations following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.

Activists at the march joined in the pro-terror chant [00:02:50]: "There is only one solution! Intifada, revolution! Intifada, intifada! Long live the intifada!"

The term “intifada,” which translates from Arabic as “uprising” or “insurrection,” carries the connotation of violence. Palestinian intifadas waged against Israel have been marked since 1987 by hundreds of hijackings, shootings, stabbings, bombings and suicide missions.

Among Palestinians and anti-Israel activists, the term “resistance” is a euphemism for nationalistic terror and is used to glorify and encourage anti-Israel and antisemitic violence.

The term “genocide” was coined in 1942 and first used at the Nuremberg Trials of Nazi war criminals. Since Israel's founding in 1948, anti-Israel activists have accused Israel of "genocide" in an attempt to compare Jews to Nazis and delegitimize the creation of a Jewish state in the Land of Israel.
