On October 15, 2023, anti-Israel groups held a pro-Hamas rally in Philadelphia where protesters chanted in support of terrorism and called for Israel’s destruction. Susan Abulhawa, a local anti-Israel activist, equated Israel with Nazi Germany. Her statement was met with cheers. She also denied the Hamas war crimes of October 7, 2023, earlier in her speech.
Denial of the Hamas war crimes of October 7, 2023, among anti-Israel activists has been likened to Holocaust denial among neo-Nazis.
