For 75 years, there’s been ethnic cleansing.” Israel was founded 75 years earlier, in 1948. Hill also said [00:05:56]: “We demand a ceasefire now! But the work doesn’t stop there. We demand decolonization. We demand an end to the occupation!”
Hamas intentionally targeted youth centers and elementary schools to execute and kidnap children. They also took stimulant drugs to give added energy to murder and maim. Nazis also took drugs during World War II to fuel their anti-Semitic massacres.
On October 17, 2023, the terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) fired rockets at Israel from Gaza, one of which misfired and fell on the parking lot of the al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital.

In the article, Farrakhan said: “The Satanic Jews and their Allies fear being exposed and that is the role of the Messiah, to reveal the Man of Sin. When He comes, He has to expose those forces, those wicked ones that have caused the blood shedding and the mischief that’s going on in the world … Once the world sees this Synagogue of Satan as it really is and knows the players, they fear what will happen to them. The world will turn against them and that is happening now as we speak.”
Louis Farrakhan has been the leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI), which is considered the “largest Black nationalist organization in the U.S.,” since 1977.

Blaming Israel for Hamas War Crimes
On October 28, 2023, following a massacre of 1,400 Israeli Jews by the terror group Hamas, Hill was a featured speaker at an anti-Israel rally in Philadelphia organized by the Philly Palestine Coalition.At the rally, Hill said [00:00:46]: “The truth is that history didn’t start on October 7.” He later said [00:01:39]: “For 100 years there’s been a settler-colonial project. For 75 years, there’s been ethnic cleansing.” Israel was founded 75 years earlier, in 1948. Hill also said [00:05:56]: “We demand a ceasefire now! But the work doesn’t stop there. We demand decolonization. We demand an end to the occupation!”
On Saturday, October 7, 2023, approximately 2,900 heavily armed Hamas terrorists breached Israel’s border with Gaza. They executed numerous war crimes on civilians, including mass murder, beheadings of children, rape of men and women, torture, kidnappings and mutilation. Hamas broadcast videos of their butchery on social media, often to victims’ accounts for families to see. Israel retaliated with a war called “Swords of Iron.”
As of November 10, 2023, approximately 1,200 Israelis, the vast majority of them civilians, were murdered during the attacks. Hamas kidnapped 242 Israelis, including at least 30 children. At least 3,500 people were wounded, many severely.
As of December 25, 2023, Hamas had fired over 10,600 missiles from Gaza at Israeli communities, with Hamas claiming 5,000 the day it launched the attack. While Hamas was the main group involved, members of other terror groups also joined in the atrocities.
Many Palestinian civilians, including women and children, also participated in the attack. In several instances, Gazans who worked in the targeted Israeli communities gave intelligence to Hamas on where to strike.
In a December 2023 poll, 57% of Gazans and 82% of Palestinians in the West Bank supported the terror attacks. 42% of Gazans were supportive of Hamas rule, up from 38% before the attacks, and 44% in the West Bank supported Hamas, up from 12%.
Hamas began by launching thousands of rockets at Israel and using motorized paragliders “to infiltrate Israeli territory and secure terrain.” Terrorist ground forces destroyed parts of the border fence with Gaza, murdering and kidnapping soldiers.
Terrorists then turned their attention to 22 communities around Gaza, where they went house to house to savagely murder, mutilate and kidnap anyone they found. They executed children in front of their parents and parents in front of their children.
Terrorists beheaded children and babies, and massacred entire families, burning some alive who hid in their homes. Hamas terrorists kicked around the heads of beheaded victims like soccer balls. Israelis as young as an infant of nine months and as old as 85 were kidnapped and taken forcibly to Gaza. Hamas has not allowed the Red Cross access to the hostages.
Over 360 unarmed young men and women were surrounded and slaughtered at one music festival alone. Bodies were publicly desecrated, with some dragged through the streets of Gaza, then beheaded.
Women were raped next to the bodies of dead friends. Some were raped and then shot in the head. Others, including young girls, were raped and murdered or mutilated in other ways. Israeli officials opened an unprecedented investigation into the widespread sexual assault. Forensic analysis of corpses showed evidence of torture and rape. Hamas terrorists said they were given explicit orders to carry out the atrocities, including chopping off legs and raping the corpses of murdered victims.
A terrorist detained by Israel admitted he raped an Israeli woman when he broke into a kibbutz house during the October 7, 2023 attack. In March 2024, a former hostage of Hamas publicly stated she was sexually abused and tortured while in captivity.
Hamas intentionally targeted youth centers and elementary schools to execute and kidnap children. They also took stimulant drugs to give added energy to murder and maim. Nazis also took drugs during World War II to fuel their anti-Semitic massacres.
The atrocities were acknowledged as the worst single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, including by U.S. President Joe Biden, who also compared Hamas to ISIS. Hamas attacked on the annual holiday of Simchat Torah, which that year was on Shabbat, the weekly Jewish Sabbath.
The Hamas atrocities against Israeli civilians are crimes against humanity according to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
The mass murder generated great sympathy for Israel from many countries but led to countless celebrations among Palestinians and anti-Israel organizations in America that back the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement.
Hamas called the October 7, 2023 terror attacks “Al-Aqsa Flood,” a reference to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. The allegation that Jews “threaten” to destroy the mosque 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.
Hamas is a designated terrorist organization founded in 1987 that is dedicated to destroying Israel and killing Jews. Since 2001, Hamas has launched thousands of rockets at Israel and on October 7, 2023, Hamas murdered approximately 1,200 Israelis and kidnapped over 200 hostages, including children and the elderly.
In the same speech, Hill also said [00:04:13]: “I can’t get free until you [Palestine] get free! As long as our police are training Israeli officers and as long as Israeli officers are training our officers, we will live in hyper security states that treats every Brown person, every Black person as an outsider, as a threat, as somebody worthy of death. We got to end the Deadly Exchange.”
In 2017, JVP launched the “Deadly Exchange” (DX) campaign, accusing American Jewish organizations of promoting human rights abuses by coordinating exchange programs between American and Israeli security personnel to advance “worst practices" and racist policies. The campaign blamed [00:04:04] Jewish organizations for violence against Black and Brown communities, immigrants and activists in the U.S.
Hill continued [00:04:52]: “Tonight we demand a ceasefire [between Israel and Hamas]...Tonight we demand that no more hospitals [in Gaza] are crumbled…It is a violation of human decency!”

Promoting Anti-Semitism
On March 8, 2016, Hill shared to Facebook an article featuring an interview with Louis Farrakhan.In the article, Farrakhan said: “The Satanic Jews and their Allies fear being exposed and that is the role of the Messiah, to reveal the Man of Sin. When He comes, He has to expose those forces, those wicked ones that have caused the blood shedding and the mischief that’s going on in the world … Once the world sees this Synagogue of Satan as it really is and knows the players, they fear what will happen to them.

Supporting a Terrorist
As of October 2020, Hill had expressed support for Ali Jiddah at least 14 times on socialmedia and actively assisted in running a 2016 fundraiser for him.Ali Jiddah is a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist who spent 17 years in Israeli prison after blasts from four hand grenades he planted in downtown Jerusalem injured nine people, in 1968.
On October 18, 2016, Hill posted to Facebook a GoFundMe page in support of Ali Jiddah.
In the post, Hill praised Jiddah for being “instrumental in the struggle for Palestinian liberation” and said he “personally” dictated the fundraising page’s letter.

On February 21, 2019, Jiddah was featured [00:00:01] on Facebook in the trailer for the documentary film, titled: “Black in the Holy Land.” Hill was director and executive producer for the film.
Celebrating Violence
On October 30, 2015, Hill posted to Instagram a photo of a new tattoo he got which portrayed a man masked in a keffiyeh and holding a rock.Although romanticized as a form of “popular resistance,” rock throwing remains a deadly form of violence.
On January 23, 2017, Hill tweeted: “...I think that resistance (not terrorism!) is an acceptable response to military occupation.”
On September 28, 2018, Hill appeared [00:00:04] in a YouTube video from the USCPR 2018 National Conference. During the opening plenary session, Hill said [00:30:59] that people should not “romanticize non-violence.”
Hill continued [00:31:32]: “To me, ‘Hands Up Don’t Shoot’ was always problematic, ‘cause this isn’t the posture I want to have against a violent state. If I’ma do this, I ain’t trying to be like this, I’m going, I’m going Leila Khaled style, right? But. Yeah, yeah, I know, I’m probably fired right now. But, f**k it, might as well get it done then, right? Might as well go all the way.”
On June 28, 2020, Hill appeared in a YouTube video where he said [00:22:47] that ongoing riots after the death of George Floyd, a black man who was arrested and killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, were “significant” and “valuable.”
During the speech, Hill said [00:20:46]: “So as we stand here on the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the tragic commemoration of the Nakba, we have an opportunity to not just offer solidarity in words, but to commit to political action, grassroots action, local action, and international action that will give us what justice requires. And that is a free Palestine from the river to the sea.”
In the same UN speech, Hill claimed [00:16:19] that Israel practices “ethnic cleansing.” He later said [00:17:38]: “Radical hope is a belief that despite the odds, despite the considerable measures against justice and peace despite the legacy of hatred and imperialism, and white supremacy, and patriarchy, and homophobia, despite the systems of power that have normalized settler colonialism, despite these structures, we can still win, we can still prevail.”
On November 29, 2018, CNN fired Hill from his position as a contributor, following the controversial comments he made at a special meeting held at the UN for “International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.”
On November 29, 2018, Temple announced that Hill would retain his position at the university despite the controversy.
That same day, Hill tweeted: ��In my speech, I talked about the need to return to the pre-1967 borders, to give full rights to Palestinian citizens of Israel, and to allow right of return. No part of this is a call to destroy Israel. It’s absurd on its face.”
Addameer is an NGO that advocates on behalf of prisoners held in Israeli jail, including many terrorists such as Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) recruiters Mohammad Allan and Khader Adnan. Addameer’s senior leadership includes [pp. 29-35] senior Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorists like Khalida Jarrar, whom Addameer also advocates for. In 2021, Israel officially designated Addameer as a terror organization.
On August 2, 2018, Hill posted to Instagram two videos and two photos from the July 31, 2018 event with Francis. In the first video, he praised [00:00:38] Addameer as “a group that’s committed to freedom fighting.”
In the Instagram post’s second video, Hill said [00:00:22]: “To talk about state violence, to talk about mass incarceration, to talk about land theft, to talk about unchecked power, to talk about white supremacy, to talk about capitalism is to talk about the existence of a settler-colonial state which is what we are in right now.”
On April 30, 2018, Hill wrote on Facebook about a talk he gave at an SJP event that discussed “displacement and settler colonialism in relation to the occupation of Palestine and gentrification in Philadelphia.”
On August 27, 2017, Hill posted to Instagram a video featuring BDS movement founder Omar Barghouti. Hill wrote: “Sitting down with Omar Barghouti, discussing academic boycotts. I always learn something new when I talk to him.”
On May 18, 2016, Hill posted to Instagram a video that featured Barghouti speaking to a DD delegation. Hill said Barghouti spoke about “the fallacy of the ‘academic freedom’ argument” against BDS.
Barghouti said [00:00:06]: “So pressure your god d***n institution to stop its complicity and then we’ll stop boycotting you! So they, in order not to lose the privileges of our whites, the Jewish Israelis, we cannot call for a boycott for our basic rights, basic rights, all rights that were denied because of the apartheid and occupation system. So, that’s a failure in this argument. You’re concerned about the master’s privileges, not the slaves’ actual profound rights, profound fundamental rights.”
On January 13, 2015, Hill appeared [00:02:24] in a Vimeo video from the northern Israeli city of Nazareth during a pro-BDS trip to Israel with DD. He said [00:02:38]: “We came here to Palestine to stand in love and revolutionary struggle with our brothers and sisters. We come to a land that has been stolen by greed and destroyed by hate.”
Hill continued [00:02:50]: “We come here and we learn laws that have been co-signed in ink but written in the blood of the innocent. And we stand next to people who continue to courageously struggle and resist the occupation. People continue to dream and fight for freedom. From Ferguson to Palestine, the struggle for freedom continues.”
In August 2016, BDS leader Ilan Pappé admitted that BDS was not initiated by a “call” from Palestinian civil society; rather, it was initiated by a small number of radical anti-Israel extremists.
On February 15, 2017, Hill tweeted: “i have some thoughts. I think BDS is a good first step, but so much more is needed. We need international pressure.”
On April 23, 2016, Hill posed in a Facebook photo holding a sign in support of a BDS campaign that called on the American Anthropological Association (AAA) to boycott Israeli academic institutions.
On January 21, 2015, Hill tweeted: “I support BDS in Israel because it's the best remaining option to end the longest occupation in modern history.”
The BLA was a violent “Nationalist/Separatist” group with the stated goal to “take up arms for the liberation and self-determination of black people in the United States.” The group was active from 1970 to 1981 and its members were involved in bank robberies, the murder of police officers and other crimes.
On July 16, 2020, Hill posted to Instagram a series of photos of Shakur, where he called her “Mama Assata” and “one of our most treasured Freedom Fighters.”
Hill’s post began: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 73rd birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life. She taught me about the value and power of Freedom Dreams. She showed me the beauty of struggle.”
On July 16, 2018, Hill posted to Instagram photos of Shakur and wrote: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 71st birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life … Thank you Mama Assata. Wishing you 100 more years! #palenquequeen #handsoffassata #freeallpoliticalprisoners #everysingleone.”
On July 16, 2017, Hill posted to Instagram photos of Shakur and wrote: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 70th birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life … Thank you Mama Assata. Wishing you 100 more years! #palenquequeen #handsoffassata #freeallpoliticalprisoners.”
On July 16, 2015, Hill posted to Instagram a photo of him with a tattoo of Shakur on his right shoulder.
On December 31, 2014, Hill posted on Facebook a quote attributed to Shakur that said: “Part of being a revolutionary is creating a vision that is more humane. That is more fun, too. That is more loving. It's really working to create something beautiful."
On July 16, 2010, Hill wrote on Facebook: “Giving thanks to the Creator for the life of Assata Shakur, who celebrates her 63rd born day today.”
On September 27, 2009, Hill tweeted: “Assata Shakur is an American hero & freedom fighter. I'll always stand next to her. Also, a review of the facts shows that SHE IS INNOCENT.”
On February 19, 2020, Hill posted to Facebook a petition in support of Mutulu Shakur.
On September 29, 2014, Hill posted to Facebook in support of Sundiata Acoli.
Sundiata Acoli was convicted of killing a New Jersey State trooper and wounding another in 1973. One of Acoli’s accomplices was fellow Black Liberation Army (BLA) member Assata Shakur.
On March 1, 2017, Hill tweeted: “i never said the people who met with trump were mediocre negroes. I was referring specifically to the diversity council.”
On September 14, 2019, Hill tweeted: “Bruh..: The Caucasity of it all....,” in response to a video of a white sports commentator arguing against college athletes getting paid.
“Caucasity” can be defined as “the audacity of white people. Meaning, the willingness to take bold risks only white people feel safe doing.”
On July 10, 2019, Hill tweeted: “ ... America was founded on white supremacy.”
On June 24, 2019, Hill tweeted: “Reparations is an attempt to repair the lingering social, cultural, and economic damage of slavery, which is directly tied to America’s original sins of white supremacy & racial capitalism. It addresses the root cause. Therefore, it is radical.”
Cheney-Lippold sparked major controversy in September 2018, when he declined to write a recommendation letter for a student to study abroad in Israel.
In an October 3, 2018 letter, the University of Michigan disciplined Cheney-Lippold by issuing a number of sanctions, including ineligibility “for a salary increase for the 2018-2019 academic year.” Further, Cheney-Lippold’s sabbatical eligibility and credits were frozen for two years “until the Fall 2020 semester.”

On September 28, 2018, Hill appeared [00:00:04] in a YouTube video from the USCPR 2018 National Conference. During the opening plenary session, Hill said [00:30:59] that people should not “romanticize non-violence.”
Hill continued [00:31:32]: “To me, ‘Hands Up Don’t Shoot’ was always problematic, ‘cause this isn’t the posture I want to have against a violent state.

But, f**k it, might as well get it done then, right? Might as well go all the way.”
Khaled is a leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and participated in the hijacking of TWA Flight 840 in 1969 and El Al Flight 219 in 1970. As of 2017, Khaled was a member of PFLP's Political Bureau.
Khaled has said that the second intifada failed because it was not violent enough, advocated for the use of children in terror activities and compared Zionists to Nazis.
The PFLP claimed credit for the 2014 Har Nof Massacre where six people were murdered during morning prayers in a Jerusalem synagogue. The PFLP also claimed credit for the 2001 assassination of the Israeli tourism minister.
On June 28, 2020, Hill appeared in a YouTube video where he said [00:22:47] that ongoing riots after the death of George Floyd, a black man who was arrested and killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, were “significant” and “valuable.”
Hill then said [00:23:31]: “Getting the nation to stop and pay attention often requires the spectacle, the spectacle of violence. Right? I’m not talking about killing people. I’m not even talking about doing harm to people. I’m talking about even, like, tearing up a store.”
Hill continued by equating rioters to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and civil rights marchers in Selma, Alabama in 1965 and said [00:23:42]: “Martin Luther King leveraged the spectacle of violence to get America to pay attention. The only difference is Martin King said that we’re going to strategize so that we get beat … the idea of being on Pettus bridge was, you know, that if we protest here, that these police will come and harm us and that America will see how brutal...”
On October 13, 2015, Hill wrote an article for the Huffington Post titled: “Why Every Black Activist Should Stand With Rasmea Odeh.” Hill called Odeh a “venerable woman” and a “Palestinian freedom fighter.”
He defended Odeh regarding her immigration fraud conviction, writing: “This is why Odeh is appealing the conviction, and why I am supporting her.”

Glorifying Terrorists
On January 5, 2015, Hill posted to Instagram a mural of terrorist leader Marwan Barghouti painted on Israel’s security barrier. Hill wrote: “Art as Resistance.”Marwan Barghouti is currently serving five consecutive life sentences for his role in suicide bombings and shooting attacks that killed five Israelis during the second intifada.
Barghouti led the Palestinian Authority (PA) terrorist Tanzim force and founded the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. He also financed the guitar-case bomb used in the Sbarro Cafe massacre, where 15 civilians were killed and 130 injured.
Israel’s security barrier, 97 percent of which is a low chain-link barrier, was built as a deterrent to Palestinian terror attacks. The concrete portions of the fence were built in response to Palestinian sniper attacks.
On October 13, 2015, Hill wrote an article for the Huffington Post titled: “Why Every Black Activist Should Stand With Rasmea Odeh.” Hill called Odeh a “venerable woman” and a “Palestinian freedom fighter.”
He defended Odeh regarding her immigration fraud conviction, writing: “This is why Odeh is appealing the conviction, and why I am supporting her.”
Odeh was a military operative with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), an internationally designated terrorist organization. In 1969, she masterminded a bombing that killed two university students in a Jerusalem supermarket. Odeh also attempted to bomb the British consulate.
Odeh confessed, in a highly detailed account, the day following her arrest. In a 2004 documentary, one of Odeh’s co-conspirators directly implicated her as the mastermind.
In 1970, an Israeli court tried and convicted Odeh for her involvement in both bombings and sentenced her to life imprisonment. However, Odeh was released 10 years later, in a prisoner swap and emigrated to the United States. In 2017, Odeh was deported to Jordan and stripped of U.S. citizenship, after admitting to immigration fraud.
Fired From CNN
On November 28, 2018, Hill gave [00:00:01] a speech at the UN that resulted in his termination from CNN (Cable News Network) the following day.During the speech, Hill said [00:20:46]: “So as we stand here on the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the tragic commemoration of the Nakba, we have an opportunity to not just offer solidarity in words, but to commit to political action, grassroots action, local action, and international action that will give us what justice requires. And that is a free Palestine from the river to the sea.”
“From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free” is a chant used [00:02:47] to call for the elimination of the State of Israel. It has also been employed by Hamas leader Khaled Mashal to call for the replacement of Israel with an Islamic state. In April 2024, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution condemning the chant as antisemitic.
In the same UN speech, Hill claimed [00:16:19] that Israel practices “ethnic cleansing.” He later said [00:17:38]: “Radical hope is a belief that despite the odds, despite the considerable measures against justice and peace despite the legacy of hatred and imperialism, and white supremacy, and patriarchy, and homophobia, despite the systems of power that have normalized settler colonialism, despite these structures, we can still win, we can still prevail.”
On November 29, 2018, CNN fired Hill from his position as a contributor, following the controversial comments he made at a special meeting held at the UN for “International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.”
On November 29, 2018, Temple announced that Hill would retain his position at the university despite the controversy.
That same day, Hill tweeted: ��In my speech, I talked about the need to return to the pre-1967 borders, to give full rights to Palestinian citizens of Israel, and to allow right of return. No part of this is a call to destroy Israel. It’s absurd on its face.”
The “right of return” is a Palestinian demand discredited as a means to eliminate Israel. International law mandates no absolute right of return and UN Resolution 194, which defined principles for “refugees wishing to return to their homes,” was unanimously rejected by Arab nations following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
Speaking at the Pro-Hamas Encampment at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn)
On May 6, 2024, the Philly Palestine Coalition posted a flyer on Instagram promoting Hill as a speaker at the encampment. The text beside the post said: “TONIGHT @ 7:30 PM
Meet us at the UPenn encampment at 34th & Walnut to hear guest speaker @marclamonthill 
Bring your fellow comrades, a blanket, and support the movement 
/ Hands off Rafah/ End the Siege on Gaza.”
The watermelon has been appropriated by anti-Israel activists as a symbol of Palestinian "resistance" to "Israeli occupation," as it shares the Pan-Arab colors.
As of the same date, Hill was featured in another post on Instagram speaking at the same event, saying [00:00:33]: “...this is a principled struggle against Zionism.” He continued [00:02:31]: “...the opposition didn't start on October 7th, they’d love you to believe that the opposition started on October 7th…”
On April 25, 2024, anti-Israel activists from Penn, Temple University and Drexel University set up the "Gaza Solidarity Encampment" on the Penn campus to protest Israel's war against Hamas.
The encampment was one of over 140 pro-Hamas and anti-Israel college encampments set up in North America, and over 20 more globally, in the spring of 2024. The first began on April 17, 2024, at Columbia University. The encampments were unofficially known as the “student intifada,” borrowing a term associated with terrorist violence.
Protesters harassed Jewish students, blocked Jews from campus facilities and shouted anti-Semitic slogans. They occupied campus grounds, in many cases illegally, caused property damage, violently took over buildings, celebrated terrorism and promoted the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement.
Activists set up encampments to oppose Israel’s right to wage war against the Hamas terror group following October 7, 2023, when Hamas murdered approximately 1,200 people, including 32 American and 8 Canadian citizens. Hamas also kidnapped 252 people, including 11 Americans and the bodies of 2 murdered Canadians. As of May 26, 2024, 125 hostages remained in Hamas captivity.
For more information on the October 7, 2023 terror attacks, see the Canary Mission page on Hamas.
Anti-Israel Activism
On July 26, 2018, Hill posted to Instagram an image promoting a July 31, 2018 event in Jerusalem that featured him and Sahar Francis, the General Director of the Ramallah-based group Addameer.Addameer is an NGO that advocates on behalf of prisoners held in Israeli jail, including many terrorists such as Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) recruiters Mohammad Allan and Khader Adnan. Addameer’s senior leadership includes [pp. 29-35] senior Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorists like Khalida Jarrar, whom Addameer also advocates for. In 2021, Israel officially designated Addameer as a terror organization.
On August 2, 2018, Hill posted to Instagram two videos and two photos from the July 31, 2018 event with Francis. In the first video, he praised [00:00:38] Addameer as “a group that’s committed to freedom fighting.”
In the Instagram post’s second video, Hill said [00:00:22]: “To talk about state violence, to talk about mass incarceration, to talk about land theft, to talk about unchecked power, to talk about white supremacy, to talk about capitalism is to talk about the existence of a settler-colonial state which is what we are in right now.”
On April 30, 2018, Hill wrote on Facebook about a talk he gave at an SJP event that discussed “displacement and settler colonialism in relation to the occupation of Palestine and gentrification in Philadelphia.”
On August 27, 2017, Hill posted to Instagram a video featuring BDS movement founder Omar Barghouti. Hill wrote: “Sitting down with Omar Barghouti, discussing academic boycotts. I always learn something new when I talk to him.”
Omar Barghouti founded the BDS movement in July 2005 and the Palestinian Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions National Committee (BNC) in November 2007.
On May 18, 2016, Hill posted to Instagram a video that featured Barghouti speaking to a DD delegation. Hill said Barghouti spoke about “the fallacy of the ‘academic freedom’ argument” against BDS.
Barghouti said [00:00:06]: “So pressure your god d***n institution to stop its complicity and then we’ll stop boycotting you! So they, in order not to lose the privileges of our whites, the Jewish Israelis, we cannot call for a boycott for our basic rights, basic rights, all rights that were denied because of the apartheid and occupation system. So, that’s a failure in this argument. You’re concerned about the master’s privileges, not the slaves’ actual profound rights, profound fundamental rights.”
On January 13, 2015, Hill appeared [00:02:24] in a Vimeo video from the northern Israeli city of Nazareth during a pro-BDS trip to Israel with DD. He said [00:02:38]: “We came here to Palestine to stand in love and revolutionary struggle with our brothers and sisters. We come to a land that has been stolen by greed and destroyed by hate.”
Hill continued [00:02:50]: “We come here and we learn laws that have been co-signed in ink but written in the blood of the innocent. And we stand next to people who continue to courageously struggle and resist the occupation. People continue to dream and fight for freedom. From Ferguson to Palestine, the struggle for freedom continues.”
Demonizing Israel
On February 6, 2021, Hill spoke in an online panel discussion where he said [00:02:32]: “Black Lives Matter very explicitly is talking about the dismantling of a Zionist project, dismantling of a settler-colonial project and very explicitly embracing BDS.”Hill also said [00:00:17]: “At the analytical level, we understand that we can’t dismantle white supremacy or imperialism section-by-section. These systems don’t have passports or visas. They don’t stop at borders. These are international, transnational movements and so there’s no way to stop a settler colonial movement in Palestine and not be mindful of its relationship to a settler-colonial project in New Zealand or Australia or the United States.”
On June 5, 2020, Hill wrote on Facebook against Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream doing business in Israel and implied that Israel practices “White Supremacy.”
On January 25, 2019, Hill tweeted: “a key argument for the Jewish state is that if provides safety for Jewish brothers and sisters around the diaspora. If that state is unstable because of the conflict it has impact for the whole world.”
On September 28, 2018, Hill claimed [00:31:08] in a YouTube video that Israel was “poisoning” Palestinian water.
On July 6, 2018, Hill posted to Facebook a photo of two Israeli border policemen, including one who is an Ethiopian Jew. He wrote: “Though I see it every day, I still shake my head when I see African police and soldiers. Standing on the frontlines of empire while experiencing second class citizenship.”
On June 30, 2018, Hill posted to Facebook an event notice that showed a series of maps that are reminiscent of misleading maps that claim that lands once controlled by Britain, Egypt and Jordan as autonomous “Palestinian land,” were purportedly stolen by Israel.

In February 2016, publisher McGraw-Hill Education recalled copies of a college-level textbook that contained the fraudulent maps. In October 2015, the United States cable news network MSNBC apologized for airing a similar series of maps and retracted them.
On May 15, 2018, Hill wrote on Facebook: “This is not about religion. It's about land theft, expulsion, and ethnic cleansing by foreign settlers to indigenous land.” He also falsely claimed: “That said, every major Palestinian organization has acknowledged Israel's right to exist.”

One way anti-Israel activists spread anti-Semitism is by denying [00:17:45] Jewish history, with the aim of delegitimizing restored Jewish sovereignty, attacking Israel’s legitimacy and portraying Jews as foreign to the Land of Israel.
On May 4, 2018, Hill posted to Facebook an image promoting an anti-Israel event he was scheduled to speak at called: “Palestine Lives: Resisting Settler Colonialism Since 1948,” making reference to the year Israel was founded.
On April 23, 2018, Hill spoke at AMP’s 2018 banquet in New Jersey. In a video from the event posted to Facebook, Hill said [00:12:47]: “The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee said that Israel is wrong, that Zionism is an evil … Let us continue to fight, let us continue to dream and believe that we can come home again, that violence can defeat, can be defeated, excuse me, although violence can defeat too.”
Hill then claimed [00:13:43] that “Jerusalem is under attack” and “under siege.” He concluded [00:14:01] with his desire that “Palestine will once again be returned to its rightful owners.” He also praised [00:05:13] “peaceful protesters” who attempted [00:05:24] “a return to land march” on the Israeli-Gaza border.
On March 30, 2018, some 30,000 Palestinians in Gaza approached Israel’s border to take part in “Land Day Protests” or the “March of Return.” The violent demonstrations were instigated by Hamas on the Israeli-Gaza border. Participants declared their intention to harm Jews across the border under the pretext of “peaceful resistance.”
March participants sent scores of kites bearing explosive devices across Israel’s border to burn Israeli crops and homes. Rioters also made numerous attempts to breach Israel’s border fence, which caused the Israeli Defense Forces to respond with live fire.
On May 24, 2017, Hill claimed on Facebook that Israel has practiced “settler-colonialism” and “ethnic cleansing.”
On June 7, 2016, Hill tweeted: “Israel is very much, by definition, an apartheid state.”
On May 15, 2016, Hill wrote on Facebook against the “Nakba” and said: “We must fight against the illegal Israeli occupation. We must reject the settler-colonial project.”
On August 2, 2015, Hill tweeted: “I believe that Israel occupies Palestine. That's a fact. Not antisemitic.”

March participants sent scores of kites bearing explosive devices across Israel’s border to burn Israeli crops and homes. Rioters also made numerous attempts to breach Israel’s border fence, which caused the Israeli Defense Forces to respond with live fire.
Agitators also threw Molotov cocktails, firebombs, shot firearms and threw rocks under the cover of smoke from burning tires.

On May 15, 2016, Hill wrote on Facebook against the “Nakba” and said: “We must fight against the illegal Israeli occupation. We must reject the settler-colonial project.”
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.”
On August 2, 2015, Hill tweeted: “I believe that Israel occupies Palestine. That's a fact. Not antisemitic.”
Supporting BDS
On February 17, 2017, Hill published an article in the Huffington Post titled: “Why I Applaud The NFL Players Who Spoke Out Against Israel,” where he promoted BDS. Hill wrote: “More than a decade ago, Palestinians called on allies around the world to support their struggle for freedom, justice and equality by using boycotts, divestments and sanctions (BDS) to pressure Israel to respect international law.”In August 2016, BDS leader Ilan Pappé admitted that BDS was not initiated by a “call” from Palestinian civil society; rather, it was initiated by a small number of radical anti-Israel extremists.
On February 15, 2017, Hill tweeted: “i have some thoughts. I think BDS is a good first step, but so much more is needed. We need international pressure.”
On April 23, 2016, Hill posed in a Facebook photo holding a sign in support of a BDS campaign that called on the American Anthropological Association (AAA) to boycott Israeli academic institutions.
On January 21, 2015, Hill tweeted: “I support BDS in Israel because it's the best remaining option to end the longest occupation in modern history.”
Idolizing a Domestic Terrorist
As of October 2020, Hill has shown support for domestic terrorist Assata Shakur at least 110 times on social media.Assata Shakur was convicted of killing a New Jersey state trooper and wounding another in 1973 while a member of the separatist Black Liberation Army (BLA). She escaped from prison in 1979 and fled to Cuba in 1984, where she resides today. She is listed on the FBI Most Wanted Terror List under her legal name, Joanne Deborah Chesimard.
The BLA was a violent “Nationalist/Separatist” group with the stated goal to “take up arms for the liberation and self-determination of black people in the United States.” The group was active from 1970 to 1981 and its members were involved in bank robberies, the murder of police officers and other crimes.
On July 16, 2020, Hill posted to Instagram a series of photos of Shakur, where he called her “Mama Assata” and “one of our most treasured Freedom Fighters.”
Hill’s post began: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 73rd birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life. She taught me about the value and power of Freedom Dreams. She showed me the beauty of struggle.”
On July 16, 2018, Hill posted to Instagram photos of Shakur and wrote: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 71st birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life … Thank you Mama Assata. Wishing you 100 more years! #palenquequeen #handsoffassata #freeallpoliticalprisoners #everysingleone.”
On July 16, 2017, Hill posted to Instagram photos of Shakur and wrote: “Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 70th birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life … Thank you Mama Assata. Wishing you 100 more years! #palenquequeen #handsoffassata #freeallpoliticalprisoners.”
On July 16, 2015, Hill posted to Instagram a photo of him with a tattoo of Shakur on his right shoulder.
On December 31, 2014, Hill posted on Facebook a quote attributed to Shakur that said: “Part of being a revolutionary is creating a vision that is more humane. That is more fun, too. That is more loving. It's really working to create something beautiful."
On July 16, 2010, Hill wrote on Facebook: “Giving thanks to the Creator for the life of Assata Shakur, who celebrates her 63rd born day today.”
On September 27, 2009, Hill tweeted: “Assata Shakur is an American hero & freedom fighter. I'll always stand next to her. Also, a review of the facts shows that SHE IS INNOCENT.”
Honoring Violent Activists
On August 1, 2020, Hill posted to Instagram an image (third image in the post), honoring Mutulu Shakur.Mutulu Shakur, brother of Assata Shakur, was a Black Liberation Army (BLA) member convicted for his involvement in a 1981 Brinks robbery where two police officers and one Brinks security guard were murdered. He was also involved in the 1979 prison break of his sister and fellow BLA member Assata, who was jailed for the murder of a police officer in 1973.
On February 19, 2020, Hill posted to Facebook a petition in support of Mutulu Shakur.
On September 29, 2014, Hill posted to Facebook in support of Sundiata Acoli.
Sundiata Acoli was convicted of killing a New Jersey State trooper and wounding another in 1973. One of Acoli’s accomplices was fellow Black Liberation Army (BLA) member Assata Shakur.
Spreading Bigotry
On January 17, 2017, Hill said [00:01:49] on CNN that black leaders on the National Diversity Coalition for Trump are “mediocre negroes.”On March 1, 2017, Hill tweeted: “i never said the people who met with trump were mediocre negroes. I was referring specifically to the diversity council.”
On September 14, 2019, Hill tweeted: “Bruh..: The Caucasity of it all....,” in response to a video of a white sports commentator arguing against college athletes getting paid.
“Caucasity” can be defined as “the audacity of white people. Meaning, the willingness to take bold risks only white people feel safe doing.”
Spreading Hatred of America
On September 9, 2017, Hill posted to Instagram of him wearing a sweatshirt that said: “Make America Not Racist For the First Time.”On July 10, 2019, Hill tweeted: “ ... America was founded on white supremacy.”
On June 24, 2019, Hill tweeted: “Reparations is an attempt to repair the lingering social, cultural, and economic damage of slavery, which is directly tied to America’s original sins of white supremacy & racial capitalism. It addresses the root cause. Therefore, it is radical.”
Promoting an Anti-Israel Professor
On September 19, 2018, Hill shared to Facebook an article about John Cheney-Lippold titled: “U. of Michigan Professor Refuses to Recommend Student Whose Destination Is Israel.” Hill wrote: “Good for this professor. (I hate this bogus headline.)”Cheney-Lippold sparked major controversy in September 2018, when he declined to write a recommendation letter for a student to study abroad in Israel.
In an October 3, 2018 letter, the University of Michigan disciplined Cheney-Lippold by issuing a number of sanctions, including ineligibility “for a salary increase for the 2018-2019 academic year.” Further, Cheney-Lippold’s sabbatical eligibility and credits were frozen for two years “until the Fall 2020 semester.”
BDS
The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement was founded by Omar Barghouti in 2005 to challenge “international support for Israeli apartheid and settler-colonialism.” BDS is an allegedly “Palestinian-led movement,” although leading BDS activists have admitted [00:01:01] this is not true.
One of the demands of BDS includes [point 3] what is generally known as the “right of return,” a demand discredited as a way to eliminate Israel. Barghouti said the “right of return” is a means to “end Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.”
Barghouti has said that BDS “aims to turn Israel into a pariah state, as South Africa once was.”
In his activism, Barghouti has also said [00:05:55] regarding Israel: “Definitely, most definitely, we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine. No…rational Palestinian, not a sellout Palestinian, will ever accept a Jewish state in Palestine.”
The movement has been linked to numerous terrorist organizations and received a public endorsement from Hamas in 2017.
BDS initiatives include calling on institutions and individuals to divest from Israeli-affiliated companies, promoting academic and cultural boycotts of Israel, and organizing anti-Israel rallies, protests and campaigns.
The movement’s most notable achievement has been the infiltration of university campuses through lobbying for “BDS resolutions.” In these cases, student governments and student groups, backed by their own anti-Israel members and affiliates, have proposed resolutions on some form of boycott of, or divestment from, Israel and Israeli-affiliated entities.
Boycott resolutions, although non-binding, have been passed by student governments on numerous North American campuses.
BDS activity is often aggressive and disruptive. It has been noted that universities that pass BDS resolutions see a marked increase in anti-Semitic incidents on campus. On one campus, when the student government debated a BDS resolution, reports emerged of violent threats against those opposing it.

Infamous Quotes
“To me, ‘Hands Up Don’t Shoot’ was always problematic, ‘cause this isn’t the posture I want to have against a violent state. If I’ma do this, I ain’t trying to be like this, I’m going, I’m going Leila Khaled style, right? But. Yeah, yeah, I know, I’m probably fired right now. But, f**k it, might as well get it done then, right? Might as well go all the way.”
“We came here to Palestine to stand in love and revolutionary struggle with our brothers and sisters. We come to a land that has been stolen by greed and destroyed by hate.”
“The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee said that Israel is wrong, that Zionism is an evil …”
“... to talk about white supremacy, to talk about capitalism is to talk about the existence of a settler-colonial state which is what we are in right now.”
“So as we stand here on the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the tragic commemoration of the Nakba, we have an opportunity to not just offer solidarity in words, but to commit to political action, grassroots action, local action, and international action that will give us what justice requires. And that is a free Palestine from the river to the sea.”
