'From the river to the sea ...' is also chanted in Gaza and other places. Yes different people interpret it differently. But the key point is that a significant number of people see it as a call for the destruction of Isreal and the genocide of the Jews there. So if you don't want that to be what you are saying, then avoid the phrase. Or don't, whatever, but suck it up if you are then labeled as a genocide supporter.
