So, the historical use of "from the river to the sea" meaning the destruction of Israel and a single Palestinian (no Jews allowed) state, is suddenly not the case because some new group of Palestinians is using it, but insisting that it doesn't mean what it's always meant?

I guess you thought "The Jews will not replace us!" or "Blood and soil!" chants at UVA meant something completely benign?

PS: "immediate withdrawal of the Israeli state from the occupied Palestinian territory" and "Zionist nature of the Israeli state" means Israel needs to go...

Dude - go to a march and see for yourself. You don’t have to chant, just talk to some actual Palestinian and ask them what they think.

Again - it doesn’t matter what some rando/ you thinks. Words have meaning, and just because you/they are too ignorant to know history, doesn’t change what it means.
