It does suggest driving Jewish people out of Israel though, doesn't it? It's suggesting that Israel shouldn't be there at all. Which I think is at least potentially problematic. Unless your view is that Palestinians should be able to call for Israelis to be removed (when I don't think any of us would think it's ok for Israelis to call for Palestinians to be driven out)

No it doesn’t.

No, it isn’t
It only works this way if you conflate the idea of a free Palestine with the destruction of the state of Israel. Which, I can see why some would be motivated to do that.

‘From the river to the sea’ is not Hamas’ slogan. It’s an old PLO slogan and is around 60 years old. It’s not a call for the obliteration of Israel and the line that this is some kind of hugely antisemitic slogan is horseshit.
