Different people using the slogan have different intentions. Some want a two-state solution, some want a single secular state without all of the Israeli ethnostate garbage. I am sure there are also a handful of Islamists (99.99999% of them nowhere near American university campuses) who also want to kill all Jews, but their relatively small proportion speaks to why interpreting the slogans as inherently genocidal is, again, mistaken or dishonest.

> Different people using the slogan have different intentions Ok, so just to be clear, we want to investigate what Palestinians mean by the phrase, since they ultimately will determine what "free" means when Palestine is free. Does that make sense? Let us not muddy the waters with what American college students believe the phrase means. 99.9999% of American college students will be nowhere near Palestine when it is freed. Only Palestinian voices matter, here, agreed? So, it's your belief that Palestinians have a diverse opinion on the topic? Some want a 2-state solution, some want a 1-state secular democracy, and only a very tiny miniscule minority want an ethno-state with no Jews or other infidels? Is there any evidence that would change your mind on that, no matter how unlikely? Like, if I could wave a magic wand and present to you with incontrovertible evidence that actually the overwhelming majority of Palestinians want Jews entirely gone "from the river to the sea", what would that evidence look like? Would it look like poll results?
