Why do right wingers say this chant is antisemitic?
Because it is a known antisemitic chant to murder all jews from the river Jordan to the sea.
It's not "from the river to the sea, murder all Jews", though, now is it?
Seems a bit of a leap, what you're saying there?
OK, well, "all lives matter" doesn't mean "black lives don't matter" BUT we all know what they actually mean. It's called a dogwhistle. "from the river to the season" is also a dogwhistle, because the term comes from Palestinian organizations and people that want to wipe Israel off the map. You COULD just say "one-state" but that doesn't have the fun wink-wink that a dogwhistle has.
