Thin on the left so far
None of the 7 outlets with a published leaning rating that ran this story are rated left.
This story is still being watched, so it is a count and not yet a finding. Coverage keeps arriving for hours after an event, and a side that has published nothing this morning may publish by tonight. If it is still true when we stop checking, we will say so plainly.
Millions of anti-Israel activists participated in coordinated marches across cities such as Washington D.C., London, Paris, Madrid, and Kuala Lumpur. Demonstrators chanted slogans including "Free, free Palestine" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free."
For the first time, three leaders within the anti-Israel movement have openly acknowledged a goal of establishing a single state named "Palestine." This proposed state would encompass the current territories of Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. The leaders stated this vision includes a Palestinian "right of return" and equal political rights for Palestinians living alongside Jews.
In this proposed political framework, Israel would legally cease to exist as a distinct Jewish nation-state. Hatem Abudayyeh, identified as the Palestinian-American founder of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, stated the new nation would be "one democratic secular state of Palestine." Miko Peled, a Jewish Israeli-born community leader and founder of the Palestine House in Washington D.C., said the proper name would be Palestine. Maryland congressional candidate Sam Husseini, described as Palestinian-American Christian, suggested "1948" as a name for the unified state, marking the year Israel declared independence.
Disagreement on the nature of the movement's aims
The New York Ledger reported that three anti-Israel leaders acknowledged the goal of one state called "Palestine" encompassing Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. Arutz Sheva focused on the idea that anti-Israel activists, particularly those with Jewish backgrounds who are critical of Israel, are being rejected by their political allies. This report detailed instances of Jewish figures within leftist movements facing backlash and accusations of Zionism from within anti-Israel demonstrations and political parties.

Centre

- The centre-rated report from The New York Ledger led with the explicit statements from anti-Israel leaders about their goal of a single state encompassing Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. It highlighted that these leaders acknowledged this would mean Israel legally ceasing to exist as a separate Jewish nation-state. The report quoted Hatem Abudayyeh stating the new nation would be "one democratic secular state of Palestine," and Miko Peled saying the proper name would be Palestine. It also noted the rejection of the two-state solution by protesters, citing chants and signs from demonstrations in New York City and London.
Right
6 rated outlets
- The right-rated reports, primarily digests of a Fox News article, focused on the explicit statements from anti-Israel leaders advocating for a single state called "Palestine" that would erase Israel. These reports highlighted the demographic implications, noting that Jews would be demographically overwhelmed in such a state. The digests quoted Hatem Abudayyeh's statement about "one democratic secular state of Palestine" and Miko Peled's assertion that the proper name would be Palestine. The Arutz Sheva report, however, focused on a different aspect, detailing how Jewish figures within leftist movements were allegedly facing rejection and accusations of Zionism from within anti-Israel demonstrations and political parties, suggesting that "the Left hates them too."
