The full chant is "from the river to the sea [Palestine will be free]" which to me means that the state of Israel is unwelcome. Hell I've joined in on that chant, even though I'm not theoretically 100 against a permanent Israeli settlement, so long as it takes on a very very different form.

Even though the removal of the state of Isreal would mean the ethnic cleansing / genocide of millions of Jews?

Israel isn't going anywhere. Many Arabic countries have already successfully completed the total eradication of all Jews within their populations, so they need somewhere to call home.

Oh by the way, the original Arabic translation of "To the river to the sea" ends with "Palestine will be Arab." They just changed it in English.
