On January 21, 2023, the anti-Israel organizations Samidoun and Within Our Lifetime held a "day of rage" in NYC's Grand Central Station calling for the release of PFLP leader Ahmad Sa'adat, who is serving a 30-year sentence in Israel for orchestrating the 2001 assassination of Israeli cabinet member Rehavam Ze'evi, and of Ahmad Manasra, a Palestinian youth serving a prison sentence in Israel for attempted murder of an Israeli teen. The protestors chanted "Free them all, Zionism must fall!", "With our spirit and our blood, we will redeem you, oh Palestine!", "We don't want no two states, we want all of it!", "Five, six, seven, eight, crush the settler Zionist State!", and "Globalize the Intifada!" Samidoun was founded by PFLP members and is considered a terrorist organization by Israel. Footage of the event was posted on social media by Within Our Lifetime and by journalist Christopher Leon Johnson.
