Chants of 'intifada' ring out from pro-Palestinian protests. But what's it mean?
Briefly

Intifada is a term loaded with meaning, evoking strong emotions. Some see it as resisting occupation peacefully, others interpret it as calls for violence against Israel and Jews.
The history of the term, especially the Second Intifada's violence, makes it deeply charged for many, linking it to death, terrorism, and destruction.
