A group of 27 Israeli ministers and members of the Israeli Knesset have sent a letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urging him to expel Palestinian civilians from northern Gaza and impose a complete siege to “cleanse” the area.
The Israeli ministers and lawmakers called for the Israeli Security Cabinet to adopt a plan known as the “General’s Plan,” which outlines a way for Israel to conquer the territory north of the Netzarim Corridor, a strip of land that’s under control of the Israel military and separates northern Gaza from the rest of the Strip.
According to The Jerusalem Post, the “General’s Plan” involves four stages:
- Transferring the civilian population in northern Gaza to the south of the Netzarim corridor
- Blocking all aid and initiating a full siege of northern Gaza and pronouncing it a “closed military zone”
- Preventing deliveries to the area until it is “cleansed” and the remaining Hamas fighters are defeated by applying “intense” military pressure
- Conducting a similar procedure in other areas of the Gaza Strip
If carried out successfully, the plan would result in the ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza and other areas where it’s implemented, paving the way for Jewish settlements. Many Israeli ministers and MKs openly support re-establishing settlements in the Gaza Strip.
Many Palestinian civilians in northern Gaza would likely ignore any evacuation order since there’s nowhere for them to go, and Israel has repeatedly bombed so-called “safe zones” throughout the genocidal war. That means any remaining Palestinian civilians in the north would be killed or starved to death by the Israeli military.
The Post said the letter to Netanyahu was signed by Women’s Advancement Minister and Social Equality Minister May Golan, Environmental Protection Minister Idit Silman, and Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism Minister Amichai Chikli. It was also signed by MKs from Netanyahu’s Likud party, the Religious Zionism party, and the Jewish Power party.
Nope. Not ethnic cleansing.
I’d love to hear Kirby dodge a question about this.
Amalek would seem to suggest killing children. This is as bad as it gets. Their only defence is to point at the US and note how we’ve ruined more lives just by sanctioning Venezuela which has some but not much to do with Israel.
Torture is unChristian, but this isn’t Christianity.
Anyway, I rather hope the Palestinians are expelled. They’re going to suffer less that way. I don’t want to see Palestinians suffer just so I can say, “Israel is this bad.” They can always win their lands back later. Where there’s a will there’s a way.
There’s no where for them to go.
They’ll be expelled to somewhere.
They’ll be slaughtered Luchorpan. And that shouldn’t sit right with you.
It obviously doesn’t “sit right” with me… But the world won’t let them kill the weak and the strong like in the book. There’s a limit. This is ethnic cleansing, torture, ruination of futures, ruination of health, a bit of genocide and whatever you want to add.
When the US sanctions Venezuela, no one cares if children are then raped attempting to flee to the US just to survive. Or just as bad, no one cares if children resort to selling themselves just to survive. Few call it a crime.
I’m obviously “against” it all. I’m really not a sociopath…
You keep advocating that they leave. So where is this safe haven? And how do they escape when they are trapped inside?
Some foreign state agrees to take them in. Israel is making them desperate to leave so that they’ll do so willingly.
Presently, they’re trapped, but money changes things. This situation makes Israel look bad.
they will never leave their homeland and why should they? israel will never defeat the resistance. a military that kills 710 children is not a powerful military it is a desperate one.
710 BABIES UNDER ONE, I meant to say. the number of killed children is in the thousands.
For the record, I publicly condemn Israel’s behavior, which is risky. People record conversations. I’m at risk of saying something slightly off. One mistake, and I could be ruined.
I’m “against” it… I think it’d be neat to work as a volunteer attempting to get aid in there. But there’s no demand for such work. They have plenty of people.
I keep repeating that I’m really not a sociopath.
The concentration camp boundaries will keep expanding.
No. If they are expelled and the world is "okay" with ethnic cleansing, precedent makes it "okay" for anyone against anyone, anywhere. We MUST NOT allow that.
Further to the ASI, what then when the IDF cleanses the West Bank… Lebanon… Syria… Jordan…?
Bear in mind the Old Testament was a) not terribly precise on the boundaries of the Promised Land, and b) in some cases, the Bible was complete s**t with history & geography.
Best example – the Exodus (which scholars, archaeologists & academics generally agree never happened, especially not at the scale described). The story has the Israelites fleeing Egypt to Sinai. Sinai, at the time, bring under the control of…Egypt. Like fleeing FBI pursuit in Idaho by escaping to Montana.
Israel probably intends to cleanse Lebanon and Syria next, probably not Jordan yet. Maybe part of Egypt.
But it’s worse to allow them to kill 2 million. It’s like no one wants them to flee lest they lose their claim. It’s like some want them to be martyrs.
I think it better to remove the Palestinians. I ideally want the US out. That’s not currently possible.
Regarding precedent, we have something worse: Political science. This will be repeated now that we’ve been taught how. It’s not just right or wrong. The world has learned how.
I don't. It's like watching a contestant on America Got Talent, who claims to be the best at making me vomit.
I’m not a fan of the show.
My wife and I stopped watching television 18 years ago. Never looked back.
It’s 99% crap. Most viewed with the intention of falling asleep.
I needed a steady dose of caffeine to stay awake.
How about "America's got psychopaths".
That's the window. The television is the other thing with the remote and things.
Too many contestants!
Now it's "America HAD Talent".
And a couple fervent Zionist ASI apologists who Comment on here…
This will be studied and learned from. Other national identities and group/state identities will use this model. This is ethnic cleansing as a science.
We usually see migration as inevitable, permanent. Israel is a shining example to those who want to take other areas.
Regardless, genetic engineering will see an end to at least national identities. But there will always be some cult.
I’m not praising this. I’m noting it will be repeated.
I don't see how genetic engineering could end "national identities".
For one, "national identity" is only generally-correlated to genetic features like skin color, facial appearance. Someone is not "genetically Somalian" or "genetically Swedish" – a person just loosely associates with genetic population groups of a region that Humans drew lines around and put a country name in the middle.
Additionally, the cladistic nature of evolution by natural selection means that no species ever "loses" its parent group. Regardless of what Homo Sapiens Sapiens evolves into in 1000, 5000, 100000 years, we will REMAIN Great Apes, mammals, chordates, all that our lineage is and was.
Even if one could argue that "genetic Palestinian" was A Thing, and altered one's DNA to exclude… something?…that person remains the child of their parents, and grandparents, all the way back. Unless you make them Not Human somehow, cladistic biology still applies.
You could move some humans to Mars. In X years they may be "ethnic Martians" but they will NEVER not be descendants of H. Sapiens Sapiens, and Great Apes, and mammals, originating of Earth.
Genetics tend to flow from one area to another, but you do have genetic breaks, usually at geographical barriers.
But I think we’re often incorrect in how we interpret the heritage.
Genetics are a tradition. Genetic engineering changes things.
It is the Golan Heights #2. And our impotent government will do nothing.
There is an old expression: Children live what they learn, and that pretty much nails it!
NO child should be lost!
I suspect that the president will sleep through it all. The phrase " I was only following orders" comes to mind.
The Israeli leadership (term used very loosely) is a rotting clot of war criminals.
As for us? Guilt by association is a bear, or are Biden's coterie going to plead the Stockholm Syndrome?
The only cure to stop these crimes is to eliminate the Israeli state. That can be done. There are many more countries and billions more people who want to do that than who are complicit in these crimes. It will come, like the end of the Crusader States.
And what nations are going to put their cities on the line to eliminate Israel?
is it a “genocide”? idk but it sure as hell looks like a land grab.
It's both.
oh
