The Israeli military has built a “beachside resort” on the coast of the northern Gaza Strip where IDF soldiers occupying the Palestinian territory can relax and take a break from waging a genocidal war.
According to the Israeli news site Ynet, the “retreat” was built alongside a water desalination plant that provides 60,000 liters of drinking water per day. At the resort, IDF soldiers can enjoy a cafe, hotel-style meals, massages, and hot showers and have access to mental health support and medical services.
“You know this is Gaza, right? Yet we’ve created a sense of home here, with iced coffee, espresso, protein shakes, toast, shakshuka, fresh fruit, and even ice cream on warmer days,” Chief Warrant Officer David Turjeman, the head of food services for IDF’s southern command, told Ynet. One soldier said each platoon gets a day at the resort every 10 days.
The Ynet report said the IDF has built similar “refreshment centers” elsewhere in Gaza, but they don’t match the “scope and quality” of this one. The construction of such facilities is the latest sign that Israel is planning for a long-term military occupation of Gaza and is not interested in a hostage deal with Hamas that would lead to a permanent ceasefire.
“The facility’s deployment reflects our readiness for prolonged operations, even if a ceasefire is reached in the context of a hostage exchange,” said Col. Michael Azulai, a logistics officer for the Southern Command.
The Israeli military has been demolishing buildings and establishing military outposts across Gaza, mainly in the Netzarim Corridor, which separates northern Gaza from the rest of the Strip, but also in the south along the Philadelphi Corridor and in a “buffer zone” along the entire Israel-Gaza border.
In the North Gaza Governorate, Israeli troops have been conducting an ethnic cleansing campaign and demolishing buildings so Palestinian civilians have nowhere to return. The destruction and establishment of military bases will likely lead to Jewish settlements in Gaza, an idea supported by many Israeli ministers and Knesset members.
Disgraceful
Plenty of people are taking notes on how this is done…
When the empire expires who do you think will be the objects of genocide? It won’t be fought back, it is being normalized. There is no functioning international law with authority to stop it and enforce consequences.
Kashmir for one, but plenty of right wing whites write on doing this is Britain, Sweden, etc.
The point flew over your head. What comes around goes around.
Precisely what Hezbollah and Iran have to do to save themselves.
Thousands upon thousands of rockets launched in a coordinated attack.
Time is running out.
That’s precisely why Israel keeps a minority of Palestinians or “Arab citizens” as hostages and human shields against a massive attack.
LOL! Isn't that Braveheart? I always thought Mel Gibson was telling the Palestinian story in code.
Sorry, I guess you meant Israel.
Well, I was replying in a waiting room. I understand your point now, but I don’t think the actual perps will “find out.”
Regardless, GE is on the horizon. Ethnicity will become a thing of the past.
The ICC is one huge joke.
The "judges" just blather along, with no teeth in their determinations.
Perhaps that is why the U.S. wrote the charter for the UN, including the ICC.
"Never again" means never again against the "chosen" but game on for others.
The US neither wrote nor voted for the UNGA’s “convention on the establishment of an international criminal court,” nor is the ICC a UN body.
What?! It's total bait for the Resistance fighters. It'll last less than the US "humanitarian" pier and will cost the lives of many colonial troops.
The entirety of Israel is a beach resort for IDF soldiers.
Well, slaughtering women and children is such hard work! Ya gotta take a break once in a while! /d (for disgust).
Not only killing,,,! The young one's organs are being stolen for ogan trafficing business….!
Have not read solid proof of that. However, the depravity with which the IDF is acting (contests to see which division can outdo others in numbers of Palestinians killed, even children), leads me to lean in the direction of it being true.
They’ve done it before.
@disqus_gxEQqZQOt2:disqus There is documented proof that this was done to some Yemeni Jews in the early 50's and other reported cases by palestinians. Why wouldn't they do it now in the "fog of war: when Palestinians groups have been screaming to the top of their lungs saying that Palestinians have been disappeared from Gaza since Oct. 7th. And even if they didn't do it, does it make them any less depraved based on what already has been done to the 2.3 million people of Gaza? No unfortunately their barbarity is a human condition. The only solution is the destruction of the state of Israel. That will save all the parties.
dumdum
The most unbelievable becomes believable, yes, they are the kind of people able to do it.
No they are not
Read my post above. Redeem yourself while you can so you are not counted amongst them.
They really do have a genius for refining depravity.
Now there will be a more "efficient" target for Israel's "enemies"! A resort full of cowardly baby killers!
That's true. But here in the US you will here the rancid Zionist talking point "what if rockets were raining down on your resorts in the US?"
In this short time they've built a resort? While Gazans are dying of famine. No one is going to stop them from taking over all of Palestine, are they?
“Harris and Biden are working night day”, said AOC. Not a fucking word.
You get it now?
It could be propaganda, they tell lies the moment they move their mouth.
Israel continues to behave like the Nazis, in days of old…!
horrid comparison
Other than numbers, a very apt comparison.
Actually, they are worse than the Nazis, every time we think it can't get worse, it gets even worse.
Ok, then dont think about it
Actually, it's worse than one thinks. There are academics who have begun to make the comparisons in eerily uncanny ways. The damage Israel has caused for itself and its people is nothing now compared to how it will be seen in the coming decades after Israel long gone. Yes, the state of Israel has to go.
Israel = the Third Reich
(Secular) Zionism = Nazism
(Secular) Zionists = Nazis
Jews = Germans
Germans were plagued by a bad ideology which told them they were better than anyone else. Most Germans committed no crimes but they were complacent or silent. The Nazis built a "Third Reich" on these bad ideas. They failed. The Reich was destroyed but Nazis and Germans lived on.
Israel will be destroyed but Zionism and and Jews will live on.
It's the shame they have to live with and endure when all this data is gathered, studied, categorized, archived, studied and analyzed. Man's inhumanity to man doesn't have to be the same to a tee. It just needs to share a similar pattern of 'I am superior to you so I can wipe you out since you don't believe how great I am.'
It's a pretty simple and accurate comparison.
And thank you but we'll keep thinking about it. Never again means for everyone, not just the people we like.
@disqus_f6PBOsi4JJ:disqus@renatelittlejohn:disqus@warsrus:disqus@donnavolatile:disqus@knappster:disqus
Why is it horrid? They do exactly the same stuff the Nazis did. Actually they are worse since they flaunt it in front of the world, calling killing men, women and children "good". At least the Nazis tried to hide it until the very end.
If the shoe fits, wear it!
… And why Israelis occupied and annexed the beachfront of the north most Gaza Strip…? There would most likely not be any Hamas tunnels exist there…!
Kind of like Visa, Hamas is everywhere Israelis want to be.
Lol!!
Jared, the ghoul, smiles………oh yeah.
I see a new target for the Houthis.
There is no god. Can't be.
I realize that this site is dedicated to anti war thoughts, however, I really, really would like to see Iran and Hezbollah launch a simultaneous barrage of thousands upon thousands of rockets at Israel, just light it up.
At the same time, light up the "resort" as well as supply lines feeding the IDF soldiers in Southern Lebanon.
Enough is enough.
Sorry.
And when Israel retaliates and lights up Iran's cities you will be one of first to claim "genocide". And as for attacking the "resort", what it they missed and hit the desalination plant, do you expect Israel to repair that plant?
What you don't understand is that Israel has a large untapped ability to hit back. What you are hoping for is another Oct 7, where Hamas had a day of killing. But that day was followed by 448 days of counter attack which over 17,000 Hamas fighters and 10,000s of Palestinians civilians died. Do you want to repeat on a larger scale? Is that one day of revenge worth the price?
Israel never retaliates, clown. They simply incite and incite to create a response, then claim they were attacked and then go on to do what they had planned to do all along.
they do respond
why is the "genocide" happening?
Because it was part of their plan. He just explained that to you.
What an ignorant question, get to a library to inform yourself.
And when Israel retaliates and lights up Iran's cities you will be one of first to claim "genocide"
You've done this many times now. Trying to downplay the actual ongoing genocide in Gaza as something people reflexively claim every time Israel goes on a rampage. Once more, you are full of shit. But Iran isn't one of Israel's outdoor prisons and Israel will be plenty bloodied in any war with Iran. At which point you'll be screaming HOLOCAUST!
And as for attacking the "resort", what it they missed and hit the desalination plant, do you expect Israel to repair that plant?
Of course they will. They plan on occupying Gaza. And you need water to wash down the cotton candy and popcorn.
But that day was followed by 448 days of counter attack which over 17,000 Hamas fighters and 10,000s of Palestinians civilians died.
Cute. It was just 80,000 tons of bombs falling on their heads and the withholding of enough food and medicine that people need to survive that led to this natural disaster. /s
Get real, Israelis get paid for killing unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, they sold their souls, to get land that never belonged to them. They have become a vile nation of psychopathic people.
The IDF soldiers are shot at daily by terrorists who surround themselves civilians. And when they fire back at the terrorists they are accused of genocide because the return fire hits civilians. Of course they deserve a break from this dangerous job of trying to kill terrorists while limiting civilian losses.
And that desalination plant receives its electricity from power lines hooked to Israel power grid. Propaganda writers attach the word genocide to Israel war on Gaza. Can any of those writers care to explain why that plant is still operating if Israel was out to commit genocide?
You have convinced me. You are getting paid. You're not even worth an F- bomb. You're a joke.
You really can’t make this shit up. “The IDF soldiers are shot at daily by terrorists who surround themselves civilians.” The IDF soldier is like a murderer who has just broken into your home and expects immunity despite their actions. They absolutely deserve to be destroyed.
“And when they fire back at the terrorists they are accused of genocide because the return fire hits civilians.” Except that journalists like Shireen Abu Akleh and countless others are nowhere near Hamas soldiers when they get assassinated. Should we talk about the toddlers with two sniper bullet holes in their chest ,Tim? I understand that toddlers are threatening to the world’s most cowardly military but at some point you’ve gotta expect payback.
I see, because one electricity plant is left open it must not be a genocide?
Your depravity in defending the monstrosity that is Israel reveals far too much about the psychiatric disease that is Zionism.
Well said.
The IDF soldiers are shot at daily by terrorists who surround themselves civilians. And when they fire back at the terrorists they are accused of genocide because the return fire hits civilians.
Sure, it's just firefights that have killed all those thousands upon thousands of innocents. It had nothing to do with dropping 80,000 tons of bombs on a tiny piece of land packed with 2.3 human beings. And never mind the 150 trucks on average getting into the strip when at least 500 per day were needed just for people to have a half assed chance of surviving. I've changed my mind. Your comment is worthy of an F-bomb. You are a fucking disgrace, and I have renewed enthusiasm for making sure your disgusting comments get every F-bomb they deserve.
Vomit.
Calling the Houthis …
And by the way, continuing support for mass murder of innocents by our ratfuck administration has chances of outstripping the amateur efforts by the Nazis.
Did Jared Kushner supply some of his Saudi money for the venture? After all it was him who brought up the vacation resort idea to be built in Gaza.
Did the poolside resort exclusively for the soldiers , adjacent to the green forest built by Nazi next to Dachu survive the bombings ?
