An Israeli government minister has vowed that “Gaza will be entirely destroyed” as a result of an Israeli military victory, and that its Palestinian population will “leave in great numbers to third countries”, raising fears of ethnic cleansing in the occupied territory.

The declaration on Tuesday by the finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, came a day after Israel’s security cabinet approved a plan for Operation Gideon’s Chariots, which an Israeli official said would entail “the conquest of the Gaza Strip and the holding of the territories”.

Genocide. This is blatant, obvious, inexcusable genocide. Israel is now a rogue state.

Decades at best. As long as I've been alive at least.

That’s fucking genocide

"raising fears of ethnic cleansing" really? I guess I'm happy they are at least reporting it but then what has the past two years been if not an ethnic cleansing? Even when a news agency reports on it you get this like passive bullshit

But don't call it genocide, someone might be upset.

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

Fucking war criminals.

Hey Israel, how’s that Lebensraum coming along?

US officials have not reacted directly to Israel’s threat of a new offensive, but Donald Trump said on Monday that his administration would help get food to “starving” Palestinians. He blamed Hamas for making it “impossible” by diverting humanitarian assistance for its fighters.

“We’re going to help the people of Gaza get some food. People are starving, and we’re going to help them get some food,” Trump told reporters during an event at the White House.

Get what you voted for. Or, in some cases, didn’t.

Some music to listen to while reading the article.
