Doesn’t look like there will be much land left for the Palestinians.

And in other news, from the Guardian:

“Israel’s defence minister has said he is committed to the ethnic cleansing of Gaza through large-scale migration of Palestinians as part of Israel’s long-term plans for the territory.
Israel Katz said the government would implement a plan for large numbers of Palestinians to leave Gaza “at the right time and in the right manner”, in a statement on Wednesday marking the targeted killing of Mohammed Odeh, Hamas’s most recent military commander.
Pushing for mass departures violates Donald Trump’s ceasefire plan for Gaza, which Israel signed last year. The second point of the plan states: “Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough.”
Israel’s government has promoted the prospect of Gaza without Palestinians since Trump suggested early last year that hundreds of thousands of people should leave to “clean out” the strip for reconstruction.
Last year Israel set up a bureau for “voluntary emigration” and eased travel restrictions for Palestinians who wanted to make a one-way journey out of the strip.
The forced transfer of civilian populations is a war crime and a crime against humanity. Israeli officials, including Katz, use the term “voluntary migration” to describe their ”

Don't you agree that extremism sometimes must be met with violence? Surely we can agree that Hamas needs to go? For the sake of both Palestinians and Israelis?

Of course Hamas need to go . Extremist terrorists have no place in a civilized society.

But do you not think Israels actions are just creating another generation of terrorists. You cannot beat an idealogy with violence. And I know from your posts you are in favour of a peaceful coexistence moving forward which I agree with.

All the deaths over the past few years and Hamas Hezbollah,IRGC still exist.

We need to look for alternatives.

Hamas needs to go.

Bombing children will create another generation of extremists.

People have been talking about ethnic cleansing but it’s not happening. Not just because Israel actually won’t but also because no-one will take them.

Its actually the crux of it isnt it? No country will take them, theres nowhere to cleanse them to, they can't return to Israel, and they absolutely cannot all be killed of course ( despite what some may believe Israel capable of )... so there absolutely has to be 2 States. I just wish both sides would get on with it and stop wasting bloody time and life.

Classy.

Shame people feel the need to post goady sarky comments on a thread discussing Israeli government intentions to ethnically cleanse Palestinians. If we were ever in doubt of people's true feelings about them.

I'm not interested in your opinion of me so to keep giving it is boring at this point.

I've tried to debate politely so many times across dozens of threads but I'm honestly bored of it now because all these threads go the same way - slanging matches.

You start the insults and then take offence when I'm bored of the same old routine.

They've already ethnically cleansed 60% of Gaza and large swathes of the West Bank. It is happening.

I think Hamas only understands violence.

Its how to separate them from the innocents that is the problem.

I’m not israeli or jewish I’m just someone who disagrees with you, I understand that you fall back on conspiracy because you have no other way to explain the fact that people think you are wrong…it must be the jeeeewwwwwssss seems to be a common fallback.

Israel don’t separate. They are creating generational trauma and extremism.

They are still in gaza to have ethnically cleansed 60% of gaza it would mean 60% of people who were in gaza are now not in gaza. Where did you get that from?

Yes I think that is the crux of the matter.

No country will take them so they need their own state.

The contradiction is they can't have their own state while Hamas live amongst them because how can Israel be expected to live in close proximity to Hamas?

I think that Belle was talking about the poster who was trying to spread made up stories about babies being strangled. That's propaganda.

OK then they have cleansed 60% of Gaza of Palestinian people and large swathes of the West Bank of people who are not Jewish. Is that phrased better for you?

Yep.
Hamas kill Palestinians. We know that . They use their power and violence to exert control.

I actually think the time to take away their oxygen was years ago . Give Palestinians a good standard of living. Take away the unnecessary Israeli checkpoints and ways to make daily life hard . Happy healthy comfortable people don't support extremists.

But Netanyahu knew this and the fear of people supporting the Palestinian Authority and the threat of a Palestinian state led him to prop up Hamas .

Yes but that’s not the issue at hand here? This war has been going on before October 7th and anyone who denies that is burying their heads in the sand.

What we’re discussing here is the issue of Hamas and extremism in this Palestine.

You mean the bibas kids because Israel shared their forensic reports with external agencies to verify method of execution and it doesn’t say they were specifically strangled but were killed with bare hands. 10 months and a 4yr old. Someone took it on themselves to literally suffocate two children manually. Thats not has ara that happened. I completely agree we should focus on ghe truth and not propaganda.

Which sounds like a bunch of semantics to me.

Oh give over, your first post was goady looking for a reaction and you knew it. Just be honest about your intentions and stop accusing others of things you do yourself

Once Gaza is successfully cleared out, they'll move onto clearing Lebanon.

I wonder what the catalyst will be......I'm sure there will be one. There has to be one, right?

The Bibas babies autopsies showed they'd been strangled to death.
