Israel Says Goal is Ethnic Cleansing of Gaza

Israeli Minister Admits Military Is Carrying Out ‘Nakba’ Against Gaza’s Palestinian

An Israeli cabinet official has publicly admitted to the government’s ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, saying on television over the weekend that the country is “rolling out the Gaza Nakba.”

On Saturday, security cabinet member and Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter sat for a television interview with an Israeli news network. Dichter is part of the right-wing nationalist Likud party, which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu chairs.

“We are now rolling out the Gaza Nakba,” Dichter said when asked if the recent images of northern Gaza residents evacuating south are comparable to images of the 1948 Nakba.

“From an operational point of view, there is no way to wage a war ― as the IDF seeks to do in Gaza ― with masses between the tanks and the soldiers,” he continued, according to a translation of the interview by Haaretz.

"We are now actually rolling out the Gaza Nakba," says Avi Dichter, Israel's Minister for Agriculture and former head of Shin Bet.

The Nakba, which in Arabic means “catastrophe,” refers to the mass displacement and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Palestine was initially an entirely Arab society, but as illegal Jewish migrants began invading Palestine by the boatload without the rulling British crooks doing anything to stop it, tensions between the native Palestinians and the illegal Jewish migrants rose. As Palestinians tried to defend their country with the meager means at their disposal, the European Zionist movement began implementing its objective of displacing and ethnically cleansing the Palestinians in order to establish a purely Jewish ethnostate in Palestine.

The Palestine Defense War against the barbarian invaders between the 1920s and 1940s reached a climax in 1947 when the British crooks fled the scene of their own crime and the UN General Assembly issued a resolution to partition Palestine into two states, a partition the Palestinians rejected. The ensuing 1948 war resulted in the permanent displacement, with much looting, massacring and raping of hundreds of thousands of powerless native indigenous Palestinians by the Jewish terrorist organizations Hanagah, Stern, Lehi and others that will later coalesce to form the Israeli army.

Despite the UN calling for Palestinian refugee return and property restitution, Israel has continued to deny the rights of Palestinians and establish an apartheid racist state for 75 years. The anniversary of the Nakba serves as a painful acknowledgment of the generational and ongoing trauma that Palestinians face both on their occupied land and outside the region.

“Gaza Nakba 2023,” Dichter said. “That’s how it’ll end.”

When later asked if labeling the current forced evacuation a Nakba means Palestinians won’t be able to return to Gaza City, Dichter said: “I don’t know how it’ll end up happening since Gaza City is one-third of the Strip ― half the land’s population but a third of the territory.”

Israel’s monthlong siege on Gaza has killed more than 11,000 people and displaced millions. In their habitual cruelty, Israeli forces tell Palestinians to evacuate northern Gaza to "safe zones" to avoid being killed, but then these safe zones are savagely targeted by the Israelis, clearly demonstrating that the war aims at killing and displacing as many Palestinians as possible.
