If you still doubt that
Israel’s campaign in Gaza is to ethnically cleanse the enclave, expel and kill
its indigenous Palestinian population, and annex it to build Jewish colonies in
it, you are either an idiot or a hypocrite.
It has become clear that Israel’s war in Gaza is not only to root out Hamas and rescue the Israeli prisoners it holds. By destroying residences, it denies the Palestinians a place to live in their own land. By destroying hospitals, it denies Palestinians health care. By preventing – and killing hundreds of – journalists from covering the war, it denies the Palestinians the right to tell their version of the war. By destroying schools, it denies the Palestinians education. By severely limiting food entry into the Strip, it starves the Palestinians. Then by attacking the UN, UNRWA (UN’s Palestinian refugee assistance), UNICEF (UN’s children’s fund), and all its affiliated entities and organizations (the World Food Program, the World Central Kitchen, and many many others trying to help a desperate population), it is becoming clear that Israel has something else in mind besides the unachievable goal of destroying Hamas and recovering the Israeli prisoners.
Israel’s war in Gaza is to implement a plan drawn long ago, namely to steal the territory and make it an extension of the Jewish colony in Palestine. It is as though Israel was waiting for the Hamas attack to put that plan into execution. Indeed, the Zionist war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu has been documented as having encouraged Hamas to take over the Gaza Strip as a way to weaken the Palestinian Authority and divide the Palestinian camp, in the hope that one day he will push the Palestinians into a desperate action that he then can use as a pretext (“self-defense”) to invade and conquer and annex.
I predict that once the Gaza
war is over, the Zionists will create a similar scenario in the West Bank.
Right now, anti-Israel demonstrations in neighboring Jordan have escalated to
the point where the Jordanian regime finds itself having to choose between
abrogating its peace treaty with Israel or descend into chaos and war. Israel hopes
that Jordan will succumb to war because Jordan has already taken millions of
Palestinian refugees from the 1948 and 1967 ethnic cleansing of Palestine, and
it wouldn’t take much to forcibly expel the West Bank Palestinians into Jordan.
Similarly, Israel is contemplating its burning borders with Lebanon and Syria with
the same lens: It wants to get rid of its own "Israeli Palestinians" (the ones known as
the “1948 Palestinians”, i.e. those Palestinians in the Galilee who did not
flee the creation of Israel and who constitute 25% of the Israeli population). Through
a war with Lebanon and Syria, Israel hopes to expel those 1948 Palestinians
into southern Lebanon and the Syrian Golan, and thus rid itself of the last
indigenous Palestinians who are the last obstacle to a purely white Jewish
racist supremacist state from the “River to the Sea”, not unlike the purely white Aryan racist supremacist state from the Atlantic to the Urals that the Nazi brethern of the Zionists dreamed of.
Given a spineless Butcher Biden administration that is fearful of the Zionist criminals, and that tries to feed crumbs to the famished Palestinians while at the same time supplying the barbarian Jews with its deadliest weapons, the US is in fact an accomplice of the Zionists in these upcoming installments of the complete ethnic cleansing of Palestine that began in the 1930s, peaked in 1948 and in 1967, and is about to peak again in our time.

World Central Kitchen founder José Andrés says Israel targeted staff in Gaza 'car by car'
BBC
Thu, April 4, 2024
World Central Kitchen (WCK) founder José Andrés has accused Israeli forces in Gaza of targeting his aid workers "systematically, car by car".
Monday's strike which killed seven members of his staff was not a mistake, he said, repeating that Israeli forces had been told of their movements.
WCK workers from Palestine, Australia, Canada, Poland, the UK and the US were killed in the Israeli attack.
Israel says the strike was a "grave mistake" and has apologized. [It couldn't lie this time by saying that it was a roadside bomb or a Hamas rocket or some other lie it usually tries to hide its barbarity behind]. It has promised an independent investigation, [which like so many other deliberate attacks against humanitarians, UN workers or soldiers, journalists and others] will end up in the Bermuda Triangle.
According to the charity, the aid convoy was hit while leaving the Deir al-Balah warehouse, "where the team had unloaded more than 100 tons of humanitarian food aid brought to Gaza on the maritime route".
The convoy was made up of three vehicles, including two that were armored, which clearly displayed the charity's logo. All three were hit during the strike.
Speaking to Reuters news agency on Wednesday, the Spanish-American celebrity chef said this was not a "bad luck situation where, 'oops,' we dropped the bomb in the wrong place".
In a separate interview with Israel's Channel 12 news, Mr. Andrés said "it was really a direct attack on clearly marked vehicles whose movements were known by everybody at the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]".
The bodies of six of the dead WCK workers have since been taken from Gaza into Egypt to be repatriated.
Their Palestinian colleague was buried in his hometown in Rafah, southern Gaza, on Tuesday.
Humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip is in doubt after WCK - a key provider of aid to the territory - suspended operations.
The UN announced it was pausing movements at night for at least 48 hours to evaluate the security situation.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described the strike as unintentional.
"It happens in war, we check it to the end, we are in contact with the governments, and we will do everything so that this thing does not happen again," Mr. Netanyahu said on Tuesday.
IDF Chief of General Staff Herzi Halevi called the incident a "grave mistake" and said "it shouldn't have happened," blaming the strike on misidentification.
US President Joe Biden has condemned the strike, accusing Israel of not doing enough to protect aid workers.
"The United States has repeatedly urged Israel to deconflict their military operations against Hamas with humanitarian operations, in order to avoid civilian casualties," Mr. Biden said.
Three of the killed aid workers were British nationals. A Polish national, an Australian, a Palestinian and a dual US-Canadian citizen were also killed.
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak spoke to Mr. Netanyahu on Tuesday. On the call, he described the situation in Gaza as "increasingly intolerable" and "demanded a thorough and transparent independent investigation" into the killing of the aid workers.
Mr. Sunak added that Israel needed to end restrictions on humanitarian aid and protect civilians, according to a Downing Street statement.
In other reactions:
- Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he had "expressed Australia's anger and concern" in a long phone call with Mr. Netanyahu, and that he expected a "full and proper explanation for how this has occurred"
- Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said he had demanded an independent investigation from Israel Katz, his Israeli counterpart
- Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said "full accountability" was needed, adding that it was "absolutely unacceptable for aid workers to be killed" by the IDF
Four days ago, WCK said that it had distributed 42 million meals in the Gaza Strip - dispatching more than 1,700 food trucks and also sending close to 435,000 meals by sea.
According to Cogat, the Israeli defense ministry body in charge of civilian policy in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, WCK is responsible for 60% of the non-governmental aid getting into the territory.
A second charity, the American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera), which was working closely with WCK, told the BBC it was also freezing its operations in Gaza.
More than 196 aid workers have been killed in Gaza since October, according to the US-funded Aid Worker Security Database, which records major incidents of violence against aid personnel. Not all have been killed in the line of duty.
Much of the Gaza Strip has been devastated during the Israeli military operations that began after Hamas gunmen attacked southern Israel on 7 October, killing about 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages.
About 130 of the hostages remain in captivity, at least 34 of whom are presumed dead.
More than 32,916 people have been killed in Gaza since then, the Hamas-run health ministry says.
