This shithead’s genocide is going to birth a new generation of vengeful extremists out of the ashes of Gaza for the rest of the world to deal with, in the future
By design. Fascists need an enemy to protect people from, in order to justify their cruelty. And they need a underclass to oppress, to demonstrate their power.
If they can make one out of the other - why, that’s just efficiency.
Thus the cycle continues. Come the end of humanity, the last two people in the middle east will still be throwing rocks at each other.
The onion had ‘news from the future’ from several years ago and showed the last Israeli fighting the last Palestinian over a stray cat that wandered into the Gaza scrap
Hey look. Its what we’ve been telling you it was the whole time. A genocidal eradication of a people to take their land.
The weakness of western ‘democracies’ is disgusting.
To a certain extent. But aren’t the countries in the near vicinity the most able?
Oh, look, an open admission of genocidal intent.
Should be useful in the court case against Israel.
These are the quotes this article is based on according to another news outlet, and it is unsure if the translation (especially the wording for the proclaimed statement in the title) is up for debate since there are multiple translations.
(“from the river to the sea,” according to an English translation on the Israeli news channel i24NEWS.
According to other translations, Netanyahu said that Israel “must have security control over the entire territory west of the Jordan River,”)
"Every area that we evacuate we receive terrible terror against us. It happened in South Lebanon, in Gaza, and also in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] which we did it.”
“And therefore I clarify that in any other arrangement, in the future, the state of Israel has to control the entire area from the river to the sea.”
"This truth I say to our American friends,” Netanyahu said Thursday. “And I also stopped the attempt to impose on us a reality that will jeopardize us. A prime minister in Israel has to be able to say no, even to the best of friends. To say no when you need to and to say yes when you can.”
Does anybody know what “proposal” the USA made that he’s referencing?
Maybe they should put the natives in reservations.
It’s ok when Zionist colonisers say “from the river to the sea” but it’s hate speech when the original inhabitants or their supporters say it
Just a reminder that before Palestinians lived there Jewish people lived there. I don’t really support either side. I just like saying uncomfortable facts out loud because I’m on the internet. Downvote away
Give it back to Rome. Roma Invicta.
Did rome take it from anyone?
3 thousand years ago? Before there was Jewish or Palestinian people there, the was no one. Hence I believe the area should be completely emptied. Just like to say uncomfortable facts out loud.
I couldn’t give a shit if they lived there 2000 years ago. It doesn’t give them the right to colonize it in 2023.
There’s never been a period of time when Jewish people weren’t living there. How can a group of people colonize the place they’re already living?
Because you see all Jews as from Palestine. That isn’t the case. Before the colonization project started Jews and Arabs had lived together there for thousands of years. Then Europeans showed up, and suddenly most of the Arabs are corraled into reservations that the Europeans and Americans keep encroaching on with settlements.
Rather than assimilate to the existing culture and produce a single post colonial state they decided to try and push the Arabs out. Nobody would care if they had produced a post colonial state that had heavy protections for Jewish refugees, but was not a Jewish state.
I hate him so much. Way before the Gaza war. He’s an alt right tyrant regardless of his religion.
Don’t call Zionists Jews.
Zionists are a disgrace using Judaism only as a shield for their war crimes.
Netanyahu is quite literally a white surpremacist that just wants to kill brown people and expand the Lebensraum.
Nazism isn’t a religion.
That’s what I’m saying, I hate him because regardless of what his religion or ethnicity is, he himself is just evil. He’s out for wealth and power and fuck whoever gets in his way.
That won’t stop them from calling any criticism “antisemitism”.
“For 30 years, I am very consistent and I am saying something very simple: this conflict is not on the lack of a state of Palestinians, but the existence of a state, the Jewish state,” Netanyahu said, according to a translation on i24NEWS. “Every area that we evacuate we receive terrible terror against us. It happened in South Lebanon, in Gaza, and also in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] which we did it.”
It turns out, when you terrorize people and steal their land for decades they are still angry at you when you('re forced to) let them borrow some of their land back while continuing to terrorize them.
I’m sure all the people pissed that Rashida Talib used those words will be equally upset about Bibi saying it. /s
But Bibi is white, so… /s
Hubris is thy name. The seeds of the next Holocaust is planted. Thanks, Netanyahu!
Of course he says this, all of his actions for the last thirty years have telegraphed this intent. War is how he stays in power, and he takes it personally.
Nice chap that one ☝️
I’m tired of idiots saying that and analyzing it.
According to Google translate, the exact quote is:
מדינת ישראל חייבת לשלוט ביטחונית הכל השטח מערבת הירדן.
“The State of Israel must control the security of all the territory west of the Jordan.”
Reverso:
“The State of Israel must control the security of everything from the Jordan Valley.”
From sea to shining sea.
Has nobody realized how analogous it is?
That’s a very alarmist interpretation.
The article admits in the first paragraph that it’s a possible mistranslation. If you’ve been following the rhetoric then you know this is not a new stance, it is a reiteration of the existing question of what body will administer Gaza after the war. Biden has said that the PA should be “revitalized” and assume control of Gaza. Netanyahu has said that the PA lacks the capability, credibility, and capacity to do so. As far as credibility, it’s hard to imagine that Israel is the better option. The idea that Netanyahu is better than the admittedly unpopular Abbas is risible.
Egypt has flat out refused to take on the job, the Arab league has floundered.
It seems like the best solution would be a UN transitional force that would rebuild Gaza with financial support from Qatar and UAE, who have expressed willingness. They would be responsible for maintaining order following the power vacuum of removing Hamas, PIJ, etc. They would have to bolster the PA, establish a police force, systems of governance, and roll out the transition for a peaceful transition of power to the PA (or a newly created body).
That’s no small task. The last thing anyone wants is another Afghanistan. The USA spent decades and billions of dollars to remove the Taliban and establish a democratic system. They finally admitted that it hadn’t worked and handed everything back over to the Taliban.
The alternate translation is “everything west of the Jordan River”. It’s the same thing, just not in a prepackaged sound bite.
That’s not the significant part of the mistranslation, however. This article says that “Israel will take over the entire region” but the more accurate translation is “Israel must have security in the region.”
This article is using the most shocking possible translation just to get clicks.
He’s made it very clear he means to create that security by annexing it all. The article does provide the alternate translations. They do not help Netanyahu’s case.
That’s seems like an awful lot for a tiny little spit of land that basically affects fewer people than any medium sized American city. I think Israel has the superior claim, arguably a duty.
On the one hand, it is a little frustrating to see this global focus when there is so little attention paid to the 1.7 million people displaced in Pakistan of the 6 million people displaced in Sudan, or the 86,000 people killed in Nigeria.
On the other hand, imagine the efforts that the world would go to to free a medium sized American city that was taken captured by terrorists and rebuild it afterword.
Israel may be the best equipped to maintain order, and they have an existential prerogative to do so. However, what does the eventual transfer of power look like in that scenario? The PA and the UN are maybe the only bodies with the credibility to manage and rebuild the area and form a stable and representative government.
Obviously there are significant differences between the circumstances; whether there are leaders and partners on the ground we can work with, whether there is a nuclear power involved, being the significant differences that stand out to me.
I think the transfer of power looks like this: members and accomplices of Hamas are killed as enemy combatants and terrorists, infrastructure is repaired, goods and supplies flow, and and everyone is pretty glad to be rid of them and people who just want to live their lives go and do so, I hope as or at least with a path to full Israeli citizenship and democratic representation. Bibi and his loyalists are also going to need to be voted out by the Israeli people, part of that existential prerogative. Maybe pockets of residence will persist underground. They will be got though.
