Foreign Minister Eli Cohen told Israeli Army Radio that Israel’s war aims are not just the total destruction of Hamas, but the country also aims to reduce the size of Gaza. The pronouncement is the most explicit indication yet that Israel will move to annex parts of Gaza, as some analysts have speculated.

    Yet I’ve seen some delusional people say “Israel is the only one that wants a 2 state solution!”

    There it is. Israel wants to kill Palestinians, throw the remaining to anywhere else (Egypt), so they can take all the land to themselves.

    Disgusting illegal terrorist state.

      The asymmetry of power is so severe that Israel could flatten every building in Gaza and butcher every person there in a single day if they really wanted to. Yes, Israel does horrible things to Palestinians, but if you’re going to start from “Israel wants to kill Palestinians”, you kinda have to explain why they don’t do it even more than they already do.

      As bad as exiling them to Egypt would be, that might at least be better than an open air prison getting bombed all the time.

        Is that what Ukrainians should do too? Just move somewhere else and let their land be taken by the enemy?

          Yeah if they don’t want to be a part of Russia. I struggle to sympathize with Ukraine because their government seems so similar to Russia anyway and the county basically has a fake national history.

          i will be honest here: it is morally bad and rewards both invasors, but if i were a palestinian or ukrainian person, i would absolutely try to get out and take my whole family with me (and advise and try to help the extended family, and friends and their families too), to egypt jordania rest of MENA, or europe-US respectivelly. I would not want to take a bomb or get shot in neither terrain.

        You seem to have rather right wing views, but this part of the fediverse has always been fairly left wing as far as I can tell.

        The only nations in modern history that have vowed and tried to wipe Jews off the planet have been in Europe.
