By Caitlin Johnstone You always see Israel apologists saying “If Hamas lays down its arms there’ll be no more war, if Israel lays down its arms there’ll be no more Israel.”
But really the exact opposite is true. If the Israelis lay down their arms, a genocide ends. If Hamas lays down their arms, Israel’s planned ethnic cleansing of Gaza happens quickly and without resistance.
Israel has been very clear and explicit about the fact that its onslaught in Gaza will not end until Trump’s plan for the ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip is completed. Hamas could surrender and release all the hostages today and this ethnic cleansing agenda would still move forward as planned, according to Israel’s top officials. They’ve been completely unambiguous about this.
Anyone who says this nightmare would end if Hamas surrenders is lying. All that would happen if Hamas surrenders is Palestinians being purged from a Palestinian territory forever.
Israeli politicians and official government social media accounts have begun pushing the narrative that Muslim immigrants are a threat to Europe, the implication being that Europeans should support Israel because Israel is helping to kill the Muslims.
Israel’s Arabic language Twitter account recently posted a graph showing the number of Mosques across Europe accompanied by right wing “great replacement”-style talking points, saying that “This is the true face of colonization. And this is what is happening while Europe is oblivious and does not care about the danger.”
Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett tweeted last month that “Europe is becoming Islamized,” fearmongering about the number of Muslim immigrants throughout Europe.
Benjamin Netanyahu tweeted on Wednesday that “Belgian Prime Minister de Wever is a weak leader who seeks to appease Islamic terrorism by sacrificing Israel. He wants to feed the terrorist crocodile before it devours Belgium.”
They don’t want Muslims to live in Palestine. They don’t want Muslims to live in Europe. Kinda seems like they just don’t want Muslims to live.
