[1] These days in Israel, in response to Hamas’ brutal massacre, calls to ethnically cleanse Gaza, deliberately targeting civilians on a mass scale, and other dehumanizing language, have become common.

Here are a few examples of this discourse over the last few days.

THREAD
[2] “If all the captives are not returned immediately, then turn the Strip into a slaughterhouse. If a hair falls from their head - execute security prisoners. Violate all norms on the way to victory…”

David Mizrahy Verthaim -Editor & Journalist Image
[3] “Gaza has to be wiped off from the face of the earth”

Shimon Riklin - Journalist Image
[4] It's time for Nakba 2

Yinon Magal - Journalist and Politician. Image
[5] Bring down buildings!! Bomb without distinction!! Stop with this impotence. You have ability. There is worldwide legitimacy! Flatten Gaza. Without mercy! This time, there is no room for mercy!

Revital Gottlieb - Likud MK Image
[6] “Nakba to the enemy now! This day is our Pearl Harbor. We will still learn the lessons. Right now, one goal: Nakba! A Nakba that will overshadow the Nakba of 48. A Nakba in Gaza and a Nakba for anyone who dares to join!..”

Ariel Kallner - Likud MK Image
[7] Say, why exactly do we have an atomic bomb?

Shimon Riklin - Journalist Image
[8] “Gaza started a war with IL today…When you are at war with another state you don't feed them, you don't provide them with electricity or gas or water or anything else.”

Giora Eiland - was an IDF Major General & the former head of IL NSC

[9] “The world finally understands who the animals we are dealing with are... This allows the IDF to exact a much heavier price from Gaza. Not only from Hamas. Everyone who is celebrating now in Gaza - should cry. It's that simple.”

Ofer Hadad - Journalist & TV Anchor Image
[10] “this [picture of destroyed neighborhood] is how all of Gaza, all of Gaza”

Yinon Magal - Journalist & Anchor Image

Revital Gottlieb - Likud MK Image
[12] "I want a big revenge" "I really hope that our revenge, that of the State of Israel, on the cruel enemy - will be a very big revenge. I don't call them human animals because that would be insulting to animals…"

Sara Netanyahu - PM’s Wife Image
[13] [The war] “needs to be finished with 2 important achievements: Territory: … taking control of all the open areas in [Gaza] … Population: thinning out the population in the [Gaza] Strip as much as possible by encouraging them to leave...”

Shimon Riklin - Journalist Image
[14] “it's an entire nation out there that is responsible. it's not true this rhetoric about civilians not aware not involved, it’s absolutely not true…”

Isaac Herzog - President

[15] “You are confused, we do not need to bring a significant achievement in Gaza - we need to eliminate Gaza. This means that the area needs to be cleaned."

Yinon Magal - Journalist & Anchor Image
[16] “I spoke about a million bodies not as a goal, I said that if, in order to finally eliminate the military capabilities of Hamas, including Sinwar and Deif, we need a million bodies, then let there be a million bodies”

Roy Sharon - Journalist Image
[17] "Erase Gaza, don't leave a single person there."

Eyal Golan - Popular Singer Image
[18] “if the goal of this operation is not destruction, occupation, deportation and settlement, we have done nothing. In the end, the whole country will be [Kibbutz] Be’eri"

Moshe Feiglin - former Likud MK Image
[19] “We must not show mercy to cruel people, there is no place for any humanitarian gestures – we must erase the memory of Amalek (biblical tribe hostile to the Israelites) ".

Boaz Bismuth - Likud MK

[20] “It is not Hamas that should be eliminated. Gaza should be razed and Israel’s rule should be restored to the place. This is our country."

Moshe Feiglin - former Likud MK Image
[21] “A leadership that has mercy on monsters who massacred us is not worthy of leadership. A ceasefire for several hours is surrender, it is weakness, humiliation … Without crushing Hamas and razing Gaza, we will not have the right to exist”

Revital Gottlieb - Likud MK Image

[1] Elisha Yered, a leader in the Hilltop Youth and under sanctions by, UK, EU, Norway, Canada, & Australia, celebrates the displacement of Maghayer a-Deir and the cleansing of 380k dunam in eastern Ramallah from its Palestinian residents (green area on the map). Image
[2] In his column, he twists reality as he writes about Palestinians taking over lands, turning the victim into the aggressor.

You can read the article in Hebrew here, and the unofficial translation to english in the posters below.

[3] Yered praises the Hilltop Youth: ‘The departure of the invasive Arab outpost in Binyamin this week marked the final blow in a historic and unprecedented transformation …The persistence of the hilltops’ people …forced the enemy to withdraw from areas it had already invaded’

[1] On May 11th, the 🇮🇱 cabinet decided to renew the Settlement of Title Land Registration in the West Bank that was halted in 1967. This is one of the most significant annexation moves in years. A little bit nitty gritty but bear with me.

[2] Formal land registration was started by the British following WWI, continued by the Jordanians, and then halted by the IDF in ‘67. So today, only about ⅓ of the land in the West Bank is registered in the Tabu (land registry).
[3] 4 reasons were given to halt the land registration in 1967:
1- Under int’l law, occupation is meant to be temporary, and land registration is permanent.
2- Refugees and absentees are not able to claim their right to their land.

[1] Elisha Yered, one of the leaders of the hilltop youth, sanctioned by the 🇬🇧, EU, 🇨🇦,🇦🇺, and 🇳🇴, celebrates the success of Palestinian displacement as a result of the spread of herding outposts in this revealing column.

[2] For Elisha, indigenous Palestinians living on their lands are an invasive enemy stealing Jewish lands. Now, the tables have turned. “The optimism that a… Pal state was just around the corner has now been replaced by gloom, despair, and mutterings about a ‘third Nakba.’”
[3] “The enemy, used to having the field all to themselves, suddenly found the tables turned and were forced into a rearguard action. Now they are the ones holding emergency meetings… scrambling to prevent their villages from becoming enclaves in Jewish territory.”

Minister @bezalelsm: “2024 had a peak in demolitions and 2025 should be the first year since 1967 in which we destroy more than they build. We are going full steam ahead – with more demolitions, more resources...”



📷of demolitions in Umm al-Khair today inn.co.il/news/661583Image
Demolitions of Palestinian structures in Area C have nothing to do with rule of law, but everything with “control over the land is at the heart of the matter. Whoever controls the territory determines its future. Therefore, in 2025... enforcement must reach a new peak.”
Smotrich admits that in the West Bank there is no rule of law, but rather rule BY law: “The legal system should be part of the solution, not part of the problem. The law is a tool, not a constraint – and we will ensure that it serves our national interests.”

Today in the Tulkarem refugee camp, reportedly, 14 houses will be demolished to make room for a new road. The IDF is recycling tactics it used in refugee camps in Gaza in the early ‘70s.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

🧵
At the beginning of the month, Haaretz reported that 23 buildings were destroyed in the Jenin refugee camp to “widen roads and make changes to built-up areas to facilitate troop movements.”

haaretz.com/israel-news/20…
54 years ago, in August 1971, the IDF did exactly the same thing in the Al-Shati and Jabalia refugee camps. Image

[1] Watch @bezalelsm stating that the Trump administration opens up the opportunity to advance the depopulation of Gaza as a model to adapt the same policy in the WB.

From his speech at a Yesha Council conference last month preparing for the day Trump takes office.

🧵
[2] Smotrich calls for a full re-occupation of Gaza and for the IDF to take over civilian matters in the Gaza Strip.
[3] The Trump administration provides “an opportunity to go one level up and to give this thing a full stamp” i.e. to go beyond steps of De Jure annexation Smotrich has been leading within the ministry of defence.
