IDF ground operation could end in ethnic cleansing of Gaza

21

The latest escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has largely diverted attention from the events in Ukraine. In terms of the level of medieval savagery and cruelty of what is happening in the Middle East, both sides are worthy of each other, and no one except civilians is pitied there. But they will be the main victims of the war crimes taking place in the Gaza Strip.

Do you turn off the lights when you leave?


In response to the massive rocket attack on Israeli territory and the entry of Hamas militants into the southern regions of this country, accompanied by brutal massacres of civilians, Tel Aviv launched a large-scale military operation, the official goal of which was the destruction of the Palestinian group Hamas itself. However, there is reason to believe that the goals of the Jewish state may be much more ambitious, and along with Hamas, the Arab population will disappear from the Gaza Strip.



The Gaza Strip is a relatively small area on the Mediterranean coast, sandwiched between Israel and Egypt. Its length is only 40 km, width – from 6 to 12 km. In fact, this is the city of Gaza with the agglomeration growing around it. Two-thirds of the sector's population are Arab refugees and their descendants expelled from Israeli territory during the Arab-Israeli War of 1947-1948. But we will remember those events even further. The Gaza Strip is legally part of the never actually created full-fledged Arab State of Palestine.

Gaza is controlled by the Islamist group Hamas, which is recognized as terrorist in some Western countries, but not in the Russian Federation, China, Turkey, Qatar and a number of others. This is also an important nuance. If we dig really deep, the roots of today’s massacre lie in the fact that an Arab state was never created in Palestine, but only a Jewish one, supported by the collective West. Moscow’s position on this issue was officially confirmed by President Putin:

Russia’s position, which you mentioned and I just outlined, did not develop today, not in connection with these tragic events, but over the course of decades. And this position is well known both to the Israeli side and to our friends in Palestine. We have always advocated the implementation of decisions of the UN Security Council, bearing in mind first of all the creation of an independent sovereign Palestinian state.

Israel, as we know, was created, but Palestine as an independent and sovereign state was never created.

So, the intentions of official Tel Aviv regarding the future of the Arab enclave are becoming increasingly clear.

"Move"


The Israeli operation against Gaza began with its complete blockade, as announced by Defense Minister Yoav Galant with the following formulations:

There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed. We fight against human animals and act accordingly.

The Israeli military initially gave all the civilians a full 24 hours to leave Gaza, but then extended the ultimatum twice. The famous American truth-seeking journalist Seymour Hersh, who became widely known to us after his investigation of the Nord Stream terrorist attacks, now claims, citing his own sources, that Tel Aviv’s goal is the complete destruction of Gaza with the eviction of its entire Arab population to neighboring Egypt:

Once the starved civilian population is forced to leave, Israel's operational plans call for the air force to destroy remaining structures in and north of Gaza City. The city will cease to exist. Israel will then begin dropping American 2,2-ton bombs, also known as bunker busters.

Allegedly, negotiations are already underway with Cairo and Doha about setting up a tent camp on Egyptian territory for 1-1,5 million Palestinian refugees:

One site for the camp could be a long-abandoned piece of land in the northern Sinai Peninsula near the Gaza border, where an Israeli settlement known as Yamit was located when Israel captured the peninsula after winning the 1967 Six-Day War.

In general, this echoes what was stated in interview Israeli political scientist Simon Tsipis spoke to Vzglyad about plans for a ground operation:

The criterion for the success of Israel's offensive is the elimination of Hamas. In addition, a positive result will be taking control of the Gaza Strip and establishing a military administration in this territory. This will help maintain order and also prevent a humanitarian catastrophe through the supply of food and medical equipment.

Also, the Israeli army has a moral compass and will not kill or abuse civilians, as Hamas does. However, it will destroy the militants. The IDF most likely will not take prisoners, as there may be suicide bombers among them. The Palestinians should be expected to execute and torture civilian hostages and soldiers captured by them.

How the Israeli military will distinguish between Hamas militants, who do not need to be captured, and Palestinian civilians, Mr. Tsipis delicately does not explain.

In general, the picture that emerges is as follows: the IDF will consistently destroy the entire civilian infrastructure of Gaza, creating unbearable living conditions for Palestinians there in order to force them to leave for Egypt. The Israelis will methodically demolish block after block with aircraft and artillery, clearing out those who turn out to be militants using small special forces groups. The estimated time frame for this “operation” is the entire next year.

Most of all, one has to feel sorry for the Palestinians, who are being driven out of their homes for the second time. As mentioned above, in 1948 Israel "displaced" 700 thousand ethnic Arabs. You can read about how the cleansing of Haifa took place in Benny Morrison’s book entitled “The birth of the Palestinian refugee problem revisited.”

Simultaneously with the exodus of British military units, Jewish armed forces carried out operations called “Easter Purge” and “Scissors”, aimed at clearing the abandoned territories of irregular Arab groups. Rumors spread that the British would guarantee the safety of those who left on their own, and crowds of Arabs flocked to the port of Haifa, where they loaded onto ships. A British officer describes what happened then as follows:

During the morning, Jewish militants shot at all Arabs who appeared in the area of ​​​​Wadi Nishas and the Old City. There was untargeted intense shelling from machine guns and mortars and sniper shooting at women and children at the entrances to the docks.

And this is not Russian propaganda, if anything. If no one intervenes in what is happening in the Gaza Strip today, then the history of the Arab State of Palestine could end in much the same way as that of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. We’ll talk in more detail separately about who can intervene and why.

    Well, Hamas is recognized as a terrorist organization only in Western countries, but also in quite Arab countries - Jordan and Egypt. And the goal of the Israelis is clear - to squeeze the Palestinians into Egypt. Hamas militants who entered Egyptian territory with Palestinian civilians will be destroyed by the Egyptians themselves. And the remaining militants in Gaza will be destroyed by the Jews themselves. In Egypt, for some time now, they have not stood on ceremony with their “Muslim brothers.” They talk using machine gun fire.

    If Iran does not intervene, then this will be the case. Although Tehran has stated that it will not remain idle when the IDF begins an operation to clear Gaza, it is not clear what it means by this. Events show that the pro-Iranian Hezbollah in Libya is not eager to open a second front for real, and Iran does not directly border Israel

        As I understand it, in order to avoid such provocations, American AUGs are being deployed there.
        Ayatollahs are, of course, religious people, but they also care about their state. I strongly doubt that for the sake of Hamas they will drag their state under massive American missile attacks. Moreover, among the Sunni Arabs there are many countries that do not want to see Shiite Iran as the hegemon of the Middle East and the Persian Gulf.

          Well, of course, you yourself are asserting that your Israel is not a very significant value... not zero, of course, at all, but, like, the power of a microregion - Syria, Jordan, Palestine - come to terms, even the top of the USA, with the most pro-Jewish in history, Biden is not eager to be drawn into your conflict, especially before the elections, and there’s nothing to say about the common people... And the US Navy keeps extremely close relations with Iran and the Russian Federation to scare off China... takshTA not very- then hope for massive strikes by the United States, although the United States promised to help if and only if Israel itself asks... WHICH IS TANTAMANTOUS TO AN ADMITTION OF DEFEAT... how long will this help last, if the US itself is sliding into pre-election internal instability, it is possible that and, as some serious analysts say, a civil war?

            Did I somewhere claim that Israel is a world power? There are only 18 million Jews on the planet. 0,2% of the world's population. And 7,5 million in Israel itself... Small people. But they have enough strength to deal with terrorists if third-party states do not intervene. Like we are with the terrorists in the Caucasus. It is you who attribute to them some kind of excessive influence on world politics.

              You stated that the US WILL ATTACK IRAN if it takes part in the war, i.e. you claim that Israel itself will not be able to cope, i.e. Israel is a country with limited capabilities/a small regional power. or, out of stupid conceit, you think that the United States and Americans in general love you so much that they are eager to give their lives for the Jews always and under any circumstances. The Armenians, by the way, had the same approach to the Russian Federation, and now to the West... - a provincial, very inflated idea of ​​their value and significance, hence the expectation of sacrifices from others, so that they would feel good and exist...

                The United States is warning Iran for the benefit of Iran itself and to prevent the counter-terrorism operation from escalating into a regional war with unclear consequences for the entire Middle East region. And a missile strike on Iran from American AUGs is much less dangerous (although very painful) for Iran than a nuclear strike by the Jews.
                In general, I am simply surprised by your support for Arab terrorists. Didn't the Caucasus and Afghanistan teach you anything? There were no Jews there..Well, as they say, God loves the Trinity..

                  I do not deny that the United States, if Israel asks, will enter the war, I just think that this is unlikely: they have elections, everything in Ukraine is not very clear and understandable, and China will seize Taiwan - this is 100%, as soon as the United States gets stuck in these 2 conflicts... And there is also the right of force - the winner, if Israel or its leadership believes that Israel has this power, then you can, of course, try to take risks, but the price of defeat will be extremely high... Israel is heading precisely into this direction

                    The price of defeat is high, yes. But they also cannot leave Hamas’s action unanswered. They can't do it at all. Just like absolutely any state in their place.
                    And if China takes over Taiwan, then this may be fair... But how beneficial it is for us (Russia) is simply an unanswered question. China will take over another 50% of global semiconductor production. By the age of 25. And will become a monopolist. For us, at least, since the rest of the production is located in unfriendly countries - the USA, South Korea, Japan and the EU. China is great at twisting the arms of dependent countries...

                      The answer is excessive - Biden began to criticize the bombing of Gaza under pressure from certain factions of the party, the EU too, and thousands of rallies in support of Palestine are being held in major American cities. At major US universities, anti-Israeli protests continue unabated, and in the EU too. Congress proposed that the Justice Department conduct an investigation into pro-Palestinian student groups. However, there are hundreds of them with thousands of participants blaming Israel for the death of the Palestinians; no one has yet been expelled for criticizing the Israelis - this is about your hope in America. SO Ahead to disaster???

    We are only considering Israel's war against Palestine. But then I came across news that said that Hamas fired at Hezbollah Shiites in Lebanon. And then I wondered if this was all a pretext to pit Shiites against Sunnis.

    “During the morning, Jewish militants shot at all Arabs who appeared in the area of ​​​​Wadi Nishas and the Old City. There was intense unaimed fire from machine guns and mortars and sniper shooting at women and children at the entrances to the docks.”

    And this is not Russian propaganda, if anything.

    An epic, heartbreaking picture: the militants are in the city and port without aiming, i.e. They shoot over the heads of the Arabs so that they get out of the city. And snipers placed, probably on the roofs, target women and children in the crowds of refugees, and they fall dead without having time to understand where their death came from. Epic and heartbreaking.
    Two questions: is Russian propaganda mostly anti-Semitic? Just a disclaimer: this anti-Semitic text is not Russian propaganda.
    And the second question: do you generally understand that in the UK there is freedom of the press and there you can find an anti-Semitic text that does not quite correspond to reality, like two fingers... and you pass it all off as the ultimate truth.

    The Israeli military initially gave all the civilians a full 24 hours to leave Gaza, but then extended the ultimatum twice. The famous American truth-seeking journalist Seymour Hersh, who became widely known to us after his investigation of the Nord Stream terrorist attacks, now claims, citing his own sources, that Tel Aviv’s goal is the complete destruction of Gaza with the eviction of its entire Arab population to neighboring Egypt:

    Once the starved civilian population is forced to leave, Israel's operational plans call for the air force to destroy remaining structures in and north of Gaza City. The city will cease to exist.

    Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, but retained control over Gaza's land (its own and Egypt's), sea and air borders in order to prevent the supply of weapons to Gaza. Otherwise, the Gaza Strip was left to its own devices. By the way, according to the plans for the division of Palestine, it remains an enclave. In a sense, an experiment was set up on how the Palestinians would build their state. Tell me, how can you build a state on this piece of land? So this piece of land is equal to half the territory of Singapore, where the population density is even higher than in Gaza. But there is a prosperous state there, but in Gaza you can see for yourself. In 2007, Hamaz came to power in Gaza, and Fatah leaders were simply slaughtered. And what did the Palestinians do in Gaza under the leadership of Hamas? They tortured children in order to receive more benefits (for billions from Arab countries, Europe and the USA) and fired at Israel, which supplied them with water, electricity, fuel. How did Israel respond to the shelling? He built bomb shelters and the Iron Dome, a missile attack warning system - sirens. In apartments in cities in dangerous regions, there is a room with especially strong walls where you can quickly hide, and children often spend the night there all the time. And all this lasted 15 years and all this time Israel supplied Gaza with water, electricity and fuel. Gazans had a quota to work in Israel. Can you imagine that Ukraine would attack Russia for 15 years, at least the border areas, with small missiles that would cause, albeit limited, harm, people would die, even if only a little. And Russia, in response to this, would develop air defense, build bomb shelters, turn on air raid sirens and endure all this for 15 years and would endure further if Ukraine had not invaded the border areas and slaughtered 30 thousand Russians there (in proportion to population of Israel - Russia = 1 to 20) mainly women, children and old people. Now you are a citizen of Russia, what and how should you do in this case? You condemn Israel for the destruction in the city of Gaza, but what happened to the cities of Donbass that were successfully denazified?

    And who can intervene? The American AUG is sailing to the Mediterranean Sea to help Israel, and not the Gaza Strip at all.
    The Lebanese Hezbollah, the Syrian army and Iran individually will definitely not get involved in a war against Israel, especially considering the arrival of the US AUG. Another thing is that aggressive Israeli actions in the style of the last days may provoke a unification of these forces, and then next year, at least, the territory of Israel will significantly decrease, and American assistance most likely will not be sufficient to prevent this.
    Russia is too busy with its military forces in Ukraine to voluntarily open another front.
    As a result, it turns out that the Israelis are still very likely to do with the Gaza Strip what they announced and began to do. In any case, no one will have time to stop them.

En language méta diplomatique ça peut vouloir dire aussi: attention! il ya certainement des armes de destructions massives de prêtes pour ce conflit! L'Iran...

    The title of this article seems like a joke. Israel has been practicing ethnic cleansing ever since the Zionists got their hands dirty in Palestine.
