God's Gift.

           Does anybody still believe that Israel's plan for Gaza is simply to destroy Hamas? Hour by hour it becomes clear that it is still the religious fanatics plan of a Greater Israel, to remove the Palestinians from Gaza by completely flatting the entire Gaza strip to rubble, no homes, no hospitals, no schools, no shops, no roads, creating conditions that make it impossible for any civilised society to exist. Forcing the people of Gaza to flee and become refugees in another land, then the West Bank will be handled similarly. All this bloodshed and slaughter based on the idiotic belief that more than 2,000 years ago their wee man in the sky granted them this land. I wonder what their god thinks of them as the wilfully slaughter thousands of innocent men women and children to realise his gift.

         To grasp the extent of the ruthless, relentless bombing that is being unleashed on the people of Gaza, I repeat this extract from an article by Alistair Crooke.
         

The large ‘elephant’ is this: Israel has dropped more than 25,000 tons of high explosives since 7 October (the 1945 Hiroshima nuke was 15,000 tons equivalent). What exactly is Netanyahu and his war cabinet’s aim here? Ostensibly, the earlier military operation in Jabalia Camp was about targeting a Hamas leader suspected of lurking under the camp – but six 2,000 lb bombs for one Hamas ‘target’ in a crowded refugee camp? And why too the attacks on water cisterns, hospital solar energy panels and hospital entrances, roads, schools and bakeries?
       Bread has almost disappeared in Gaza. The UN says all bakeries in northern Gaza have closed following the bombing of the last bakeries. Clean water is desperately short, and thousands of bodies are slowly decomposing under rubble. Disease and epidemic are appearing, whilst humanitarian supplies are being tightly restricted as a bargaining tool toward further hostage releases..

Editor of Haaretz, Aluf Benn, puts the Israeli strategy very plainly:

        “The expulsion of the Palestinian residents, transformation of their homes into piles of construction rubble, and the restriction of the entry of supplies and fuel into Gaza are the “tiebreaking move” employed by Israel in the current conflict, unlike all previous rounds of fighting in the Strip”.
