Updated 5:25 AM EDT, May 5, 2025TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel approved plans on Monday to capture the entire Gaza Strip and remain in the territory for an unspecified amount of time, two Israeli officials said, in a move that if implemented would vastly expand Israel’s operations in the Palestinian territory and likely bring fierce international opposition.
Israeli Cabinet ministers approved the plan in an early morning vote, hours after the Israeli military chief said the army was calling up tens of thousands of reserve soldiers.
As if that wasn't the goal all along. The UN finally got around to calling it genocide, and still nobody's actually lifting a finger to stop it - so why sugar-coat their intentions any longer.
It's genocide. Just say it.
Damn, so full annexation of the Gaza strip. Someone should tell them that that's against the UN charter. They might get a strongly worded email if they're not careful. Shit, they might even lose their membership!
This was the plan the whole time; genocide and conquest.
Remember when everyone was like, "What??? They would never do that!"
There'll be people denying that's the plan while the death camps are open. Just like Nazis kept denying the Holocaust the whole time, and even after the fact.
They must deny that their targets even exist, to further depersonalization, so they don't even have the dignity of being acknowledged as an oppressed minority. "We didn't do it, because they don't exist; and if they did, we would be in our rights to enact our final solution for them."
sniff
Something smell like genocide in here
And when this happens, they can come crying to the U.S. like they usually do. But there's not a damn thing the U.S. or anyone else can do about climate change.
So, that's what it's like to live through a state sponsored genocide. Apocalyptic for the victims, banal for the rest.
...again.
"New plan" like this wasn't always the end goal
New plan?
Yea this has been the plan since 1897 as stated at the first zionist conference
Lebensraum
well I held my vote for the Democrats, i don't know what else you want me to do.

Good thing the dems made it easy by putting the interests of a foreign genocidal apartheid state before their voters. With a bit of luck, we might be able to successfully blame everyone but them, and they might be confident enough to repeat the same strategy and lose the next election as well.
yeah they are shitty but a non-vote is the moral equivalent of burning your house down because your dog shit the bed.
Heads in the right place, fucking awful execution
Good thing the dems made it easy by putting the interests of a foreign genocidal apartheid state before their voters. [...] repeat the same strategy and lose the next election as well.
Republicans are literally laying the ground work to turn the USA into a fascist dictatorship that is in lock step with Russia and Israel, but alright cool. Good thing we have more concern for a foreign conflict then the survival of our own democracy.
