Slowly, slowly, the northern Strip, including Gaza City... will become some kind of a distant dream (for the Palestinians). Just as they forgot about Ashkelon, they'll forget about this area as well.
Gazans will be concentrated in a very defined area and live as refugees their whole lives without water or electricity until they decide, of their own accord, to emigrate.
Anyone who stays there [in north Gaza] will be judged by law as a terrorist and will go through either a process of starvation or a process of extermination
As Hitler, may his name be erased, once said: "I cannot live in this world if there is one Jew left in it", we could not live in this land if even one such Islamo-Nazi remains in Gaza, and not before we return to Gaza and turn it into Hebrew Gaza.
There are no half measures. [The Gazan cities of] Rafah, Deir al-Balah, Nuseirat – total annihilation. 'You will blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven' – there's no place under heaven.
Rafah, Deir al Balah, Nuseirat? Total Extermination! We'll destroy any semblance of Amalek from under the sky.
These people there [in Gaza] deserve death. A hard death, an agonizing death. And instead we see them enjoying on the beach, having fun... There are no innocent people there in the Gaza Strip... They are now enjoying on the beach, instead of starving, being jerked around, being severely tormented and hiding from shelling... We should have seen a lot more revenge, a lot more rivers of Gazans' blood
We need to strike the enemy with ten plagues, wipe out the memory of Amalek, to outstretch the arm with a mighty hand & give him one blow until it screams.
There is a very, very important message here: a hospital is not a safe place.
There are no civilians in this war.
The one who comes to kill you here, in the broad sense, is not the person 16-30, the one who points his weapon at you. But also the next generation, and those who give birth to the next generation. In reality there is no difference.
The elderly people? There is no such thing as an innocent person in Gaza. By the way, the elderly man is capable of carrying a rifle and shooting.
You can't be clever with the Torah, and when the Torah says "Do not spare any soul" then you must not spare any soul. Today he is a child, today he is a youth, and tomorrow he is a fighter. The fighters, or those whom we call terrorists, who are 18 years old today, were 8 years old in the previous war. Therefore you must not stop [killing].
Today it was proven that the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza is not only madness while our abductees are being held in the Strip under substandard conditions, but also endangers the IDF soldiers. This is another clear reason why we must stop transferring this aid, which is in fact aid to harm the IDF soldiers and oxygen to Hamas.
We need to erase this concept of 'the month of Ramadan' and our fear of this month.
I am personally proud of the ruins of Gaza, and that every baby, even 80 years from now, will tell their grandchildren what the Jews did.
You will die, your children will die, your grandchildren will die - there won't be a Palestinian state, there won't be.
I see victory. I see all their infrastructure being annihilated. I see that they don't have one house [not destroyed]. See hundreds of thousands fleeing like Nakba, walking towards exile! I see it with my own eyes.
Our war is not with Hamas but with the Palestinian people. A nation of murderers and rapists - not only should we not make peace with them, but we must fight them everywhere.
In Gaza, everyone is involved. Everyone voted Hamas. Anyone over the age of four is a Hamas supporter.
[The] only humane solution for Gaza is the mass deportation of its inhabitants.
The Hague Schmag 🇮🇱
The Hague knows my position [about using nuclear weapons against the civilian population in Gaza].
Providing humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip is simply a crime... Using the term non-combatants is simply madness.
The price they must pay for what they've done to us should not be limited to merely punishing, the killing of insurgents. We are not talking about a conflict imposed on us, that's illogical. We refer to them as 'spaces,' while they call them 'land,' from which the word 'human' is derived. In the Middle East, it means that a human without land is worth nothing and has no right to exist. Therefore, the price they must pay for it to impact future generations is that we must take their land. First, we must take the land, after we have taken their land, we'll think about what we'll do next. The second thing we need to push for, despite all voices and opinions, is new migration and helping them find a new life. Gaza is certainly now destroyed and not suitable for human habitation. And I expect the Western world, as they did by welcoming a million Syrian refugees, to open their doors and welcome the people of Gaza.
We must find ways for Gazans that are more painful than death.
Every school, every Mosque, every second house has access to tunnels. Do you have another solution [other than destroying all of Gaza]?
Today it is clear to everyone that all Gazans must be destroyed.
It is impossible to win a war against a cruel nation like the Palestinians with humanity. They are all, from the greatest to the smallest, a criminal nation of rapists, child murderers, and kidnappers of the elderly and children. Their fate is one – death.
There are so many buildings in Shujaiyyah that are still standing. Shujaiyyah must be razed to the ground.
There are no uninvolved, neither in Khan Yunis nor in Saja'iya. They are all deserving of death. This must be the working assumption. Bombard without mercy from the air! Ground maneuvers only after flattening buildings. Every Gazan who did not heed the IDF's request to leave is a terrorist assistant. And if [President] Biden or any other kind-hearted person has a problem with this working assumption, he is welcome to enter Gaza himself.
The whole Gaza Strip needs to be empty. Flattened. Just like in Auschwitz. Let it be a museum for all the world to see what Israel can do. Let no one reside in the Gaza Strip for all the world to see, because October 7 was in a way a second Holocaust.
If it were up to me, I would have dispatched D-9 bulldozers and put them behind the mounds of dirt and would have given the order to cover all these hundreds of ants, while they're still alive. [...] They aren't human beings and not human animals. They're subhuman and that's how they should be treated. [...] Eradicate the memory of Amalek, and never forget.
Bombard from the air without mercy!! Enough with having mercy on the cruel at such painful costs. Enough with having mercy on 'uninvolved' Gazans. There are no uninvolved. Every Gazan who remains in a place of combat is an assistant to a terrorist organization. Enough! Change tactics. Destroy every place where there are terrorists and terrorist assistants. From the air!! Do not risk soldiers' lives if it is possible to bombard from the air!
There are no innocents in Gaza
The enemy will meet first the bombs of the Air Force, and after that the shells of the tanks and artillery and the scoops of the D9 bulldozers, and finally gunfire of the infantry troops. We will fight the entire strip.
After we turn Khan Younis into a soccer field […] we need to take advantage of the destruction to tell the countries that each of them should take a quota, it can be 20K or 50K. We need all 2 million to leave. That's the solution for Gaza.
Who's left in Gaza? Are there citizens? There are only tunnels, Hamas, and accursed terrorists who murdered children and are holding children hostage. We have to crush Gaza, Gaza is Hamas.
We are too humane. Burn Gaza now. No less!
The name Gaza should be erased from streets and institutions.
No electricity, no food, no water, no gas. It's all closed. We are fighting animals and are acting accordingly.
First of all, the plans for 'the day before' – is to win the war with a total victory, not close, not pretending, a total victory! To imprint the notion of Nakba 2 in their minds. As for the question of 'the day after'? It should look like this: Gaza returns to its state from 56 years ago, where they are small, wounded, battered, busy burying their loved ones, and above all, very frightened!
Whoever returns here, if they return here after, will find scorched earth. No houses, no agriculture, no nothing. They have no future.
Vengeance is a great value. There is vengeance over what they did to us ... This place will be a fallow land. They will not be able to live here”
Erase Gaza from the face of the earth. Let the Gazan monsters rush to the southern border and flee into Egypt, or die. And let them die badly. Gaza should be wiped off the map.
Now in Gaza there are only two types of Palestinians: Palestinians who support and are graduates of Hamas's Nazi education and Palestinians who serve as human shields for them. We can and must bomb both.
This testimony, which joins a multitude of shocking testimonies and demonstrations of joy by children, youth, adults, and elders - women as well as men, has led me to the understanding that every inhabitant of the Strip who does not fight against ISIS Gaza, is a son of death. I am convinced that it will be possible to evacuate those few sane individuals from the territory of the Strip. Dear citizens of Israel, achieving world support for the elimination of Hamas is not considered an achievement and there is no logic in creating an equation that differentiates between uniformed individuals and the rest of the inhabitants there, except as mentioned for the exemption of those who go against that oppressive regime! Therefore, I am full of hope and anticipation that the decision-makers will clarify to the world about updating the war targets. The destruction of Gaza and all its inhabitants. They set the norms for both us and them, and we will act not to disappoint them and will operate, God willing, with strength, determination, and cool-headedness until a clear victory. I will pursue my enemies and overtake them, and I will not return until they are consumed. Together we will win!
What does it mean to harm all the population? There are no innocents! That's exactly it. You're saying now 'population'! There is no population! There are two and a half million terrorist- therefore, warning before bombing is meaningless. Warning has to be for innocents only and since there's no innocent, so, there's no problem. When I said 'they are all terrorists [Interviewer: "What does it mean? Kill everybody?"] This is the perception, that there is something defined in times of war called 'The hour of grace.'
'May your village burn'!! Yes, yes, as far as I'm concerned, it's great morale to wish for Gaza to be erased and set on fire. I have said more than once that revenge is a value. They almost conquered the kibbutzim in the south, slaughtered, raped, beheaded, and gouged out eyes, nearly 1400 murdered in a single Sabbath. So let their village burn. And if 'La Familia' sings this, it's because they understand that the enemy only understands force! And more force.
You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember.
We still have not revenged in a biblical way…we did not burn Gaza to ashes immediately. Create a tremendous humanity crisis. Level the entire area. Do not leave a stone upon stone in Gaza. Gaza needs to turn to Dresden. Annihilate Gaza now!
I would like to say that we, in Israel, at least the population, are not interested in all this rational Palestinian talk. For us, there is one purpose: to destroy Gaza, to destroy this absolute evil. To destroy this. There is no chance that after the holocaust, Jewish people will live similar experiences as they [experienced] 80 years ago.
Returning to the Gush Katif / Playing beach volleyball / Establishing Nova Beach on the Gaza coast / The nation of Israel lives!
There is one and only one solution, which is to completely destroy Gaza before invading it. And when I talk about destruction, I mean destruction like it was in Dresden and Hiroshima, without a nuclear weapon.
There are no innocents in Gaza. There are no ordinary citizens in Gaza. Every adult was trained to kill. Every woman is a monster. Every boy aspires to be a martyr Every baby will grow up to be a terrorist. wipe out, kill, destroy, annihilate.
Every building that falls in Gaza is a building from which Hamas executes their terrorist activities.
On the first night, we should have taken down 50,000 Gazans, as a blood revenge. Cabinet discussions later, humanitarian later, prisoners and missing persons later. The first check - blood revenge. This is what Ben Gurion knew.
Anyone who saw the sights of the tongues of distilled Arab evil towards the people of Israel knows that the answer to the Arabs must be the total annihilation of Gaza and all the two-legged animals there. Nothing will bring comfort... and yet we demand revenge under the clear assumption that there is no innocent person in Gaza.
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.
If the Prime Minister Netanyahu and his ministers cared about the State of Israel, there would already be 150,000 dead in the Gaza Strip, and not even a single building would be standing in the Strip.
We must not show mercy to cruel people, there is no place for any humanitarian gestures – we must erase the memory of Amalek.
Total erasure of Gaza, total and not a human life spared.
Erase the memory of them. Erase them, their families, mothers and children. These animals can no longer live. Every Jew with a weapon should go out and kill them. If you have an Arab neighbor don’t wait. Go to his home and shoot him.
Gaza will eventually turn into a city of tents. There will be no buildings.
I don't care about Gaza. I literally don't care at all. They can go out and swim in the sea. I want to see dead bodies of terrorists around Gaza.
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.
Only an explosion that shakes the Middle East will restore this country's dignity, strength and security! It's time to kiss doomsday. Shooting powerful missiles without limit. Not flattening a neighborhood. Crushing and flattening Gaza ... without mercy! Without mercy!
The emphasis is on damage and not on accuracy.
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.
A fire storm should wash over Gaza.
Five days have passed since Muslims carried out the largest massacre in history of Jews, on the land of Israel, since the establishment of the State of Israel. And still [N]etanyahu refuses to give the moral order to crush and erase the cities of terror from which the murderers of our brothers emerged. Shame!
Gaza won’t return to what it was before. We will eliminate everything. If it doesn’t take one day, it will take a week. It will take weeks or even months, we will reach all places.
Creating a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza is a necessary means to achieve the goal. Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist.
The unequivocal goal of the war we are in the midst of is ... the complete dismantling of [military and] civilian capabilities.
Every Jew knows the saying 'Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way ... and that is what [H*] did and their judgement shall be to destroy them, full stop. I relate to them like Amalek.
Those are animals, they have no right to exist. I am not debating the way it will happen, but they need to be exterminated.
This [attack] is not enough, there should be more, there should be no limits to the response, I said it a million times, until we see hundreds of thousands fleeing Gaza, we, the IDF has not achieved its mission, this is a phase that should happen, I am saying this cause these are instructions that were said to the IDF [...] I also do not want [the IDF] to get inside [Gaza] before crushing everything, I’d rather the falling of fifty buildings than one more casualty to our forces.
I ordered to immediately cut off the water supply from Israel to Gaza. Electricity and fuel were cut off yesterday. What was will not be.
Jericho [Nuclear] Missile! Jericho Missile! A strategic alert, before considering the introduction of forces. A doomsday weapon! This is my opinion. May God preserve all our strength.
Erase Gaza. Nothing else will satisfy us. It is not acceptable that we have a terrorist authority next to Israel. Do not leave a child there to expel all the remaining ones at the end, so that they will not have a resurrection.
The goal has been defined - there will be no operational capability left against the State of Israel. In order to achieve the goal, at the tactical level, it cannot happen without the population fleeing.
Throughout the past 24 hours, we have been conducting aerial strikes- destructive aerial operations that include thousands of armaments. To put that in perspective, the pace of the strikes is five times that of the strikes on Hezbollah in the Second Lebanon War. I repeat, five times what it was against Hezbollah in the Second Lebanon War.
We need to deal a blow that hasn’t been seen in 50 years and take down Gaza.
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!
All of Gaza’s infrastructures must be destroyed to its foundation and their electricity cut off immediately. The war is not against Hamas but against the state of Gaza.
We don't care how many children will be killed on the other side and how many terrorists and how many women and how many men... We need to break apart Gaza.
It's time to subdue them [the Palestinians] once and for all, and to make it the last war.
The Palestinian people has declared war on us, and we must respond with war. Not an operation, not a slow-moving one, not low-intensity, not controlled escalation, no destruction of terror infrastructure, no targeted killings. Enough with the oblique references. This is a war. Words have meanings. This is a war. It is not a war against terror, and not a war against extremists, and not even a war against the Palestinian Authority. These too are forms of avoiding reality. This is a war between two people. Who is the enemy? The Palestinian people. Why? Ask them, they started.
The goal of the operation is to send Gaza back to the Middle Ages. Only then will Israel be calm for forty years.
The Arabs will have to go, but one needs an opportune moment for making it happen, such as a war.
The only thing that should enter Gaza as long as Hamas doesn't release the hostages it holds is not a gram of humanitarian aid, but hundreds of tons of explosives from the Air Force.
The children of Gaza have brought this upon themselves.
It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not being involved. It's absolutely not true.
We will turn Gaza into a deserted island.
I am very puzzled by the constant concern which the world ... is showing for the Palestinian people and is actually for these horrible inhuman animals.
[Because there are] no non-combatants in Gaza [using an atomic weapon is] one of the possibilities.
Hamas is not the enemy, but Gaza is the enemy. [...] It is not important who you warn, or who evacuates a neighborhood. This is what is called flattening the area, leveling the ground. You ask me what I would do? The answer is simply leveling the ground, and to kill the largest number possible. Because the woman is an enemy, the baby is an enemy, and the first grader is an enemy. The Hamas militant is an enemy and the pregnant woman is an enemy. We see it with our own eyes.
I want to move on to one point, speaking of Gaza, speaking of Lebanon, and other places we'll occupy in the future. Since we want to maintain equilibrium as a developed country, punishment as a strategy should be the main element. In punishment you have room to maneuver, you decide whether you slap them once or twice, in front or from behind, whether to strike property or leaders, but the main objective of units in the field is to kill the enemy. Before he makes contact, while he makes contact, and then when he retreats. That's the most important thing. Quantity is more important than quality. One mistake the [Israeli] Army makes is judging each case individually, whether the person deserves to die or not. Most of these people [Gazans, Palestinians, Lebanese, Arabs] were born to die, we just have to help them.
It is our right to transfer the Arabs.
