The international community warns us of a humanitarian disaster in Gaza and of severe epidemics. We must not shy away from this, as difficult as that may be. After all, severe epidemics in the south of the Gaza Strip will bring victory closer.
This is a good point. And it clears away the binary between Hamas command center and just a hospital. It clearly isn't either of those two, but something in the middle
We are too humane. Burn Gaza now. No less!
A return to Jewish settlement in the northern Gaza Strip is a correct and logical answer to the murderous terrorist attack by Hamas! The settlement will help restore security, and fix the image of Israeli victory in the eyes of our enemy.
The name Gaza should be erased from streets and institutions.
1. Annexing Area C is necessary, because if not, everything that happened to us in the Gaza envelope will happen to us in Kfar Saba, Herzliya, Ra'anana, and more. It's just a matter of time. 2. Annexing the northern Strip of Gaza is necessary, because if not, the residents of the Gaza envelope are again in existential danger. 3. We lost our reading of the security map since we called settlement 'settlement', since we called the pioneers 'hilltop youth'. It's important to note that the value of land is not only biblical but also grants us geopolitical depth and a grip on the territory which allows us to ensure our right to exist. We must return to the roots; the Maccabees, of blessed memory.
Unfortunately underneath Shifa [hospital] there is a huge, huge terror base. Actually the headquarters, the headquarters, of Hamas-ISIS operations is underneath Shifa!
We are now rolling out the Gaza Nakba ... There is no way to wage a war – as the IDF seeks to do in Gaza – with masses between the tanks and the soldiers ... Gaza Nakba 2023. That’s how it’ll end.
Instead of funneling money to rebuild Gaza or to the failed UNRWA, the international community can assist in the costs of resettlement, helping the people of Gaza build new lives in their new host countries. Gaza has long been thought of as a problem without an answer.
I think the Arabs in Judea and Samaria have no right to ask for rights or take part in elections for the Knesset. They lost their right to vote for the Knesset. They will never get this right.
No electricity, no food, no water, no gas. It's all closed. We are fighting animals and are acting accordingly.
[t]o be clear, when we say that Hamas should be destroyed, it also means those who celebrate, those who support, and those who hand out candy — they’re all terrorists, and they should also be destroyed.
We will hold Gaza after the war too, we will not trust international forces.
The word genocide is being thrown around so much it's losing all meaning -- a lot like antisemitism. This is in itself dangerous.
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!
We can certainly bring back the settlements of Gush Katif [evacuated in 2005], there is no status quo and nothing is sacred.
One of the options is to drop an atomic bomb on Gaza. I pray & hope for their [hostages] return, but there is also a price in war.
Let us distribute Gazans all over the world, there are 2.5 million people. Each country takes 25,000. That's human and needs to be done.
I don’t see a big difference between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. The Arabs are the same Arabs.
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”
They [Jews who care about Palestine] exploit and appropriate Jewish ritual items and texts, their Jewish names and backgrounds, and even – perversely – their families’ stories of persecution and mass murder to cause harm to the Jewish people and their state. The time has come to regard these individuals and groups as having separated themselves from the Jewish community and the Jewish people.
[T]his is the war between the sons of light and the sons of darkness. We will not let up on our mission until the light overcomes the darkness — the good will defeat the extreme evil that threatens us and the entire world.
The war will never end if we don't expel them all.
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.
I am saying here to the citizens of Lebanon, I already see the citizens in Gaza walking with white flags along the coast ... If Hezbollah makes mistakes of this kind, the ones who will pay the price are first of all the citizens of Lebanon. What we are doing in Gaza, we know how to do in Beirut.
The north of the Gaza Strip, more beautiful than ever. Everything is blown up and flattened, simply a pleasure for the eyes ... We must talk about the day after. In my mind, we will hand over lots to all those who fought for Gaza over the years and to those evicted from Gush Katif” [a former Israeli settlement].
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.
The Gaza siege plan: impose a total siege on the north of the Gaza Strip, dry up and suffocate the Hamas terrorists in the tunnels until they are forced to come out; create a new security strip 2 km deep into the territory of the Strip along our entire border, a permanent Strip... Imagine bulldozers simply levelling the area; Countries around the world can take in the refugees- only temporarily, of course- until Hamas surrenders and the war ends. Between 6 months and 5 years; In the south of the Gaza Strip … we allow (but do not give ourselves): water, food, medicine ... We aren't allowing any drop of fuel to enter the entire Strip. Without fuel there are no tunnels because there is no ventilation and no lighting... Any country in the world that expresses pain over the situation of the refugees in the south is invited to temporarily host refugees (Scotland, Egypt, Turkey, etc.).
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!
We will destroy Hamas without mercy - I want revenge ... The beach of Gaza will be the blood of terrorists and I am not ashamed to say that.
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.
When the whole world condemns us, we will know we reacted properly.
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.
Without hunger and thirst among the Gazan population, we will not be able to recruit collaborators, we will not be able to recruit intelligence, we will not be able to bribe people, with food, drink, medicine, in order to obtain intelligence.
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.
They BAKED A JEWISH BABY ALIVE in an oven. They murdered his father. They gang raped his mother, over and over and laughed all along. While they baked her baby alive in the oven. The Palestinians support Hamas. They LOVE Hamas. NO RESUPPLY. NO CONCESSIONS. NO MERCY.
Nakba?! expel them all. If the Egyptians care so much for them - they are welcome to have them wrapped in cellophane tied with a green ribbon. Salamat [Goodbye in Arabic]!
If the goal of this operation is not destruction, occupation, deportation and settlement, we have done nothing.
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.
A complete siege on Gaza. No water, no electricity, no food. Like in Beirut 1982. Water for the south of the Gaza Strip - only in exchange for the return of the kidnapped children and women.
The spirit of Oslo is still here. And if we don't get rid of it … we will lose again. With Nazis & their assistants, you don't talk. You eradicate evil from the world. Do you want your pop [in Gaza] to drink? Release the hostages.
