TEL 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.

The erasure of a people to take their land was always the plan here.

These imperial headlines are pure propaganda garbage.

~~Israel~~ Zionists plans to ~~capture~~ ethnically cleanse and steal all of Gaza under new plan, officials say

It's not even worth posting this disinfo. Look up the same story by Al Jazeera or something. It won't be great but it won't the worst possible bullshit.

Why aren't I surprised? This has always been the zionist's end game......

.....and to state this will 'draw fierce international opposition' is laughable - the zionist's are emboldened 100% due to the very lack of 'international opposition'.

Raphael Lemkin, who first coined the term, defined genocide as "the destruction of a nation or of an ethnic group" by means such as "the disintegration of [its] political and social institutions, of [its] culturelanguage, national feelings, religion, and [its] economic existence".
