  1. Are we forgetting that Israel had full control of Gaza after capturing it in a defensive war against Egypt. They settled it, built infrastructure, and then unilaterally withdrew and dismantled all of their settlements in the decades to follow.

  2. Its probably the only thing that will prevent another Oct 7th attack at this stage. Hamas isn’t interested in long term peace, Palistinians in the West Bank and Gaza are not interested in state that agrees to live peacefully with Isreal as a neighbor.

    Isreal either takes control of Gaza like it controls the West Bank or it will continue to suffer attacks across the border. Maybe the next generation of Palistinians will say “yes” when they are offered a independent state.

  3. This is like that paper towel math where 75%=100% or 12 rolls=36 rolls.

  4. Didn’t he plan to capture 100% of Gaza and put it under the control of a pro-Israeli Arab militia back in November of ’23?

    I have no doubt this is a plan, but I strongly doubt he’ll actualy do this. Partly because it sounds like it’s going to be very hard to do without some sort of local auxiliaries, and this is not a plan that recruits local auxiliries; and partly because endless war suits him politically.

  9. So the all eyes on xyz did nothing at all ??? Wow who would have thought ……

  10. 75% is a funny way to say 100% of Gaza and the West Bank

  14. It’s wild that Israel gave it to the Palestinians (it was never their ancestral land but part of Egypt) when Egypt woudln’t take it back six times in a row. The world pushes Israel to give it to the Palestinians swearing it would result in peace.

    So they did.

    And the Palestinians immediately attacked them and called to kill all the Jews and never stopped. Which is exactly what the world galati Israel into believing woudln’t happen. That’s why the borders came up and they were always contingent on Palestine stopping the constant rocket attacks etc which they never did.

    And now somehow it’s “ancestral Palestinian land”

    Like you can literally go read the transcripts of Gaddafi laughing at the Arafat and the Palestinians starting up that narrative and telling them nobody would he stupid enough to believe it and yet….

    Here we are….

    People are crazy.

  15. Do you know that? If Hamas wouldn’t attack, Dictator Netanyahu will be facing life time jail because of corruption and bribery in Israel by Israelis judges, courts and laws.
    What a miracle for him, Hamas attacked.

  17. is the remaining 25% going to become the next kowloon walled city or something?

  18. Israel has been saying for well over a year this was not the goal. that the goal was the hostages and destruction of hamas.

    It’s ethnic cleansing. clear and open for the world to see.

  19. I agree what Israel is doing is overboard. They made their point many times over, and now it’s time for peace.

    HOWEVER, this conflict can never come to an end until the Palestinian people accept that “their land” is lost and they need to take what they can get in a 2-state peace deal, and just move on with whatever land they can get and start their own (peaceful) country.

    The world doesn’t function on “this land historically belongs to X people”, otherwise North America should be given back to the native peoples and everyone else should be kicked out. Never gonna happen, so don’t be a hypocrite.

    The majority of the Palestinians still support the destruction of the Israeli state as their goal. Until they give that up, nothing will change.

  20. Sooooo anyone gonna step in once it’s 300% of Gaza?

  23. Can someone remind us all how many people/kids/women and elderly have been killed and kidnapped raped just as in the med evil times.?on October the 07th and what would any other country do in the situation that Israel have been cornered.

  24. In other words, let’s just steal these people‘s land

  25. Need a big buffer zone for the Ben Gurion canal, once that’s built Egypt loses a monopoly on a strategic trade corridor.

  27. They’ll then claim the terrorists must be hiding somewhere in the unclaimed 25% and proceed to bomb the shit out of it.

  28. Ironic how anyone saying that this was Israel’s goal all along would have been labeled as an antisemite just a few months ago. Yet here we are.

  31. That’s rough
    Looks like things are heating up big time. What do you think?
