  1. Things are extremely grim in gaza city, and all of gaza for that matter.

    “Around 400,000 Palestinians have fled famine-stricken Gaza City since Israel launched a major offensive last month aimed at occupying it, but hundreds of thousands remain, many because they cannot afford to leave or are too weak to make the journey to tent camps in the south.

    “This is the last opportunity for Gaza residents who wish to do so to move south and leave Hamas terrorists isolated in Gaza City,” Defense Minister Israel Katz wrote on X. “Those who remain in Gaza will be (considered) terrorists and terror supporters.”

    And

    “Around 90% of Gaza’s population has been displaced in the war, often multiple times, and finding food is a daily struggle for many . On Wednesday, the International Committee of the Red Cross said intensifying warfare in Gaza City forced it to suspend its operations there and relocate staff to southern Gaza.”

  2. Israel needs to be dismantled.

    Like… just holy fuck. I guess I don’t really have anything productive to say bc it all quickly falls apart to just wanting to scream.

    Here’s hoping these war criminals will be held accountable.

    Here’s hoping nations all over the world start detaining IDF “soldiers” who left to go help genocide as they return to their native soil.

    *screams into the void*

  3. That’s a war crime right there.

    And I can certainly say this one is being done with every intent.

    In the first few months after Oct 7th Israel killed 14000 little children under the same policy. We’re they militants? Of course they weren’t. Israel has told everyone to evacuate their apartment blocks, but for whatever reason, thousands didn’t or couldn’t.

    Israel bombed them to the ground with families sti living in them.

    14000 little children died.

    Telling a city to evacuate their own homes into an Israeli made life of danger on the streets, with not enough food and nowhere to store anything, is one thing.

    But killing everyone who won’t or can’t evacuate and treating them all as militants is a war crime.

    We are going to have to put the Israeli economy back to the 3rd world where it’s morality is.

    Shame on Israel forever. They don’t deserve to keep control of their state after this intentional horror.

  4. Yesterday chris sidoti, a member of the UN commission that found israel liable for genocide highlighted how israel is ensuring genocide by forcing gazans to be held in an active warzone.

    “Mass slaughter in Gaza stands apart from other genocides, Chris Sidoti says – ‘People cannot escape’”

  5. Despite this dire situation, it seems that countries are more worried about ensuring the British colonial legacy in the region than stopping a genocide. I cannot believe that people are supporting the initiative to put Tony Blair in charge of Gaza, rather than the Palestinians. Israel just being given gift after gift despite their unnervingly successful attempts to wipe out and ethnically cleanse Gaza is disgustingly sickening. I just cannot wrap my head around how many people still support Israel, even if they are becoming a minority across the world, many governments still back them.

  6. This is the same playbook as to when the US and allied South Korean troops told the citizens of Jeju to evacuate a certain area, or they would be considered Communist insurgents. Thousands of people too poor to leave stayed in their villages or took shelter in caves. The authorities declared the entire island red, and they marched in to villages and systematically wiped those villages and their residents off the map.

  7. When Netanyahu said the other day that world leaders who publicly call this genocide and denounce his actions secretly give him thanks in private, I believe it. You cannot as a head of state or administration believe that this is a genocide and at the same time not actively pursue regime change or real material defense of palestinians. Absolutely tragic to see the support palestinians get be so feckless and performative and so frequently come from places that seem to know they’ll not have to really make good on what they say. Fucking travesty.

  8. Textbook ethnic cleansing. Seems like Israel is moving forward with their last way to resolve their conflict. Something like a final solution. They will never stop until the irredentist and genocidal Greater Israel is established

  9. IDF moving into gaza city, seeing a man attached to an oxygen tank
    the pressured tank could be an explosive, better safe than sorry

    next they see an old woman in a wheelchair
    must be a militant cripple, better safe than sorry

    then they find a 4 year old orphan.
    guess it must be a militant toddler, better safe than sorry

  10. Guys, it’s totally normal to label the entire civilian population of a city as hostile militants so you can kill them indiscriminately and you’re an antisemite if you’re against this genoci- I mean, relocation.

  11. What happens to Gaza city after everyone leaves? Can they come back and rebuild once the “threat” is eliminated? Does it stay a barren wasteland for nobody to live? Does Israel annex it and sell to private development companies to build?

  12. Israel is showing what a barbaric nation it is truly is, every IDF soldier who is involved in any of this should be taken to The Hague along with all of the Israeli government that isn’t fighting back against this

  13. Yeah, all those injured people, seniors, children, and [premature babies in incubators](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/babies-gaza-city-incubators-risk-israeli-assault-intensifies-unicef-says-2025-09-29/?utm_source=reddit.com) are definitely 100% dangerous militant terrorists. Most of them are armed with lethal weapons like walkers, canes, and baby rattles.
    /s

    I normally wouldn’t have to add the /s, but Netanyahu’s supporters are the morons who believe this kind of BS

  14. During the biden admin, I tolerated and tacitly understood the military operation’s need to save the hostages.

    The israeli response at this point in time is extremely disproportionate. Hamas is a problem, but it is effectively dismantled.

    There is no need to create more orphans in Gaza. There is no need to starve the civilian population in gaza.

    If this plan is enacted, it is genocide.

    Mass displacement of people is genocide. Plain and simple.

    There is no reason to disallow aid or transparent reporting unless you want to collectively punish a people and hide th evidence.

  15. The lust for blood, death and murder is just too strong for these fanatic war criminals. They will not stop unless they are forced to. Unforgivable.

    The complicit enablers will be despised forever, the books will perpetuate the memory of their crimes.

  17. Living in that condition would break any human in a matter of days. Trapped inside a concentration camp, tens of thousands of building-busting bombs dropped on you, any single one of them could cause life-long torment from shellshock, hungry, thirsty, no medicine and healthcare…those people have been tormented beyond comprehension, they are all walking dead, empty shells of a human.

    And after two years of that, when there’s no life and energy left in them to move, they are told move or die.

    Fuck those Nazionist orcs.

  18. The IOF let their vicious dogs rip a man with down syndrome apart and left him to bleed to death after forcing his family to leave, later finding his decomposing body in their home after they were able to return.

    They consider all Palestinians regardless of age, physical or mental ability to be militants.

    Coming out and openly stating it doesn’t absolve them of culpability.

    The IOF are baby butcherers, murderers of women and children, a force that enacts and upholds the worst apartheid the world has seen.
