Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”
The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.
The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC

Imagine there are people who want you dead for existing. They tell you to leave but you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you. You don’t have anything and aren’t even able to leave, even if you wanted to. So they come, they kill your family and they kill you.
Now imagine there are people in other parts of the world, they have everything and they didn’t even know you, but they consider it served you right.
This world is fucked up.
They tell you to leave but
you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you.Actively block you from leaving and attack you when you try to leave via “safe routes”.
FTFY
Hey everyone, this guy is a mod who had previously banned pro Palestine comments a few months back. Neat to see you finally changed your mind on the active genocide.
Edit: turns out he has not. Scroll down and see him continue to hold that palastinians do not have a right to defend themselves.
As someone who has friends in Southern Lebanon who have been held at gunpoint by IDF forces and threatened with death, I’m pretty sure you’re confused.
And yet, here you are, banning me for arguing that palestinians have the right to defend themselves from a genocide.
Would you like to recant?
Nope, you got banned for being a terrible troll, another in a long line of ban and comment removals.

You post a modlog made up of you writing “trolling” and count it as self evident proof. I posted my words and yours that resulted in my ban. See the difference? The ego lol.
But hey, I ain’t here to argue it again. I’m just here to remind fellow folk who hold similar anti genocide opinions where exactly you stand and do against those who disagree with you. Using your own words and actions.
That way, people rightly know not to trust you.

Were they israeli friends that mistakenly got confused for Lebanese or Palestinians by the IDF?
Nope, Lebanese doctor who the IDF would raid in the middle of the night, tell him he would be shot if he resisted, hauled him off to treat some random prisoner, then dumped him at the side of the road when they had no more use for him. Happened ALL the time.
This wasn’t during the current illegal occupation of Lebanaon, or even the one before that, it was the one before that.
genocide much?
Can I get a religious war with a side of genocide? Oh, it’s a package deal and I also get free racism? Cool.
the colonial project far supercedes religion here
Yeah, it was European colonialism with a side of antisemitism. Amazing how it turned out.
What many do not know is thar Theodor Herzl and even the first Israeli prime ministers were hardcore atheists. Zionism faced much opposition from religious Jews.
How Israel Went From Atheist Zionism to Jewish State
Zionism as a national movement that rebelled against historical Judaism was mainly atheistic. … Due to the sweeping opposition of the rabbis of Germany, Theodor Herzl was forced to transfer the First Zionist Congress from Munich to the Swiss city of Basel.
But beginning with the first stages in the consolidation and settlement of the Zionist movement, it was forced to meticulously sort and thoroughly nationalize some of the religious beliefs in order to turn them into nation-building myths.
here have some fun
“Israel has sparked global outrage”
YetI have to learn this from a fringe platform, so small it is allowed to report on these things.
There is no ‘global outrage’ , nobody even knows this.
Just as nobody has seen the horrificly malnourished Palestinian hostages .deleted by creator
I didn’t vote for Harris because Trump didn’t do genocide
I wonder where all those people are now. Because they were REALLY active leading up to the election (and shortly after).
I wonder if they realize they were wrong.
EDIT: Oh, they’re here, just had to scroll more.
At a glance, no, they don’t seem to be taking responsibility, and even still seem to be taking the moral high ground.
Which suggests it wasn’t even astroturfing…lol
Don’t you think they’re still in their offices in Russia? I think they might be following the German election
Democrats happily stated they would support this as well. If only they tried being different.
Well good news! You don’t have to deal with Democrats anymore!
Have fun dealing with the Republicans on this now!
Thanks! Trump found out the same thing as Biden yesterday; Egypt and Jordan are not accepting the ethnic cleansing. Trump, like Biden, has walked back the plan.
Same shit. Different Nazi at the helm.
Yup no problem, glad you’re happy with how things turn out! Hope future elections work out for you in the same way! Go team Ned Flanders parents!
Ned Flanders’ parents are essentially the democratic party personified. You’re trying to wash their hands of blame because “Have fun dealing with the Republicans on this now!” but democrats did absolutely nothing to court voters during the election. On the economy, the biggest issue of the election, they lectured people who were struggling to afford necessities with “well ackshully the stock market and GDP” which has nothing to do with the average American’s finances. Even now democrats use “egg prices” as a shorthand to mock people who cannot afford groceries and who might’ve voted republican.
It’s literally “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas” as a platform. All they can do is point at republicans, like you are doing now, and shriek about how bad things are going to get while they allow it to happen. Remember how they shrieked about how bad trump was and how much we have to defeat trump during the 2020 election? They went on and on about how many illegal things trump did and then when they got into office, they put in the milquetoast merrick garland as attorney general who did NOTHING for four years. Now we have trump again.
You can’t just dismiss this as “that’s in the past” because democrats will continue being spineless losers until the end of time because that is their role in this puppet show that the rich put on for us to make us think we have a choice in the matter with this sham of a “democracy”.
keep trying to blame the dems for letting trump into the white house
you campaigned against harris trying to save gaza
you got trump
Man, we’ve had this discussion a time or two already here on lemmy after you’ve jumped in after these guys who make it clear they’re proud of not voting and you never seem to get that one can hold the Democratic party overall as ineffective jackasses and yet still realize that Republicans are worse in every conceivable way and get all upset when you’re both sides everything, acting like Oprah with “you’re a genocider and you’re a genocider”, call everyone a Nazi when only one side is actually doing salute in pubic viewpoints gets shit on. If you’re proud of your vote for Trump or not vote for Harris over the Gaza situation then fine, want to continue to teach Democrats a lesson sure, that’s your prerogative but you also have to deal with the fall out that is reality now.
Also, you can say what you will about Democrats, they suck. Yeah they do. That they’re ineffective. Yeah, I’m tired of Jefferies and Shumer talking about bipartisanship too. But if you actually think that Democrats are no better than MAGA and their polices are no different and you refuse to vote then your opinion holds no weight and you’re not living in any type of reality here, all you have to look at is DOGE, his cabinet members.
You want the Democrats to change then fucking vote in the primaries and back a progressive but when you don’t get your candidate, don’t throw a kiddie tantrum and not vote and spout off both sides nonsense and sit out because your team didn’t win. You’ve have and had people that are fighting for change of the democratic party, and yeah it sure seems slow but progressives such as Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, Lee, Bush, Crockett and Pressley have made it into congress but again, change takes time and it 's been forty years of this so change isn’t happening overnight. If you guys want to keep sitting out because of the sham of a “democracy”, which again thanks to Americans not voting this election we won’t have to deal with “democracy” ever again, then fine but don’t expect change if you do and stop complaining when nothing does change.
And as for reality, you do have to deal with Trump and MAGA now on anything related to the middle east so good luck with that there isn’t a single Democrat or Progressive that’s in charge of that now.
Pointing this little fact out on Reddit is hilarious as people go absolutely bananas.
I say people but they’re likely bots.
Harris and Biden prioritized continuing the genocide over beating Trump. They are to blame for this just as much as Trump
My stance was “Trump is going to make a lot of things worse, including the ongoing genocide in Gaza. You’re either for Trump or against Trump, and if you’re a single issue voter, you’re either voting in favour of, or against, making the genocide worse”.
Some people told me that the Democrats are definitely in favour of the genocide, but who knows what Trump would do! I told them everyone else knows. They told me it’s impossible to know because there was no genocide during Trump’s first term, but there was during Biden’s first term. So Trump is a safer bet for single issue voters.
Regardless, single issue (non-)voters have succeeded in making life much worse for Americans and Palestinians.
We would still be supporting Israel with Biden in place. The only difference is there would be a few “we are very concerned” statements from the White House press secretary instead of Trump’s reality TV show statements. But in the background, the same number of MK84 2,000lb bombs are being transported by the same military vehicles and they blow up on top of the same people.
if you’re a single issue voter, you’re either voting in favour of, or against, making the genocide worse
By what measure is trump making it worse than it was under biden, biden supplied the weapons for a 15 month long genocidal carpet bombing campaign, has trump done something worse than that?
The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and lsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
How is that worse than a genocidal carpet bombing campaign?
In combination with what Trump has said before, and with what Israel has been doing, this isn’t a peaceful eviction. This is Trump pushing for “finishing the job”. Or, “completing the genocide”, to use more straightforward terms.
Serious question. Is leaving an option? Is there some kinda line they can go stand in that will relocate them to another country?
Feels like that scene in Independence Day.
“What is it you want us to do?”
“DIE. DIEEEEEEEE!”
No, the borders to Egypt and Israel are closed. There are limited exceptions for medical treatment in Israel. Egypt let in people with the right paperwork (typically by paying a bribe) at the beginning of the war.
It’s very unusual for people not being able to flee from a warzone. Not giving them the option to leave is against the convention on refugees.
The Israeli navy makes it impossible to leave by boat.
Israel could allow Gazans to flee to the West Bank, but so far haven’t done so. Egypt also isn’t interested in opening the border so far, for fear of the refugees not being able to return at a later date. Egypt is afraid of another terrorist group in its country, especially one that threatens the peace with Israel.
American here, I’d be willing to welcome Palestinians and Israelis into my country.
We have plenty of room for both.
Yeah well, the half that’s in power don’t want immigrants. I doubt Trump is going to welcome them.
Do be fair, neither side wants immigrants.
Both sides just want to enrich the ruling class as much as possible for as little effort as possible.
I was more referring to the masses of people than the political parties. I’d agree that neither party actually represents its constituents anymore. Only money interests.
As a German I’m absolutely horrified by this cruel and inhumane repetition of history.
As a multi-national, multi-ethnic, mutt, I am too.
Given that part of my mutt-makeup is Austrian, I’m offended that Austria and our northern neighbor have greatly contributed to this. Our deserved guilt over the Holocaust blinded us to decade after decade of human rights abuses by Israel.
We’ve seen this coming for a long time and, as a taxpaying contributor to the biggest funder of Israel, I’m ashamed.
*Biden enables genocide
Progressives: that’s fucked up, we should stop supporting Israel
Liberals: ackchually its not a genocide because they only killed a quarter of the population, and you should stay quiet about this because it’ll just help trump win
*Trump enables genocide
Progressives: that’s fucked up, we should stop supporting Israel
Liberals: I told you so, I told you so, I told you so…
Choose between two geriatric evil fuckers. Will you choose the one that pretends to care or the one that promises outright destruction. Destruction it is…
TIL Kamala is a geriatric evil fucker
Was she a presidential contender? The dems won’t allow a progressive
They would rather lose than concede to a populous candidate
Democratic primary when?
Dont accept being given two geriatric fuckers. People jumped to defend Biden when his genocide support and old age were criticised way back in march, april, may when there was plenty of time to push for a decent candidate. and that was already with spouting gaslighting lies that were likely spread by well paid strategy thinktanks.
Then Biden really drove home that he is mentally not fit for the job anymore in the debate with Trump. But also there people were still parroting nonsense like “it was just a bad day” or “he just had a cold”, until the oligarchs behind the DNC put too much pressure.
Then there was the moment to have primaries, own up to the name of the party and actually get a popular candidate. Instead the DNC and oligarchs felt threatened by the possibility and immediately put Harris there and spread the lie that she is the only one thay can take over now, it is too late to change, blablabla.
And people immediately ate the lie and repeated it. The truth is that there was plenty of time to push for a good candidate from the bottom, instead of getting the ghouls pushed from the top. Instead many people let the oligarch koolaid spin their heads, because they rather wanted a genocide than get active in any way. Now they also got Trump as a result.
The solution is to finally get active and overcome the US oligarchy alltogether.
So what did you dorks achieve? Ukrainian genocide and the destruction of the us economy? Good job.
Mask completely off now. It’s good old Ethnic Cleansing time, with our full and enthusiastic support.
8/10 Israelis openly support the ethnic cleaning of Palestinians and Gaza via Trump.
https://www.newarab.com/news/8-10-israelis-support-trumps-gaza-ethnic-cleansing-plan?amp
Following through on this threat would likely result in another Arab-Israeli war.
Not with the US support that Israel has now.
Israel always had US support. The difference now are just words.
Not to worry, Palestinians. Once Israel and the US turn Gaza into a gaudy magaland theme park, I’m sure Trump and friends will welcome you back with open arms. /s
The real evil history of Israel:
Sick ceasefire bro
Isn’t Trump’s whole stance anti immigration/emigration?
He literally said in his plan with Bibi that he wanted to send Palestinians to something like 20 different countries. Ie, he’s not planning to take any here in the US. He’s going to force displace people, spread out the diaspora, and try to take all the profits and suffer no poor consequences.
Good lord. If you’ve ever been to Israel you know what a bunker mentality they have to live with at all times. Can you even imagine going to live in the Gaza Strip after Trump “develops” it and puts condos there?
It’ll be interesting to see how the media companies deny that this is an open admission of genocide.
