Israel aims to declare new security zone in northern Gaza: Analyst
Al-Jazeera ^ | October 14, 2023

Posted on 10/14/2023 8:54:31 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Norman Finkelstein, an American author and political scientist, says Israel is aiming to expel Palestinians from the northern sector of Gaza and declare a new security zone there.

He described the Israeli operation in Gaza as “somewhere between a crime against humanity and genocide under international law”, and said the nuclear-armed state’s goal appears to be “to ethnically cleanse the northern sector of Gaza and declare it Israel’s new security zone”.

He added that “the cutting off of water, food and fuel to a civilian population, when keeping in mind Netanyahu’s claim that this situation will go on for a protracted period of time, and if you connect those two facts, no food, no water, no electricity for a protracted period of time, then its hard for anyone to concede that being anything but the crime – under international law – of genocide”.

With a name like Finkelstein I would be hiding under covers in shame - not out making idiotic statements in public.

Genocide is exactly what Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, etc., want to do to Israel. They have been very clear and vocal about their ultimate intentions.

Biden will offer asylum to and transport several hundred thousand Gaza refugees to the U.S., as part of a peace deal.

Sounds like this Finkelstein guy is pissed that Israel obliterated the AP/Al-Jazeera offices in Gaza City the other day.

Would be a smart move by Israel, but I doubt that they go that far. More likely they’ll the level Northern Gaza in order to deal with the tunnel network. If civilians are still there, they won’t be targeted, instead they’ll be ignored, so lots will perish, if Hamas keeps them trapped in the North.

Needless to say Israel will get blasted by the ‘World Community’, but then again, if Israel goes out of its way to avoid harming civilians, they’ll get the same treatment.

If he’s so worried that the denial of electricity, food, and water constitutes “genocide”, then all he needs to do is demand that Egypt allow Gazans to enter Egypt, and provide them with aid there. In fact, let’s ask him what he thinks about that idea…..”Bueller?…Bueller?….Bueller?….”

Hey Finkelstein - ask the Jews that were hiding in a kibbutz while Hamas were performing their pogrom, and they had to listen to Hamas’ glee and laughter while the Jew killing was going on.

What a jerk. Like a dog returning to his vomit, Finkelstein spouts pro-Palanimal propaganda.

Did you forget about the Palanimal children spitting on the corpse of that girl being paraded around on that truck?

There are about 8,000 Muslims in Hawaii.

Norman Finkelstein is just bummed that he missed the Hamas rape-murder party at the Supernova Sukkot Gathering music festival last weekend.

Norman Finkelstein, an American author and political scientist drama queen.

Ethnically cleanse? No. Not Israel, nor any other country, can abide by an immoral and corrupt neighboring tribe that gloats over rape and butchering of its neighbors. The whole society of such a barbaric tribe must be neutered.

Genocide? No. More like "stay off my lawn, you murderous mooches. Use your two feet while you still have them and leave".

Projection by Mr. Finkelstein: ethnic cleansing and genocide is the stated objective of Hamas.
