"Zionist quotes re racism and Palestinian Genocide", Palestinian Genocide : https://sites.google.com/site/palestiniangenocide/zionist-quotes .
There have been many assertions by leading Zionists promoting ugly Zionist racism, exceptionalism, domination, war criminal might-is-right and an ongoing Palestinian Genocide. These are the kind of in-your-face, racist and genocidal assertions that were commonplace in the imperialist and colonialist 19th century but which are utterly unacceptable today in the genocide-based but politically correct racist (PC racist) Anglosphere countries (UK, US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand). Anglosphere politicians would be finished politically if they came out with the kind of racist and genocidal assertions that are still being made by Israeli politicians but nevertheless Anglosphere politicians overwhelmingly support nuclear terrorist, racist Zionist-run, genocidally racist, democracy-by-genocide Apartheid Israel and hence its ongoing Palestinian Genocide and Apartheid. Indeed in the Zionist-subverted Anglosphere any criticism of genocidal Apartheid Israel risks political damage or political death.
Of course many other countries have ultimately been multiracial successes (e.g. all the Anglosphere countries, namely Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK, the US) but the genocidally racist Zionists have insisted on the racist obscenities of separation, ethnic cleaning , mass incarceration and Apartheid.
The following assertions (non-Jewish Zionists marked with an asterisk, *) are alphabetically listed and referenced, with some previous compilations being very useful in creating this document [1-4].

ADELSON. Sheldon Adelson ( late billionaire mega donor to anti-Palestinian causes and the Republican Party) (2014): “Palestinians are an invented people… The purpose of the existence of Palestinians is to destroy Israel” (Ali Abunimah, “ Smotrich unmasks Israel’s truly genocidal face”, Electronic Intifada, 20 March 2023: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/smotrich-unmasks-israels-truly-genocidal-face ).
ALBRIGHT. Madeleine Albright (Jewish American Zionist, US UN Ambassador , US Secretary of State ) when she defended UN sanctions against Iraq on a US “60 Minutes” segment in which anti-racist Jewish American journalist Lesley Stahl asked her “We have heard that half a million children have died. I mean, that’s more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?” and Albright replied (1996): “We think the price is worth it” ( Lesley Stahl and Madeleine Albright quoted in “Madeleine Albright”, Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madeleine_Albright ).
Ghassan Alian (retired Israeli general) (2023): “[Gazans are] animals” and “You wanted hell, you will get hell” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
APARTHEID ISRAELI DEMONSTRATORS. Apartheid Israeli demonstrators quoted by Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ : “Religious fanatics, waving the Israeli flag, chanting ‘Death to all Arabs’ and ‘Your Second Nakba Is Coming’. Last year a new curse was added, “May Your Village Burn” and, of course, the usual cry repeated over and over, “Kill Them All”.”
ARANNE. Zalman Aranne (Apartheid Israeli Minister without portfolio, 1954-1955, Minister of Transportation, 1955, Minister of Education, 1955-1960, 1963- 1969) about the Indigenous Palestinian demographic “threat” to Apartheid Israel (1967): “The way I know the Jewish people in Israel and the Diaspora, after all the heroism, miracles and wonders, a Jewish state in which there are 40 percent Arabs, is not a Jewish state. It is a fifth column that will destroy the Jewish state. It will be the kiss of death after a generation or a generation and a half… I see the two million Jews before me differently when there will be 1.3 million Arabs - 1.3 million Arabs, with their high birth rate and their permanent pent-up hatred. ... We can overcome 60,000 Arabs, but not 600,000 and not a million” [1].
AYALON. Danny Ayalon (a former Israeli ambassador to the US and Netanyahu confidant) (15 October 2023): “There is almost endless space in the Sinai Desert [for expelled Palestinians] … This is not the first time it has been done… We and the international community will prepare the infrastructure for tent cities. Egypt will have to play ball” (Jonathan Cook: Mounting evidence suggests Israel may be ready to ‘cleanse’ Gaza”, Modern Diplomacy, 7 November 2023: https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2023/11/07/jonathan-cook-mounting-evidence-suggests-israel-may-be-ready-to-cleanse-gaza/ ).
BALFOUR. Arthur Balfour (11 th August 1919): “in Palestine we do not propose even to go through the form of consulting the wishes of the present inhabitants of the country … And Zionism, be it right or wrong, good or bad, is rooted in age-long traditions, in present needs, in future hopes, of far profounder import than the desires and prejudices of the 700,000 Arabs who now inhabit that ancient land” ( Peter Slezak “Justice delayed is justice denied: The case for a Palestinian state”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 September 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/justice-delayed-is-justice-denied-the-case-for-a-palestinian-state/ ).
BARAK. Ehud Barak (Israeli Prime 1999 – 2001) (2000): “The Palestinians are like crocodiles, the more you give them meat, they want more” ([2], [4], Ehud Barak as Israeli Prime Minister, August 28, 2000; reported in the Jerusalem Post August 30, 2000).
Ehud Barak (2000): “If we thought that instead of 200 Palestinian fatalities, 2,000 dead would put an end to the fighting at a stroke, we would use much more force....” ([2], Ehud Barak, Israeli Prime Minister , quoted in Associated Press, November 16, 2000).
Ehud Barak when asked by Gideon Levy what he would have done if he had been born a Palestinian: “I would have joined a terrorist organization” ( [2], [3], Ehud Barak reported by Gideon Levy in the Ha'aretz newspaper responding to the question what he would have done as a Palestinian; also quoted in Zahi Zalloua, “Continental philosophy and the Palestinian Question”, page 62).
BEGIN. Menachem Begin (Israeli Prime Minister, 1977 – 1983) (1947): “The Partition of Palestine is illegal. It will never be recognized .... Jerusalem was and will for ever be our capital. Eretz Israel [Jordan to the Mediterranean or Nile to the Euphrates?] will be restored to the people of Israel. All of it. And for Ever” ([2], Menachem Begin, the day after the U.N. vote to partition Palestine, 1947).
Menachem Begin (1982): “[The Palestinians] are beasts walking on two legs” ([2], [3], [4], Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, speech to the Knesset, quoted in Amnon Kapeliouk, "Begin and the 'Beasts,"' New Statesman, June 25, 1982).
Menachem Begin (1947) reported thus: “One day after the UN Partition vote, Menachem Begin who became Prime Minister from 1977 to 1983 declared that the partition “will never be recognized” and that it “will not bind the Jewish people.” He said the land “will be restored to the people of Israel. All of it. And forever” (Avi Shlaim 2014, The Iron Wall, p. 25)” ( Peter Slezak “Justice delayed is justice denied: The case for a Palestinian state”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 September 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/justice-delayed-is-justice-denied-the-case-for-a-palestinian-state/ ).
BEN-BARAK. Ram Ben-Barak (Anti-Netanyahu “left wing” politician) (2023): “If Gaza is all refugees let’s spread them all over the world. If each country takes in 20,000 individuals that would involve 100 countries” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
BEN GURION. David Ben Gurion (Apartheid Israeli Prime Minister, 1949 - 1954,1955 – 1963) (1937): “We must expel Arabs and take their places” ([2], David Ben Gurion quoted in “Ben Gurion and the Palestine Arabs”, Oxford University Press, 1985)
David Ben Gurion (1948): ”We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation, and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population” ([2], David Ben-Gurion, May 1948, to the General Staff, quoted in “From Ben-Gurion, A Biography” by Michael Ben-Zohar, Delacorte, New York 1978).
David Ben Gurion: “There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?” ([2], David Ben Gurion quoted by Nahum Goldmann in Le Paraddoxe Juif (The Jewish Paradox), pp. 121-122).
David Ben Gurion: “Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist. Not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population” ([2], David Ben Gurion, quoted in “The Jewish Paradox”, by Nahum Goldmann, Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1978, p. 99).
David Ben Gurion (1938): “Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves ... politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves... The country is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down, and in their view we want to take away from them their country” ([2], [3], David Ben Gurion, quoted on pp 91-2 of Chomsky's Fateful Triangle, which appears in Simha Flapan's "Zionism and the Palestinians pp 141-2 citing a 1938 speech).
David Ben Gurion: “If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, and only half by transferring them to the Land of Israel, I would choose the latter, for before us lies not only the numbers of these children but the historical reckoning of the people of Israel”([2], David Ben-Gurion, quoted on pp 855-56 in Shabtai Teveth's “Ben-Gurion” in a slightly different translation).
David Ben Gurion as revealed by Yitzhak Rabin (Israeli Prime Minister 1974 – 1977 and 1992 – 1995) (circa 1948): “We walked outside, Ben-Gurion accompanying us. Allon repeated his question, What is to be done with the Palestinian population?' Ben-Gurion waved his hand in a gesture which said 'Drive them out!" ([2], [3], Yitzhak Rabin, leaked censored version of Rabin memoirs, published in the New York Times, 23 October 1979).
David Ben Gurion: “If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country. Sure God promised it to us, but what does that matter to them? Out God is not theirs. We come from Israel, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There has been antisemitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?” ([2], David Ben Gurion quoted in Zahi Zalloua, “Continental philosophy and the Palestinian Question”, page 62).
David Ben-Gurion (Israeli Prime Minister): “ When a Jew, in America or in South Africa, talks to his Jewish companions about 'our' government, he means the government of Israel” ([3], David Ben-Gurion, Israeli Prime Minister).
David Ben Gurion (1948): "We must do everything to insure they ( the Palestinians) never do return." Assuring his fellow Zionists that Palestinians will never come back to their homes. "The old will die and the young will forget” ([4], David Ben-Gurion, in his diary, 18 July 1948, quoted in Michael Bar Zohar's Ben-Gurion: the Armed Prophet, Prentice-Hall, 1967, p. 157).
David Ben-Gurion (1948): “We should prepare to go over to the offensive. Our aim is to smash Lebanon, Trans-Jordan, and Syria. The weak point is Lebanon, for the Moslem regime is artificial and easy for us to undermine. We shall establish a Christian state there, and then we will smash the Arab Legion, eliminate Trans-Jordan; Syria will fall to us. We then bomb and move on and take Port Said, Alexandria and Sinai” ([4], David Ben-Gurion, May 1948, to the General Staff. From Ben-Gurion, A Biography, by Michael Ben-Zohar, Delacorte, New York 1978.
David Ben Gurion (Apartheid Israel’s first prime minister) (1937): “We must expel the Arabs and take their place and if we have to use force, to guarantee our own right to settle in those places – then we have force at our disposal (quoyed in Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
David Ben Gurion (first PM of Apartheid Israel; May 1948, to the General Staff): “We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation, and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population” , “I don’t need a mandate to rule over Palestine. The bible is my mandate” ( (Michael Ben-Zohar, “Ben-Gurion”, 1978; Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ ).
David Ben-Gurion (1937): “If I were an Arab leader, I would never make terms with Israel. It is natural; we have taken their country. Sure, God promised it to us, but how could that matter to them? Our God is not theirs” (British Peel Commission 1937; Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/).
Ben Gurion, first Prime Minister of Israel: “We shall abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine” and “The Arabs will have to go, but one needs an opportune moment for making it happen, such as a war” (Simha Flapan The Birth of Israel, 1987, p. 22) ( Peter Slezak “Justice delayed is justice denied: The case for a Palestinian state”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 September 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/justice-delayed-is-justice-denied-the-case-for-a-palestinian-state/ ).
BEN GURION & ASSOCIATES’ PLAN DALET (PLAN D). According to Palestinian writer Jafar Ramini (2023): “This [Zionist] call for ethnic cleansing and genocide of the people of Palestine was made official policy in March 10th 1948, when Zionist political and military leaders, including Ben-Gurion, met in Tel Aviv and formally adopted Plan Dalet (or Plan D). It specified which particular Palestinian villages should be targeted and destroyed and it laid out in detail a blueprint for their forcible depopulation and destruction. They went about deploying Plan Dalet with a vicious savagery that resulted in the depopulation and destruction of over 500 Palestinian villages and towns and created 750,000 refugees. This kind of wanton destruction was referred to by General Moshe Dayan, no less, who, when addressing the Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa (as quoted by Haaretz on April 4 1969), said “Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist, not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either… There is not one single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population.” Yet, Prime Minister, Golda Meir, while visiting London in June the same year, was quoted in the press, “It was not as if there was a Palestinian people in Palestine and we came and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not exist.” Sunday Times, June 15th 1969” (Jafar Ramini, “An open call for genocide in Palestine”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 March 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/an-open-call-for-genocide-in-palestine/ ).
Itamar Ben-Gvir as reported in “Itamar Ben-Gvir”, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itamar_Ben-Gvir :
“In 1995, he threatened the then-Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin—who was assassinated two weeks later—saying "we got to his car, and we'll get to him too," after having stolen a car ornament from his Cadillac… In October 13, 2022, in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem, Ben-Gvir took part in the clashes between Israeli Jewish settlers and the local Palestinian residents, brandishing a gun, telling the police to shoot at Palestinians throwing stones at the scene, and yelling at them that "We're the landlords here, remember that, I am your landlord."
BEN YOSEF. Ovadia Ben Yosef (Chief Rabbi Ovadia Ben Yosef, born 1920 in Iraq, died 2013 in Jerusalem): “Goyim were born only to serve us. Without that they have no place in the world. Only to serve the people of Israel” (Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ ).
BUARON. Avichai Buaron (radical right-wing activist, a leader of the movement to maintain the illegal West Bank outpost of Amona, newest member of the Israeli parliament in Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party) in an editorial (2010): “Extermination camps [for Israel’s enemies, Amalekites].
Mondoweiss report (March 2023): “Avichai Buaron is a radical right-wing activist who has been a leader of the movement to maintain the illegal West Bank outpost of Amona, which is illegal even by Israeli law. This week Buaron became the newest member of the Israeli parliament in Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party, replacing lawmaker David Amsalem who resigned his seat to serve in the Justice Ministry. Buaron is notable because, as if his far right-wing advocacy wasn’t enough, in 2010 he published an editorial calling for “extermination camps” for Israel’s enemies. Yes, you read right, extermination camps. The editorial referenced support for extermination camps for “Amalekites,” a common Jewish euphemism. The Amalekites were a people often mentioned in the bible as bitter enemies of the Israelites, where in Deuteronomy the Israelite God commands to “blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.” In contemporary Israel, it is widely understood that “Amalekites” are a reference to Palestinians. With this in mind, we should look at Buaron’s (unsigned) 2010 editorial (reported in Haaretz )… It is also sobering to reflect, that Avichai Buaron is not a member of the furthest right-wing parties like Bezalel Smotrich’s Religious Zionism, or Itamar Ben-Gvir’s Jewish Power – he is a member of Netanyahu’s more mainstream Likud – the largest party by far in Israeli politics. (Jonathan Ophir, “Meet Avichai Buaron, the new Likud lawmaker who advocated for ‘extermination camps’ for Israel’s enemies”, Mondoweiss, 31 March 2023: https://mondoweiss.net/2023/03/meet-avichai-buaron-the-new-likud-lawmaker-who-advocated-for-extermination-camps-for-israels-enemies/ .)
CHAVAN. Zionists from the “asserted Left” Zionists such as Naomi Chavan to the explicitly genocidal Far Right Zionists reject the Right of Return of Indigenous Palestinians expelled in the 1948 Nakba (and their descendants, most of whom are state-less). The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR): “Article 13: 1. Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence within the borders of each State. 2. Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country” (see UDHR: https://www.ohchr.org/en/human-rights/universal-declaration/translations/english ). Report re Naomi Chavan: “Protesters forced a mayoral reception for visiting Israeli MPs to move to a back room at the Auckland Town Hall yesterday… A spokesman for the 30-strong group of Palestinian Human Rights Campaign protesters, David Wakim, said New Zealand should refuse to host Israeli MPs just as it had banned contact in the past with politicians from Fiji and South Africa who had denied democratic rights to ethnic groups … All five MPs, who span the Israeli political spectrum, said there could be no peace agreement in the Middle East until the Palestinians gave up the right of return to Israel for Arab refugees whose families fled to neighbouring countries when the Israeli state was created in 1948. A member of the left-wing Meretz Party and a founder of the Israeli peace movement, Professor Naomi Chavan, said the key stumbling block was the Palestinian demand for the right of 4 million Palestinian refugees to return to their original family lands in Israel. "Full implementation of the Palestinian right of return eventually means the destruction of the state of Israel, and no Israeli Government can accept it" ” ( Simon Collins, “Protest forces backroom meeting with Israeli MPs”, NZ Herald, 27 August 2001: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/protest-forces-backroom-meeting-with-israeli-mps/5HAXOMIVKMJL6C42OWWPSMVCB4/?c_id=601&objectid=211508 ; see also see under UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS, UDHR, CHAVAN and RIGHT OF RETURN in the June 2023 updated “Palestinian Genocide”: https://sites.google.com/site/palestiniangenocide/home ; “2023, 75th Nakba Anniversary: Nakba (Catastrophe) & Palestinian Genocide”: https://sites.google.com/site/palestiniangenocide/1948-nakba-catastrophe-palestinian-genocide , and "Zionist quotes re racism and Palestinian Genocide", Palestinian Genocide : https://sites.google.com/site/palestiniangenocide/zionist-quotes ).
*CHURCHILL. Winston Churchill (UK wartime PM, fervent pro-Zionist and responsible for the Partitionof India, the Partition of Palestine and the "forgotten" 1942-1945 WW2 Bengal Famine in which 6-7 million Indians were deliberatley starved to death by the British with Australian complicity for strategic reasons): "I do not apologize for the takeover of the region by the Jews from the Palestinians in the same way I don't apologize for the takeover of America by the whites from the Red Indians or the takeover of Australia from the blacks [i.e. Australian aborigines]. It is natural for a superior race to dominate an inferior one” (Winston Churchill quoted in “Winston Churchill”, RationalWiki: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Winston_Churchill .)
Winston Churchill quoted by Garikai Gengu: “The same man whose image is polished and placed on British mantelpieces as a symbol of all that is Great about Britain was an unapologetic racist and white supremacist. “I hate Indians, they are a beastly people with a beastly religion”, he once bellowed. As Churchill put it, Palestinians were simply “barbaric hordes who ate little but camel dung.” In 1937, he told the Palestine Royal Commission: “I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place” (Garikai Chengu, “Winston Churchill: Britain’s Greatest Briton Left a Legacy of Global Conflict and Crimes Against Humanity”, Counterpunch 25 April 2016: https://www.counterpunch.org/2016/01/25/winston-churchill-britains-greatest-briton-left-a-legacy-of-global-conflict-and-crimes-against-humanity/ ).
DAYAN. Moshe Dayan (Apartheid Israeli Defense Minister) on occupation and ethnic cleansing the newly acquired Occupied Palestinian Territories (1967): “By allowing these Arabs to seek and find work in foreign countries, there's a greater chance that they'll want to migrate to those countries later” (Jonathan Ophir, “Liberal Israelis were already planning Palestinian Genocide in 1967”; “No soldier will have any interest in interfering in the lives of the inhabitants. I have no interest in the army sitting precisely in Nablus. It can sit on a hill outside Nablus” [1].
Moshe Dayan (1969): “We came here to a country that was populated by Arabs and we are building here a Hebrew, a Jewish state; instead of the Arab villages, Jewish villages were established. You even do not know the names of those villages, and I do not blame you because these villages no longer exist. There is not a single Jewish settlement that was not established in the place of a former Arab Village” ([4], Moshe Dayan, March 19, 1969, speech at the Technion in Haifa, quoted in Ha'aretz, April 4, 1969).
Moshe Dayan (infamous Israeli general): “Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages…There is no one place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population” (Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ ).

EILAND. Giora Eiland (former Israeli national security adviser) (2023): “[Goal to] “create conditions where life in Gaza becomes unsustainable…Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist” (Jonathan Cook: Mounting evidence suggests Israel may be ready to ‘cleanse’ Gaza”, Modern Diplomacy, 7 November 2023: https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2023/11/07/jonathan-cook-mounting-evidence-suggests-israel-may-be-ready-to-cleanse-gaza/ ).
Giora Eiland (retired Israeli Major General) (2023): "No choice … [make Gaza a place ] that is temporarily or permanently impossible to live in" (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
EITAN. Raphael Eitan (Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defence Forces) (1983): “When we have settled the land, all the Arabs will be able to do about it will be to scurry around like drugged cockroaches in a bottle” ([4], Raphael Eitan, Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defence Forces, New York Times, 14 April 1983).
Rafael Eitan (Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces) (1983): “We declare openly that the Arabs have no right to settle on even one centimeter of Eretz Israel... Force is all they do or ever will understand. We shall use the ultimate force until the Palestinians come crawling to us on all fours” ([4], Rafael Eitan, Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces - Gad Becker, Yediot Ahronot 13 April 1983, New York Times 14 April 1983).
Raphael Eitan (1978 – 1983) (former IDF Chief of Staff):“We declare openly that the Arabs have no right to settle on even one centimeter of Eretz Israel….Force is all they do or ever will understand. We shall use the ultimate force until the Palestinians come crawling to us on all fours” quoted in (Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
ELIYAHU. Amichai Eliyahu (Israeli Minister of heritage) (2023): “The north of the Gaza Strip is more beautiful than ever. Blow up and flatten everything. Just a treat for the eyes. We have to talk about the day after. In my mind’s eye, we are giving out lots to all those who fought for Gaza over the years and to those who were evicted from Gush Katif” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).

But that's a type of 'luxury,' an unexpected solution”; "I suggest that we don't come to a vote or a decision today; there's time to deal with this joy, or better put, there's time to deal with this trouble"; “I cannot imagine it - how we will organize life in this country when we have 1.4 million Arabs and we are 2.4 million [Jews], with 400,000 Arabs already in the country?” [1].
Levi Eshkol (war criminal Israeli Prime Minister, 1963-1969) (1967): “We’ll deprive Gaza of water, and the Arabs will leave” ([1], Ofer Aderet, “Israeli Prime Minister; after Six-Day War“: “We’ll deprive Gaza of water, and the Arabs will leave””, Haaretz, 17 November 2017: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-1.823075 ).
FEIGLIN. Moshe Feiglin (Deputy Speaker of the Knesset [the Apartheid Israel parliament) in a letter to Israeli PM Netanyahu detailing a plan for ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip (2014): “… What is required now is that we internalize the fact that Oslo is finished, that this is our country—our country exclusively, including Gaza. There are no two states, and there are no two peoples. There is only one state for one people. Having internalized this, what is needed is a deep and thorough strategic review, in terms of the definition of the enemy, of the operational tasks, of the strategic goals, and of course, of appropriate necessary war ethics.
(1) Defining the enemy: The strategic enemy is extremist Arab Islam in all its varieties, from Iran to Gaza, which seeks to annihilate Israel in its entirety. The immediate enemy is Hamas. (Not the tunnels, not the rockets, but Hamas.)
(2) Defining the tasks: Conquest of the entire Gaza Strip, and annihilation of all fighting forces and their supporters.
(3) Defining the strategic goal: To turn Gaza into Jaffa, a flourishing Israeli city with a minimum number of hostile civilians.
(4) Defining war ethics: “Woe to the evildoer, and woe to his neighbor.”
In light of these four points, Israel must do the following:
a) The IDF shall designate certain open areas on the Sinai border, adjacent to the sea, in which the civilian population will be concentrated, far from the built-up areas that are used for launches and tunneling. In these areas, tent encampments will be established, until relevant emigration destinations are determined. The supply of electricity and water to the formerly populated areas will be disconnected.
b) The formerly populated areas will be shelled with maximum fire power. The entire civilian and military infrastructure of Hamas, its means of communication and of logistics, will be destroyed entirely, down to their foundations.
c) The IDF will divide the Gaza Strip laterally and crosswise, significantly expand the corridors, occupy commanding positions, and exterminate nests of resistance, in the event that any should remain.
d) Israel will start searching for emigration destinations and quotas for the refugees from Gaza. Those who wish to emigrate will be given a generous economic support package, and will arrive at the receiving countries with considerable economic capabilities.
e) Those who insist on staying, if they can be proven to have no affiliation with Hamas, will be required to publicly sign a declaration of loyalty to Israel, and receive a blue ID card similar to that of the Arabs of East Jerusalem.
f) When the fighting will end, Israeli law will be extended to cover the entire Gaza Strip, the people evicted from the Gush Katif will be invited to return to their settlements, and the city of Gaza and its suburbs will be rebuilt as true Israeli touristic and commercial cities… ” (Moshe Feiglin, “letter on the future of Gaza”, 1 August 2014, re-published in Institute for Palestine Studies, 44: http://www.palestine-studies.org/jps/fulltext/186694 ; see also Ali Abunimah, “”Concentrate” and ”exterminate”: Israel parliament deputy speaker’s Gaza genocide plan ”, Electronic Intifada, 3 August 2014: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/concentrate-and-exterminate-israel-parliament-deputy-speakers-gaza-genocide-plan ).
Moshe Feiglin (speaker of the Israeli Knesset and member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud Party) calling for the destruction of Palestinian life in Gaza (August 2014): “[establish] tent encampments...until relevant emigration destinations are determined… [IDF would then] exterminate nests of resistance, in the event that any should remain” (Moshe Feiglin quoted in Center for Constitutional Rights, “The genocide of the Palestinian People: an international law and human rights perspective”, 25 August 2016: https://ccrjustice.org/genocide-palestinian-people-international-law-and-human-rights-perspective ).
Moshe Feiglin (2016): “After the IDF completes the ‘softening’ of the targets with its fire-power, the IDF will conquer the entire Gaza, using all the means necessary to minimize any harm to our soldiers, with no other considerations… Gaza is part of our Land and we will remain there forever. Liberation of parts of our land forever is the only thing that justifies endangering our soldiers in battle to capture land. Subsequent to the elimination of terror from Gaza, it will become part of sovereign Israel and will be populated by Jews. This will also serve to ease the housing crisis in Israel. The coastal train line will be extended, as soon as possible, to reach the entire length of Gaza” (Moshe Feiglin quoted in Center for Constitutional Rights, “The genocide of the Palestinian People: an international law and human rights perspective”, 25 August 2016: https://ccrjustice.org/genocide-palestinian-people-international-law-and-human-rights-perspective ).
GALLANT. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant (Israeli Defense Minister) (2023): “I ordered a full siege on the Gaza Strip. No power, no food, no gas, everything is closed.

GANTZ. Benny Gantz (a former general in a unity government with Netanyahu) re Gaza Genocide (2023): “[Israel has a plan to] change the security and strategic reality in the region” (Jonathan Cook: Mounting evidence suggests Israel may be ready to ‘cleanse’ Gaza”, Modern Diplomacy, 7 November 2023: https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2023/11/07/jonathan-cook-mounting-evidence-suggests-israel-may-be-ready-to-cleanse-gaza/ ).

GOLDSTEIN. Brooke Goldstein (prominent Israel lobby activist in the United States) (2016): “There’s no such thing as a Palestinian person” (Ali Abunimah,“ Smotrich unmasks Israel’s truly genocidal face”, Electronic Intifada, 20 March 2023: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/smotrich-unmasks-israels-truly-genocidal-face ).
GREATER GAZA PLAN. Report by Modern Diplomacy (7 November 2023): “But, in fact, Israel has had just such an ethnic cleansing plan for Gaza on the drawing board, approved by the United States, since at least 2007. That was shortly after Hamas won Palestinian elections and took control of the enclave. After a series of failed, secret diplomatic efforts over the past 16 years to arm-twist Egypt into accepting this so-called “peace plan” – known officially as the Greater Gaza Plan – Israel may be tempted to exploit the current moment to implement a much crueller version of it by force… The Greater Gaza Plan first came to light in 2014, after leaks to Israeli and Egyptian media – apparently part of a pressure campaign on Sisi, then recently installed with US backing. As MEE noted back in 2014, the Greater Gaza Plan envisioned transferring 1,600 sq km of Sinai – five times the size of Gaza – to the Palestinian leadership in the West Bank, headed by Abbas. “The territory in Sinai would become a demilitarised Palestinian state – dubbed ‘Greater Gaza’ – to which returning Palestinian refugees would be assigned… In return, Abbas would have to give up the right to a state in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.” The idea of creating a Palestinian state outside historic Palestine – in either Jordan or Sinai – has a long pedigree in Zionist thinking. “Jordan is Palestine” has been a rallying cry on the Israeli right for decades. There have been parallel suggestions for Sinai.” (Jonathan Cook: Mounting evidence suggests Israel may be ready to ‘cleanse’ Gaza”, Modern Diplomacy, 7 November 2023: https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2023/11/07/jonathan-cook-mounting-evidence-suggests-israel-may-be-ready-to-cleanse-gaza/ ).

Itamar Ben-Gvir (2022): “When we form the government, I will promote the Deportation Law, which will deport anyone who acts against the State of Israel or IDF soldiers. Those who throw stones and Molotov cocktails at soldiers will be deported from here. Those who work against the state, like Ofer Cassif, will be deported. Maybe to Europe.

HEILBRUN. Chairman Heilbrun (of the Committee for the Re-Election of Tel Aviv mayor Shlomo Lahat): “We have to kill all the Palestinians unless they are resigned to live here as slaves” (Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
HERZL. Theodor Herzl (genocidally racist psychopath founder of Zionism) (1895): “We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it employment in our country. The property owners will come over to our side. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discretely and circumspectly” ([1], [4], Theodor Herzl's 1895 diary entry).
Theodor Herzl on Asian “barbarism” (1896): “If His Majesty the Sultan were to give us Palestine, we could in return undertake to regulate the whole finances of Turkey. We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence” (Theodor Herzl, “Der Judenstaat” (“The Jewish State”) 1896, Chapter 2, sub-heading “Palestine or Argentine?”).
Theodor Herzl (1896): “Shall we choose Palestine or Argentine? We shall take what is given us, and what is selected by Jewish public opinion. The Society will determine both these points. Argentine is one of the most fertile countries in the world, extends over a vast area, has a sparse population and a mild climate. The Argentine Republic would derive considerable profit from the cession of a portion of its territory to us. The present infiltration of Jews has certainly produced some discontent, and it would be necessary to enlighten the Republic on the intrinsic difference of our new movement. Palestine is our ever-memorable historic home. The very name of Palestine would attract our people with a force of marvellous potency. If His Majesty the Sultan were to give us Palestine, we could in return undertake to regulate the whole finances of Turkey. We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence. The sanctuaries of Christendom would be safeguarded by assigning to them an extra-territorial status such as is well-known to the law of nations. We should form a guard of honour about these sanctuaries, answering for the fulfilment of this duty with our existence. This guard of honour would be the great symbol of the solution of the Jewish question after eighteen centuries of Jewish suffering.For Europe we shall constitute there [in Palestine] a sector of the wall against Asia, we shall serve as the vanguard of culture against barbarism."
Theodor Herzl, Chapter 2, The Jewish State (Der Judenstaat), sub-heading “Palestine or Argentine?” (1896): http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Zionism/herzl2b.html .
Zionist founder Theodor Herzl (1860 – 1904): “It is essential that the suffering of Jews….becomes worse….this will assist in (the) realization of our plans….I have an excellent idea….I shall induce anti-semites to liquidate Jewish wealth….The anti-semites will assist us thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-semites shall be our best friends” (Theodor Herzl quoted in Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
Theodor Herzl (writing after the first Zionist Congress in Basle, Switzerland in 1897): “At Basle, I founded the Jewish state….If not in five years, then certainly in fifty everyone will realize it” (Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
ISRAEL DEFENCE FORCE (IDF). As just one example, report on genocide threat from IDF general Ghassan Alian (2023): “Israel’s bombardment of the Gaza Strip entered its fourth day as the death toll inside Gaza surpassed 770, with more than 4,000 injuries as a result of airstrikes. Among the dead are at least 140 children, according to Palestinian health sources… COGAT head Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian issues genocidal threat to Palestinians: “Human animals must be treated as such. There will be no electricity and no water [in Gaza], there will only be destruction. You wanted hell, you will get hell” … National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir announces plans to arm Jewish “civilian security teams” in the West Bank, Jerusalem, and Palestinian areas in ‘48”… Israel bombs Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt for second time, after army spokesperson tells Gazans to flee to Egypt. Israeli army spokesperson says, “our focus is on (creating) damage, not on precision” in Gaza attack. Gaza Health Ministry: 13 Palestinian families have been massacred since Saturday; most “still under the rubble”. UN: At least 200,000 Gazans have been internally displaced due to Israeli airstrikes. Hamas and Islamic Jihad claim to be holding 130 Israeli captives in Gaza. 124 Israeli soldiers, 41 police officers among dead in Israel. Israel claims to have killed 1,500 Palestinian fighters inside Israeli territory. Gaza hospitals overwhelmed; WHO calls for humanitarian corridor into Gaza to deliver medical aid” Mondoweiss Palestine Bureau, “‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 4: ‘You wanted hell, you will get hell,’ Israeli army chief says, calling Palestinians ‘human animals’”, Mondoweiss, 10 October 2023: https://mondoweiss.net/2023/10/operation-al-aqsa-flood-day-4-you-wanted-hell-you-will-get-hell-israeli-army-chief-says-calling-palestinians-human-animals/ .
ISRAELI CHILDREN. Israeli children found by Israeli psychologist George Tamarin to overwhelmingly support Biblical Israelite genocide of Canaanites as reported by Professor Richard Dawkins in his book “The God Delusion” (2006): “Tamarin presented to more than a thousand Israeli school children, aged between eight and fourteen , the account of the battle of Jericho in the book of Joshua [which states] Then they utterly destroyed all in the city, both men and women, young and old, oxen, sheep, and asses, with the edge of the sword … Tamarin then asked the children a simple moral question: “Do you think Joshua and the Israelites acted rightly or not? They had to choose between A (total approval), B (partial approval) and C (total disapproval). The results were polarized: 66 per cent gave total approval, and 26 per cent total disapproval, with rather fewer (8 per cent) in the middle with partial approval … Tamarin ran a fascinating control group in his experiment. A different group of 168 Israeli children were given the same text from the book of Joshua, but with Joshua's name replaced by “General Lin” and “ Israel ” replaced by “a Chinese kingdom 3,000 years ago”. Now the experiment gave opposite results. Only 7 per cent approved of General Lin's behaviour, and 75 per cent disapproved… It was religion that made the difference between children condemning genocide and condoning it” (Richard Dawkins, “The God Delusion”, 2006, pages 253-257; Gideon Polya, “Horrendous Pro-Zionist, Zionist And Apartheid Israeli Child Abuse Exposed”, Countercurrents, 21 April, 2014: http://www.countercurrents.org/polya210414.htm ).
ISRAELI PRO-GENOCIDE DEMONSTRATORS. Israeli demonstrators supporting an IDF soldier who executed a wounded Palestinian demanded mass killing of Palestinians as reported thus (2016): “A photo posted by Arab-Israeli lawmaker Ahmed Tibi showed a demonstrator holding a banner displaying the words “Kill them all,” at the rally, which drew a crowd of around 2,000 people. Dan Cohen, an independent US journalist on the ground, reported that the crowd was chanting “death to Arabs”” (““Kill them all”: social media uproar over “anti-Arab” Israeli rally”, Al Arabiya, 20 April 2016: http://english.alarabiya.net/en/media/digital/2016/04/20/-Kill-them-all-Social-media-uproar-over-Anti-Arab-Israeli-rally.html ).
Apartheid Israeli demonstrators quoted by Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ : “Religious fanatics, waving the Israeli flag, chanting ‘Death to all Arabs’ and ‘Your Second Nakba Is Coming’. Last year a new curse was added, “May Your Village Burn” and, of course, the usual cry repeated over and over, “Kill Them All”.”
JABOTINSKY. Vladimir Jabotinsky (leading pre-WW2 Zionist) (1935): “ There is only one power which really counts. The power of political pressure. We Jews are the most powerful people on earth, because we have this power, and we know how to apply it” ([3], Vladimir Jabotinsky quoted in the Jewish Daily Bulletin, July 27, 1935).
Ze’ev Jabotinsky (hard line Zionist revisionist leader) arguing for Palestinian Genocide (1923): “[Jews must build] an iron wall of (superior) Jewish military force” (Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
JEWISH ISRAELI DEMONSTRATOR placard at an anti-Palestinian Tel Aviv rally (2016): “KILL THEM ALL” (Whitney Webb, “Thousands of Israelis take to the streets calling for Palestinian genocide”, MPN News, 6 October 2016: https://www.mintpressnews.com/thousands-israelis-take-streets-calling-palestinian-genocide/221168/ .
KAHANE. Rabbi Meir Kahane (US-born ultra-extremist Zionist Israeli rabbi ) (1983): “Surely it is time for Jews, worried over the huge growth of Arabs in Israel, to consider finishing the exchange of populations that began 35 years ago” (Meir Kahane quotes, Brainy Quote: https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/meir_kahane_268192 ).
Meir Kahane (far-right, anti-Arab anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish anti-Semitic and genocidally racist Jewish Israeli Zionist rabbi) quoted in “Meir Kahane quotes”, Quote Park: https://quotepark.com/authors/meir-kahane/ :
“I say the Arabs must leave Israel, precisely because I believe if the Arabs stay, they'll become the 'good Arabs' as I understand the term.”
“I prefer a powerful and proud Jewish State that is hated by the entire world than an Auschwitz that is loved by one and all.”
“The poor Palestinians who today kill Jews with explosives and firebombs and stones are part of the same people who when they had all the territories they now demand be given to them for their state -attempted to drive the Jewish state into the sea.”
“There is no greater anti-Semite that the Jewish one, and none hates the Jewish people more than the Jewish traitor and apostate.”
“The question is as follows: if the Arabs settle among us and make enough children to become a majority, will Israel continue to be a Jewish state? Do we have to accept that the Arab majority will decide? Obviously, nobody in Israel can accept this. Because to accept this would amount to being anti-Zionist!”
“Every Arab is a proud Arab, a good nationalist. And because of this, he is opposed to the existence of the state of Israel.”
“Western democracy has to be ruled out. For me that’s cut and dried: there’s no question of setting up democracy in Israel, because democracy means equal rights for all, irrespective of racial or religious origins. Therefore democracy and Zionism cannot go together. And Israel’s Declaration of Independence, which proclaimed this state to be a Jewish state, is a totally schizophrenic document. You just can’t, on the one hand, want a Jewish state and at the same time give non-Jews the right to become a majority.”
KALLNER. Ariel Kallner (Likud Israeli Member of the Knesset ) on Saturday 7 October 2023 called for a second Nakba [Catastrophe] to take place in Gaza as Israel intensifies its bombardment of the besieged territories following an ongoing Hamas operation in Israeli settlements (2023): “Right now, one goal: Nakba! A Nakba that will overshadow the Nakba of 48. Nakba in Gaza and Nakba to anyone who dares to join! their Nakba, because like then in 1948, the alternative is clear…Turn off the enemy now! This day is our Pearl Harbor. We will still learn the lessons. Right now, one goal: Nakba!” [800,000 Indigneous Palestinians or 57% of the Indigneous Palestinian popuation were violently expelled in the 1948 Naba or Catastrophe associated with 76 massacres, 15,000 deaths, 530 villages emptied and eventualy 120 mosques destroyed].
KASHTIEL.Rabbi Eliezer Kashtiel (head of the pre-military academy of Eli, an illegal settlement in the West Bank, to school children): “Jews are the masters, Arabs are the slaves, this is not by chance, this is biology and genetics. They are happy to be slaves, they want to be slaves. Arabs want to live under occupation, because they can’t run a country or do anything, look at them, look what they look like” (Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/).

Israel Katz (Israeli Energy Minister) (2023): “No electrical switch will be turned on, no water pump will be opened and no fuel truck will enter until the Israeli abductees are returned home” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
KNESSET. The Israeli Knesset is a fake parliament in a fake Zionist democracy-by-genocide in which of the 7.5 million Indigenous Palestinian (who are 50% of the Subjects of Apartheid Israel, Jews being 47%) 73% (the 5.5 million Occupied Palestinians) are excluded from voting for the government ruling them (i.e. egregious Apartheid). The 2 million Israeli Palestinians can vote albeit as Third Class citizens under 60 Nazi-style discriminatory laws. In February 2023 the Israeli parliament approved the first stage of legislation for the death penalty for any Palestinian who commits a crime against the State of Israel. According to Palestinian journalist Jafar Ramini (2023): “To add even more wood to the fire, the Israeli Knesset (parliament) just approved this week the first reading of a bill that calls for the death penalty for any Palestinian who kills an Israeli citizen. Or commits a crime against the state of Israel.In the land of Israel, self determination is an exclusively Jewish privilege. While the death penalty is exclusive to the Palestinians under its occupation.” (Jafar Ramini, “An open call for genocide in Palestine”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 March 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/an-open-call-for-genocide-in-palestine/ ).
KOENIG. . Israel Koenig (author of “The Koenig Memorandum that called for the Judaization of the Galilee in 1977) (1977): “We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation, and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population” ([4], Israel Koenig, "The Koenig Memorandum”).
The secret Koenig Report (later published in 1976): “We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population” (quoted in Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
LEIBLER. Mark Leibler: “Mark Leibler” on X, 8 February 2025, https://x.com/LeiblerMark/status/1888198921069232537?mx=2 : “Nothing, but nothing, is worse than those Jews who level totally unfounded allegations of genocide and ethnic cleansing against the State of Israel. They are repulsive and revolting human beings. Their relatives who were murdered by the Nazis - the role models for Hamas - will undoubtedly be turning in their graves. Their avowed anti Zionism is clearly no more than a cover for the reality that they are vicious antisemites.”

LIEBERMAN. Avigdor Lieberman (Israeli Foreign Minister) re getting rid of Palestinian Israelis (2015): “Anyone who’s with us should be given everything – up to half the kingdom. Anyone who’s against us, there’s nothing to do – we should raise an axe and cut off his head; otherwise we won’t survive here” (Ali Abunimah, “Israeli foreign minister calls for beheading Palestinians”, Electronic Intifada, 9 March 2015: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/israeli-foreign-minister-calls-beheading-palestinians .; quoted by Israeli Mako news website re an interview with journalist Udi Segal during the “Electing Democracy in 2015” conference at IDC Herzliya, an Israeli college).
Avigdor Lieberman re expelling a northern Israeli Palestinian town (2015): “There’s no reason for Umm al-Fahim to be part of the State of Israel. Citizens in the State of Israel who fly a black flag on Nakba Day – as far as I’m concerned they should go away, and I’ll donate them to Abu Mazen with great joy” (Ali Abunimah, “Israeli foreign minister calls for beheading Palestinians”, Electronic Intifada, 9 March 2015: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/israeli-foreign-minister-calls-beheading-palestinians .; quoted by Israeli Mako news website re an interview with journalist Udi Segal during the “Electing Democracy in 2015” conference at IDC Herzliya, an Israeli college).

HERZOG. Isaac Herzog (Israeli President) (2023): “It’s an entire nation that is out there that’s responsible. It’s not true, this rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up, they could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup d'etat” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
MEIR. Golda Meir (Israeli Prime Minister 1969 – 1974) (1961): “Any one who speaks in favor of bringing the Arab refugees back must also say how he expects to take the responsibility for it, if he is interested in the state of Israel. It is better that things are stated clearly and plainly: We shall not let this happen”([2], Golda Meir, 1961, in a speech to the Knesset, reported in Ner, October 1961).
Golda Meir (1969): “There is no such thing as a Palestinian people... It is not as if we came and threw them out and took their country. They didn't exist” ([2], [3], [4], Golda Meir, statement to The Sunday Times, 15 June, 1969).
Golda Meir (1969): “How can we return the occupied territories? There is nobody to return them to” ([2], [4], Golda Meir, March 8, 1969).
Golda Meir (1971): “This country exists as the fulfillment of a promise made by God Himself. It would be ridiculous to ask it to account for its legitimacy” ([2], Golda Meir, Le Monde, 15 October 1971).
Golda Meir (1975): “Let me at this juncture deal also – even if very briefly- with the ridiculous accusation that I have heard for so many years to the effect that we ignored the Arabs of Palestine and set about developing the country as though it had no Arab population at all. When the instigators of the Arab disturbances of the late 1930s claimed, as they did, that the Arabs were attacking us because they had been “disposed”, I did not have to look up British census figures to know that the Arab population of Palestine had doubled since the start of Jewish settlements there. I had seen for myself the rate of growth of the Arab population ever since I had first come to Palestine. Not only did the living standard of the Arabs of Palestine far exceed that of the Arabs anywhere else in the Middle east, but attracted by the new opportunities, hordes of Arabs were emigrating to Palestine from Syria and other neighbouring countries all through those years” (Golda Meir, “My Life”, Putnam, New York, 1975, page 149).
Golda Meir on a conversation with President Richard Nixon in 1969 (1975): “We also talked about the Palestinians and I spoke my mind as openly on that topic as I did on others. “Between the Mediterranean and the borders of Iraq,” I said, “in what was once Palestine [for about 3,000 years], there are now two countries , one Jewish and one Arab, and there is no room for a third. The Palestinians must find the solution to their problem together with that Arab country, Jordan, because a “Palestinian state” between us and the Jordan can only become a base to from which it will be even more convenient to attack and destroy Israel”” (Golda Meir, “My Life”, Putnam, New York, 1975, page 390).
MORRIS. Benny Morris (leftist Israeli historian) predicting more Israeli ethnic cleansing of Palestinians (2004): “But I am ready to tell you that in other circumstances, apocalyptic ones, which are liable to be realized in five or ten years, I can see expulsions” [1].
Benny Morris (professor of history in the Middle East Studies department of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Beersheba, Israel) on the Palestinian Genocide (2004): "The great American democracy could not have been achieved without the extermination of the Indians. There are cases in which the general and final good justifies difficult and cruel deeds that are carried out in the course of history" (Benny Morris quoted by Adi Ophir, “Genocide hides behind expulsion”, Israel-Academia Monitor 16 January 2004: http://israel-academia-monitor.com/index.php?type=large_advic&advice_id=7837&page_data[id]=174&cookie_lang=en&the_session_id=328489ff3cfe4f43aeabf42bbb2578ea&BLUEWEBSESSIONSID=d24426fdabf3cc892db7c77796b42a8d ; Adi Ophir, “Genocide hides behind expulsion”, Counterpunch, 16 January 2004: https://www.counterpunch.org/2004/01/16/genocide-hides-behind-expulsion/ ).
Benny Morris on expulsion of Palestinians (genocide) (2004): “Even the great American democracy could not have been created without the annihilation of the Indians. There are cases in which the overall, final good justifies harsh and cruel acts that are committed in the course of history.” I do not know today any American historian or social scientist that agrees that the annihilation of the indigenous population of the continent was a necessary condition for the American nation or the constitution of American democracy. And these are facts and not “political correctness” and “ “If you are asking me whether I support the transfer and expulsion of the Arabs from the West Bank, Gaza and perhaps even from Galilee and the Triangle [Israel], I say not at this moment. I am not willing to be a partner to that act. In the present circumstances, it is neither moral nor realistic. The world would not allow it, the Arab world would not allow it, it would destroy the Jewish society from within. But I am ready to tell you that under other circumstances, apocalyptic ones, which are liable to be realized in five or ten years, I can see expulsions. If we find ourselves with atomic weapons around us, or if there is a general Arab attack on us and a situation of warfare on the front with Arabs in the rear shooting at convoys on their way to the front, acts of expulsion will be entirely reasonable. They may even be essential” (Benny Morris quoted in Baruch Kimmerling, “Benny Morris’s Shocking Interview”, The Electronic Intifada, 27 January 2004: https://electronicintifada.net/content/top-israeli-historian-analyzes-benny-morriss-shocking-interview/4968 ).
Benny Morris (Israeli historian) interviewed by Haaretz (2004): “Ben-Gurion was a transferist, He understood that there could be no Jewish state with a large and hostile Arab minority in its midst. There would be no such state. It would not be able to exist… Ben-Gurion was right. If he had not done what he did, a state would not have come into being. That has to be clear. It is impossible to evade it. Without the uprooting of the Palestinians, a Jewish state would not have arisen here. If he [Ben-Gurion] was already engaged in expulsion, maybe he should have done a complete job. I know that this stuns the Arabs and the liberals and the politically correct types. But my feeling is that this place would be quieter and know less suffering if the matter had been resolved once and for all. If Ben-Gurion had carried out a large expulsion and cleansed the whole country – the whole Land of Israel, as far as the Jordan River. It may yet turn out that this was his fatal mistake. If he had carried out a full expulsion – rather than a partial one – he would have stabilized the State of Israel for generations” (Ali Abunimah, “ Smotrich unmasks Israel’s truly genocidal face”, Electronic Intifada, 20 March 2023: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/smotrich-unmasks-israels-truly-genocidal-face ).
NAHSHON. Emmanuel Nahshon (Deputy Director General for Public Diplomacy at Israel’s Foreign Ministry) (2023): “This war is not only against Hamas. Any scenario other than a complete and unequivocal defeat of the enemy, at any cost, condemns us and our descendants to a bleak future. If we do not convey our message to our foes now, they will continue to hurt us” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
NETANYAHU. Benjamin Netanyahu (Israeli Prime Minister 1996 – 1999 and 2009-present) (1989): “Israel should have exploited the repression of the demonstrations in China, when world attention focused on that country, to carry out mass expulsions among the Arabs of the territories” ([2], [3], Benyamin Netanyahu, then Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister, speaking to students at Bar Ilan University, from the Israeli journal Hotam, November 24, 1989).
Benjamin Netanyahu interviewed on the Nakba (Philip Weiss, Palestinians ‘weren’t there at all’– Netanyahu tells credulous Jordan Peterson”, Mondoweiss, 14 December 2022: https://mondoweiss.net/2022/12/palestinians-werent-there-at-all-netanyahu-tells-credulous-jordan-peterson/ .)
“Seventy five years ago when the state of Israel was declared, you did not have a single Arab refugee…. In fact the refugees are the result of Arab aggression and not its cause. … The Palestinian refugees… fled in advance of the advancing armies [from five Arab countries] being promised that they could return in a few days, the Jews would be annihilated and driven into the sea, that didn’t work out, thank god….
“The Arabs who had conquered the land [in the 600s] basically left it barren. They never made it their own. It was a barren land. Practically it was an empty land…. The Jews came back in the 19th century to the land of Israel. The result of this return was that we started building farms, factories, places of employment. Arabs from nearby countries started emigrating. And they now became– they call themselves Palestinians. They reconstructed history, they said we’ve been here for centuries. No they haven’t. They weren’t there at all, and they didn’t have a national consciousness….
“It’s not your land, it’s been our land for 3500 years. If you took over somebody’s apartment, kicked them out, dispossessed them, and they never gave up their claim… and you left this barren dump, OK? And the families, the progeny of the people you kicked out came back, rebuilt the house… you cannot come back and tell them, you don’t belong here, we’re going to kick them out.
“Especially since your latecomers who have come to live in part of the house, which is what so-called Palestinians are. We say to them you can live here, we can live here, but it’s our land, its our state…
“If any people has any right to a state, if any people never gave up their dreams… If any people rebuilt their home from nothing, from barren, wasted land, it’s the Jewish people. To tell them, you who have suffered more than anyone else… you have no right to be there, but the Arabs who are trying to destroy you, they have a right, That is a complete perversion of history…
“The Jews belong to this land, this land belongs to the Jews, the Palestinians are free to live here next to us, among us, but they are not free to demand the dissolution of the Jewish state…
“We came back to this land to this land that was laid barren by the Arab conquest, brought it back to life, and allowed Arab immigration, what we call now Palestinian immigration, to come back in…
“They did nothing with the land. They built one town. Ramle. That’s it. Hundreds of new sites that we built…. The Arabs did nothing with it… We perform this miracle… it was desert, it was nothing.”
“They took over my apartment a long time ago…The apartment was left barren and many decades– in this case, centuries later, I come back to this barren mess, this ruin, and I build it up back, I not only improve it, I make my ownership based on improvement, but that nobody else did anything with it. There was no someone else! There practically were no tenants, that’s my argument… “
Benjamin Netanyahu on Hamas and Amalek (2023): “They are committed to completely eliminating this evil from the world. You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember” (Noah Lanard, The Dangerous History Behind Netanyahu’s Amalek Rhetoric. His recent biblical reference has long been used by the Israeli far right to justify killing Palestinians”, Mother Jones, 3 November 2023: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/11/benjamin-netanyahu-amalek-israel-palestine-gaza-saul-samuel-old-testament/ .)
Comment: God commands King Saul in the first Book of Samuel (see Old Testament below) to kill every person in Amalek, a rival nation to ancient Israel. “This is what the Lord Almighty says,” the prophet Samuel tells Saul. “‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys”.
Benjamin Netanyahu (2023): “We will openly reoccupy and embed ourselves in Gaza because Arabs are incapable of governing themselves” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
Benjamin Netanyahu on Donald Trump’s plan for ethnic cleansing of Gaza (2025): “For a full year, we have been told that on the 'day after', the PLO [Palestine Liberation Organisation], the Palestinian Authority, needs to be in the Strip… President Trump came with a completely different vision, much better for the State of Israel, a revolutionary and creative vision, which we are discussing. He is very determined to carry it out. This also opens many possibilities before us" ( David Gritten, “Trump says no right of return for Palestinians under Gaza plan”, BBC News, 11 February 2025: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn57neepx4vo ).
OLD TESTAMENT. Old Testament of the Holy Bible (core of the Torah of Judaism and of Abrahamic religions) promulgates racial superiority and genocide in the multi-ethnic “Promised Land” by the “Chosen People” (written circa 600-400 BCE).
Old Testament (KJV) relating to Noah and the extermination of Humanity (Genesis, chapters 6 and 7): “6. 5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. 9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. 10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. 11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. 13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch… 7. 20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: 22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. 23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. 24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the genocidal collective punishment of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis , chapter 19): “1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground… 4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: 5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them… 10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door. 11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door. 12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it… 15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed… 24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven; 25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the gendercide of the Hivites by Jacob’s sons (Genesis, chapter 34 ): “And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.3 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel. 4 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife… 20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,21 These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters. 22 Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised. 23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of their's be our's? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us. 24 And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city. 25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males. 26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out. 27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister. 28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field, 29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the killing the firstborn of Egypt “to put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel” (Exodus, chapter 11): “ 4 And Moses said, Thus saith the Lord, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: 5 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the first born of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts. 6 And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more. 7 But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.”
Old Testament: The King James version (KJV), Exodus, chapter 15: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%2015&version=KJV :
Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the LORD, saying,
“I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea…
9 The enemy [Egypt] said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters [no non-Biblical evidence] .
11 “Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 “Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan [Palestine] shall melt away.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Lord, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.”
Old Testament Holy Bible, (KJV) – Exodus 17:14: 11.And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. 12But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. 13And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. 14And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. 15And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi: 16For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation” (see: KJV: https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Exodus-17-14/ )
Old Testament Holy Bible, (KJV) – Exodus 32: 1-35: “1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
9 And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
35 And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.”
Old Testament (KJV) advocating Canaanite Genocide (Palestinian Genocide) by the “Chosen People” in Deuteronomy chapter 7: “1 When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou; 2 And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them: 3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son. 4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly. 5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire. For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth” ([“The Holy Bible”, King James version, Deuteronomy, chapter 7; Gideon Polya, “Review: “The Secret Chord” By Geraldine Brooks.

THE OLD TESTAMENT. The Old Testament, Deuteronomy 11:21-28: 21That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth. 22For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him; 23Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves. 24Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be. 25There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you. 26Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; 27A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day: 28 and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way I command you this day, to go after other gods which you have not known”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the promise of the established agrarian land of other peoples (Deuteronomy, chapter 27): “Now Moses, with the elders of Israel, commanded the people, saying: “Keep all the commandments which I command you today. 2 And it shall be, on the day when you cross over the Jordan to the land which the Lord your God is giving you, that you shall set up for yourselves large stones, and whitewash them with lime. 3 You shall write on them all the words of this law, when you have crossed over, that you may enter the land which the Lord your God is giving you, ‘a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the Lord God of your fathers promised you.1 .
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the Canaanite Genocide (Joshua, chapter 23): “3 You have seen all that the Lord your God has done to all these nations because of you, for the Lord your God is He who has fought for you. 4 See, I have divided to you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from the Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, as far as the Great Sea westward. 5 And the Lord your God will expel them from before you and drive them out of your sight. So you shall possess their land, as the Lord your God promised you.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to Joshua’s Jericho Genocide (Joshua, Chapter 6): “2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.3 And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days… 16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city. 17 And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the Lord: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent… 21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword… 27 So the Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the punishment of Saul for failing to completely destroy the Amalekites and Kenites (1 Samuel, chapter 15): “1 Samuel also said to Saul, “The Lord sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. Now therefore, heed the voice of the words of the Lord. 2 Thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he ambushed him on the way when he came up from Egypt. 3 Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’” 4 So Saul gathered the people together and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand men of Judah. 5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and lay in wait in the valley. 6 Then Saul said to the Kenites, “Go, depart, get down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them. For you showed kindness to all the children of Israel when they came up out of Egypt.” So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites. 7 And Saul attacked the Amalekites, from Havilah all the way to Shur, which is east of Egypt. 8 He also took Agag king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword. 9 But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the fatlings, the lambs, and all that was good, and were unwilling to utterly destroy them. But everything despised and worthless, that they utterly destroyed… 24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice. 25 Now therefore, please pardon my sin, and return with me, that I may worship the Lord.” 26 But Samuel said to Saul, “I will not return with you, for you have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you from being king over Israel.”27 And as Samuel turned around to go away, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore. 28 So Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you. 29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor relent. For He is not a man, that He should relent.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating to the genocide of the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites (1 Samuel, chapter 27) : “8 And David and his men went up and raided the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites. For those nations were the inhabitants of the land from of old, as you go to Shur, even as far as the land of Egypt. 9 Whenever David attacked the land, he left neither man nor woman alive, but took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achish. 10 Then Achish would say, “Where have you made a raid today?” And David would say, “Against the southern area of Judah, or against the southern area of the Jerahmeelites, or against the southern area of the Kenites.” 11 David would save neither man nor woman alive, to bring news to Gath, saying, “Lest they should inform on us, saying, ‘Thus David did.’” And thus was his behavior all the time he dwelt in the country of the Philistines. 12 So Achish believed David, saying, “He has made his people Israel utterly abhor him; therefore he will be my servant forever.”
Old Testament (KJV) relating the capture and ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem by King David in Book 2 of Samuel, chapter 5: “6. And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: which spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither: thinking, David cannot come in hither. 7. Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David. 8. And David said on that day, Whosoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul, he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house. 9. So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward. 10. And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him” (The Old Testament, Book 2 of Samuel, Chapter 5 ). John Wesley has interpreted “The blind and the lame shall not come into the house” to mean “That is, whence it became a proverb, or a common saying, used by David, and others, the blind and the lame Jebusites, were set to keep the house, that is, the fort of Zion; and to keep others from coming into it; but now they are shut out of it, and none of them, either of the Jebusites, or of blind and lame persons, shall be admitted to come into it again. Which David might ordain, to keep up the memory of this great exploit, and of the insolent carriage of the Jebusites” i.e. genocide of the Jebusites that mirrors the exclusion of 6 million Palestinians today from entering Palestine and exclusion by the Apartheid Wall, the Gaza Concentration Camp, razor wire and road blocks of most of the now majority 6.8 million Indigenous Palestinian subjects of Apartheid Israel from actually or readily entering Jerusalem (John Wesley, commentary on “The blind and the lame shall not come into the house”: http://www.christianity.com/bible/commentary.php?b=10&c=5&com=wes ).
PELED. Matityahu Peled (Israeli General) (1972): “The thesis that the danger of genocide was hanging over us in June 1967 and that Israel was fighting for its physical existence is only bluff, which was born and developed after the war” ([4], Matityahu Peled quoted in Ha'aretz, 19 March 1972).
PERES. Shimon Peres (Nobel Peace Laureate (1), Israeli President 2007 – 2014, and twice Prime Minister as well as Interim Prime Minister in the 1970s to the 1990s) successfully evaded the prohibition of French sales of uranium to Israel under international agreements by proposing: “Don’t sell it to us, lend it to us. We will return it to you after our mission is completed” (quoted in Gideon Polya, “Apartheid Israel buries serial war criminal, genocidal racist and nuclear terrorist Shimon Peres”, Countercurrents, 1 October 2016: http://www.countercurrents.org/2016/10/01/apartheid-israel-buries-serial-war-criminal-genocidal-racist-and-nuclear-terrorist-shimon-peres/ ; Richard Silverstein, “How Shimon Peres stole the nuclear bomb with a bluff, and why military censor does not want Israelis to know about it”, Global Research, 23 September 2016: http://www.globalresearch.ca/how-shimon-peres-stole-the-nuclear-bomb-with-a-bluff-and-why-military-censor-doesnt-want-israelis-to-know-about-it/5547367 ).
PERRIN. Rabbi Yaacov Perrin (1920): “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail” ([4], Rabbi Yaacov Perrin, 27 February 1994 quoted in the New York Times, 28 February , 1994, page 1).
PICKERING. Tom Pickering (a former US Ambassador to Apartheid Israel and the UN) adumbrating total genocide by expulsion of Occupied Palestinians when asked by the Australian ABC interviewer about the future of Palestine-Israel and the 2-state solution (2021): “The Palestinians who clearly suffered a 20 to 1 death rate and who clearly are vastly overwhelmed by the Israelis in terms of military power… I think it is an extremely high mountain to cross… It doesn’t appear there is a 1 state solution to this problem and there is no multiple state outcome to this problem… Israel for a very long period of time under Netanyahu has kind of narrowed down the goal for the Palestinians to something like 20% of what is currently believed to have been the Palestinian state under the 2 state solution [i.e. to 4.4% of Palestine] … And if in fact there is no agreement and the status quo is continued with interruptions for violence as we have seen, it is quite possible that over years – and I am talking about a long time – you will see a removal of Palestinians from the West Bank and quite possibly Gaza to other parts of the world and a no-state solution if I can put it that way. Israel triumphant covering it all” (“Israel-Palestine conflict: eyes on peace options as Gaza truce holds”, ABC Radio National Breakfast, 24 May 2021: https://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/breakfast/eyes-on-peace-options-as-gaza-truce-holds/13356188 ; see also Gideon Polya, “Australian ABC airs former US ambassador adumbrating total expulsion of Occupied Palestinians”, Countercurrents, 26 May 2021: https://countercurrents.org/2021/05/australian-abc-airs-former-us-ambassador-adumbrating-total-expulsion-of-occupied-palestinians/ ).
PORATH. Yoram Bar Porath (Israeli academic) demanding honesty about the Zionist program (1972): “It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism, colonialization or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands” ([4], Yoram Bar Porath, Yediot Aahronot, of 14 July 1972).
RABIN. Yitzhak Rabin (Israeli Prime Minister 1974 – 1977 and 1992 – 1995) (1983): “[Israel will] create in the course of the next 10 or 20 years conditions which would attract natural and voluntary migration of the refugees from the Gaza Strip and the west Bank to Jordan. To achieve this we have to come to agreement with King Hussein and not with Yasser Arafat” (Rabin (a "Prince of Peace" by Clinton's standards), explaining his method of ethnically cleansing the occupied land without stirring a world outcry”( [2], Yitzhak Rabin quoted in David Shipler in the New York Times, 04/04/1983 citing Meir Cohen's remarks to the Knesset's foreign affairs and defense committee on March 16).
Yitzhak Rabin (1948): “We shall reduce the Arab population to a community of woodcutters and waiters” ([4], Yitzhak Rabin 's description of the conquest of Lydda, after the completion of Plan Dalet, quoted by Uri Lubrani, PM Ben-Gurion's special adviser on Arab Affairs, 1960, from “The Arabs in Israel” by Sabri Jiryas).

SHAKED. Ayelet Shaked (Israeli Justice Minister ) posted a statement on Facebook (June 2014): “The entire Palestinian people is the enemy…[destroy Palestine] including its elderly and its women, its cities and its villages, its property and its infrastructure… [kill Palestinian mothers of] little snakes” (Ayelet Shaked quoted in Center for Constitutional Rights, “The genocide of the Palestinian People: an international law and human rights perspective”, 25 August 2016: https://ccrjustice.org/genocide-palestinian-people-international-law-and-human-rights-perspective ).
Ayelet Shaked (Israeli Justice Minister) (2015): “A call for the indiscriminate killing of children is a terrible thing. But what if the statement was that any time you kill our children, you’re exposing your own children to the same fate? Still unsettling, but rational when you consider that they purposely use their kids as human shields. It’s not a call for indiscriminate murder” (Judy Maltz, “What Does Israel’s New Justice Minister Really Think About Arabs?”, Haaretz, 11 May 2015: https://www.haaretz.com/2015-05-11/ty-article/.premium/what-does-ayelet-shaked-really-think-about-arabs/0000017f-dc2f-df62-a9ff-dcffae240000 ).
Ayelet Shaked (Israeli Justice Minister) in an interview with Haaretz ( 2011): “In order to prevent the sale of the neighborhood to Arab hands, all members of the group [My Israel] were instructed to call senior executives at the bank and protest, and those with accounts at Bank Leumi were instructed to call their branch managers and notify them of their desire to leave the bank” (Judy Maltz, “What Does Israel’s New Justice Minister Really Think About Arabs?”, Haaretz, 11 May 2015: https://www.haaretz.com/2015-05-11/ty-article/.premium/what-does-ayelet-shaked-really-think-about-arabs/0000017f-dc2f-df62-a9ff-dcffae240000 ).
SHAMIR. Yizhak Shamir (Israeli Prime Minister, 1983 – 1984 and 1986 – 1992) (1988): "(The Palestinians) would be crushed like grasshoppers ... heads smashed against the boulders and walls” ([2], [3], [4], Yitzhak Shamir in a speech to Jewish settlers, New York Times April 1, 198
Yizhak Shamir (1990): “The past leaders of our movement left us a clear message to keep Eretz Israel from the Sea to the River Jordan for future generations, for the mass aliya (=Jewish immigration), and for the Jewish people, all of whom will be gathered into this country"( [2], Yitzhak Shamir declaration at a Tel Aviv memorial service for former Likud leaders, November 1990. Jerusalem Domestic Radio Service).
Yizhak Shamir (1997): "The settlement of the Land of Israel is the essence of Zionism. Without settlement, we will not fulfill Zionism. It's that simple” ([2], Yitzhak Shamir, Maariv, 21 February 1997).
SHARETT. Moshe Sharett (PM of Apartheid Israel, 1954-1955) (1955): “This state [Israel] has no international obligations, no economic problems, the question of peace is non-existent. It must calculate its steps narrow-mindedly and live by the sword .... It must – invent non-existent dangers, and to do this it must adopt the method of provocation and retaliation’ (entry in Prime Minister Moshe Sharett’s diary on 26/5/1955) (quoted in Jeremy Salt, ‘The Unmaking of the Middle East, A History of Western disorder in Arab land’, University of California Press, 2008, page 170; Margaret Waspe, “Open letter to the Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Defence, Senators and Members of the Australian Parliament.

SHARON. Ariel Sharon (Israeli Prime Minister, 2001 – 2006) (1998): “It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism, colonialization, or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands” ( [2], [3], Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of militants from the extreme right-wing Tsomet Party, reported by Agence France Presse, November 15, 1998).
Ariel Sharon (1998): “Everybody has to move, run and grab as many (Palestinian) hilltops as they can to enlarge the (Jewish) settlements because everything we take now will stay ours...Everything we don't grab will go to them” ([2], [4], Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of the Tsomet Party, Agence France Presse, 15 November, 1998).
Ariel Sharon (2001): “Israel may have the right to put others on trial, but certainly no one has the right to put the Jewish people and the State of Israel on trial” ( [2], [3], Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, 25 March, 2001 quoted in BBC News Online).
Ariel Sharon (Prime Minister) during an argument in an Israeli cabinet meeting in which Shimon Peres warned Prime Minister Ariel Sharon that unless he would heed American requests for a cease fire with the Palestinians, he could cause America to turn against Israel; in a fit of anger, Sharon responded to Peres (2001): “Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it” ([3], reported in Hebrew on the Israeli radio station, Kol Yisrael; Kevin Barrett, “Buying Sharon – and “We Jews control America””” , Veterans Today, 11 January 2014: http://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/01/11/burying-sharon/ ; BBC News, 3 October 2001).
SMOTRICH. Bezalel Smotrich (former Apartheid Israeli transport minister): "We are the landlords of this land. This land has belonged to the Jewish people for thousands of years. God did promise us all of the Land of Israel, a promise he kept. We’ve just been the most hospitable people in the world since the days of Abraham and so you’re [Palestinians are] still here. At least for now" (Lana Latour, “Israel can now strip away 48 [48-er] Palestinians’ citizenship”, Middle East Eye, 25 July 2022: https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/israel-palestinian-strip-away-citizenship ).
Bezalel Smotrich (Minister of Finance, and a senior member of the Defence Ministry in charge of civilian affairs in the West Bank) tweeted re the 5-party pre-Ramadan 26 February 2023 Aqaba Conference involving Jordanians, the Egyptians, the Palestinians, the Americans and the Israelis of Jordan, that agreed to freeze the building of further settlements for 4 months (2023): “I have no idea what they spoke about or not in Jordan, But one thing I do know: there will not be a freeze on the building and development in settlements, not even for one day (it is under my authority)” (Jafar Ramini, “An open call for genocide in Palestine”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 March 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/an-open-call-for-genocide-in-palestine/ ).
Bezalel Smotrich (after 400 heavily armed illegal settlers attacked the 6,000 population village of Huwara near Nablus on about 25 February 2023 torching cars, homes, mosques in a Huwara Pogrom) (2023): “The Palestinian village of Huwara should be wiped off the earth. The Israeli government needs to do it and not private citizens” (Jafar Ramini, “An open call for genocide in Palestine”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 March 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/an-open-call-for-genocide-in-palestine/ ).
Benjamin Netanyahu re the 5-party pre-Ramadan 26 February 2023 Aqaba Conference involving Jordanians, the Egyptians, the Palestinians, the Americans and the Israelis that agreed to freeze the building of further settlements for 4 months (2023): “Construction and arrangement in Judea and Samaria [the Jewish name for the occupied West Bank] will continue, according to the original planning and schedule without any changes. There is not and will not be any freezing” (Jafar Ramini, “An open call for genocide in Palestine”, Pearls & Irritations, 4 March 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/an-open-call-for-genocide-in-palestine/ ).
Bezalel Smotrich (Israeli finance minister) (2023): “The Palestinian people are an invention from the last century. There is no such thing as Palestinians because there’s no such thing as the Palestinian people” (Ali Abunimah, “Smotrich unmasks Israel’s truly genocidal face”, Electronic Intifada, 20 March 2023: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/smotrich-unmasks-israels-truly-genocidal-face ).
Bezalel Smotrich (yelling at Palestinian lawmakers in the Israeli parliament) (2021): “It’s a mistake that Ben-Gurion didn’t finish the job and didn’t throw you out in 1948” (Ali Abunimah, “Smotrich unmasks Israel’s truly genocidal face”, Electronic Intifada, 20 March 2023: https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/smotrich-unmasks-israels-truly-genocidal-face ).
Bezalel Smotrich, Israeli finance minister, in charge of settlements, quoted in ‘The Times’ of Israel (2023): “Is there a Palestinian history of culture? No. The Palestinians are an invented people from less than a hundred years ago” (Jafar M Ramini (Palestinian writer and political analyst), “From Oslo to Sharm El-Sheik”, Countercurrents, 26 March 2023: https://countercurrents.org/2023/03/from-oslo-to-sharm-el-sheik/?swcfpc=1 . )
TAMIR. Naftali Tamir (former Israeli Ambassador to Australia) (2006): “Israel and Australia are like sisters in Asia. We are in Asia without the characteristics of Asians. We don’t have yellow skin and slanted eyes. Asia is basically the yellow race. Australia and Israel are not - we are basically the white race. We are on the western side of Asia and they are on the southeastern side. Israel has not fully acknowledged the value of working together with Australia in Asia. It’s a way for us to cooperate with and enhance our position in the countries neighboring Australia" (“Envoy to Australia to explain “yellow skin” remarks”, Haaretz, 16 October 2006).
VILNAI. Matan Vilnai (Apartheid Israeli deputy defense minister) adumbrating shoa or holocaust of Palestinians (February 2008): “The more Qassam [rocket] fire intensifies and the rockets reach a longer range, they will bring upon themselves a bigger shoah because we will use all our might to defend ourselves” (Matan Vilnai quoted in Center for Constitutional Rights, “The genocide of the Palestinian People: an international law and human rights perspective”, 25 August 2016: https://ccrjustice.org/genocide-palestinian-people-international-law-and-human-rights-perspective ).
WEISS. Professor Hillel Weiss (Jewish literature academic, Bar Ilan University, Israel): “.Listen, Abu Mazen: you aren’t a people and therefore there can be no genocide [against Palestinians]. To exterminate you like a simple rabble is a mitzvah and it will be fulfilled finally despite the fact that the government of Israel still doesn’t accept its responsibility for raising mendacious international recognition of you [Palestine]. [This process] started with Begin ended with Gal-On. It contributed to the deception of the entire world and [increased] the popularity of these monsters [Palestinians] who rose up due to our weakness and lack of faith. The quicker you [Abu Mazen] can concede that you are not a people and that your place is nowhere within the borders of the land of Israel, the better off you will be…as long as you evacuate the country of your own volition” (Hillel Weiss quoted in Richard Silverstein, “Israeli professor calls for Palestinian genocide”, Tikun Olan, 14 October 2014: https://www.richardsilverstein.com/2014/10/14/israeli-professor-calls-for-palestinian-genocide/ ).
WEITZ. Joseph Weitz (the director of the Land and Afforestation Department of the Jewish National Fund (JNF)): “There are some who believe that the non-Jewish population, even in a high percentage, within our borders will be more effectively under our surveillance; and there are some who believe the contrary, i.e., that it is easier to carry out surveillance over the activities of a neighbor than over those of a tenant. [I] tend to support the latter view and have an additional argument:...the need to sustain the character of the state which will henceforth be Jewish...with a non-Jewish minority limited to 15 percent. I had already reached this fundamental position as early as 1940 [and] it is entered in my diary” ([4], Joseph Weitz, head of the Jewish Agency's Colonization Department quoted in “Israel: an Apartheid State” by Uri Davis, page 5).
Joseph Weitz (head of the Jewish Agency’s Colonization Department) (1940): “Between ourselves, it must be clear that there is no room for both peoples together in this country. We shall not achieve our goal if the Arabs are in this small country. There is no other way than to (get rid of) all of them. Not one village, not one tribe should be left” (Michael Lerner, “Jews against Zionism – an intro to their perspective”, Tikkun, 7 March 2014: https://www.tikkun.org/jews-against-zionism-an-intro-to-their-perspective ).
Joseph Weitz (Director of the Jewish National Fund): “It must be clear that there is no room in the country for both peoples … If the Arabs leave it, the country will become wide and spacious for us. The only solution is a Land of Israel … without Arabs”( Benny Morris, “The Birth of the Palestine Refugee Problem”, 1947-1949, p. 27).
WEIZMANN. Chaim Weizmann (chemist, Zionist leader, President of the Zionist Organization and Israeli President of Israel, 1949- 1952) (1920): “We will establish ourselves in Palestine whether you like it or not...You can hasten our arrival or you can equally retard it. It is however better for you to help us so as to avoid our constructive powers being turned into a destructive power which will overthrow the world” ([4] (Chaim Weizmann, "Judische Rundschau," No. 4, 1920).
Chaim Weizmann advocating genocide (1941): “If half a million Arabs could be transferred, two million Jews could be put in their place” (Martin Shaw, “Palestine In An International Historical Perspective On Genocide”, 9 Holy Land Studies 1, 13 & 19, 2010 ; Center for Constitutional Rights, “The genocide of the Palestinian people: an international law and human rights perspective”, 25 August 2016: https://ccrjustice.org/genocide-palestinian-people-international-law-and-human-rights-perspective ).
YAAKOV. Itzhak Yaakov (Israeli engineer and brigadier general in charge of development of an Israeli nuclear bomb to be detonated in the Egyptian Sinai Peninsular as a demonstration if the 1967 War did not go as planned; he was later punished when he revealed this secret): “Doomsday operation… Look, it was so natural. You’ve got an enemy, and he says he’s going to throw you to the sea. You believe him. How can you stop him?” You scare him. If you’ve got something you can scare him with, you scare him… [the plan] was to create a new situation on the ground, a situation which would force the great powers to intervene, or a situation which would force the Egyptians to stop and say, ‘Wait a minute, we didn’t prepare for that.’ The objective was to change the picture” (William J. Broad and David E. Sanger, ““Last secret” of 1967 War: Israel’s Doomsday Plan for nuclear display”, New York Times, 3 June 2017: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/03/world/middleeast/1967-arab-israeli-war-nuclear-warning.html .
YA’ALON. Moshe Ya’alon (Lieutenant General Moshe ("Bogey") Ya'alon, headed genocidal Israeli Operation Defensive Shield in West Bank in 2002; IDF chief of staff from 2002-2005; Israeli Defense Minister from 2013-2016 including the genocidal 2014 Gaza Massacre) (2002):.The characteristics of that [Palestinian] threat are invisible, like cancer. When you are attacked externally, you see the attack, you are wounded. Cancer, on the other hand, is something internal. Therefore, I find it more disturbing, because here the diagnosis is critical. If the diagnosis is wrong and people say it's not cancer but a headache, then the response is irrelevant. But I maintain that it is cancer. My professional diagnosis is that there is a phenomenon here that constitutes an existential threat… There are all kinds of solutions to cancerous manifestations. Some will say it is necessary to amputate organs. But at the moment, I am applying chemotherapy, yes" (Moshe Ya’alon, quoted in Ari Shavit, “The enemy within”, Haaretz, 29 August 2002: https://www.haaretz.com/the-enemy-within-1.35604 ).
YOSSIAN. Eliyahu Yossian (Israeli military officer at Israel’s elite intelligence unit 8200) (2023): “There is no population in Gaza there are 2.5 million terrorists. There is no meaning to give them warning missiles” (Hebh Jamal, “A list of Israeli lies, propaganda and genocidal intent”, The Diaspora Journal, 15 November 2023: https://hebhjamal.substack.com/p/a-list-of-israeli-lies-propaganda ).
ZIONIST DEFAMATION OF ANTI-RACIST JEWS. Zionist anti-Jewish anti-Semitic and false defamation of anti-racist Jews as “self-hating Jews” or “self-loathing Jews”. The Zionist hatred for Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims and Asians also extends to hatred of anti-racist Jews who are compelled to publicly oppose ongoing Zionsit human rights abuse, racism, Apartheid and genocide. Google searches for the terms “self-hating Jews” or “self-loathing Jews” yield circa 35,000 and 45,000 results, respectively, evidence that these false, anti-Jewish anti-Semitic assertions have wide currency. For anti-racist Jews and indeed all anti-racist humanitarians the core moral messages from the Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million dead, 1 in 6 dying from deprivation) and from the more general WW2 European Holocaust (30 million Slav, Jewish and Gypsy dead) are “zero tolerance for racism”, “never again to anyone”, “bear witness” and “zero tolerance for lying”. However these sacred injunctions are grossly violated by the anti-Arab anti-Semitic, Islamophobic and indeed anti-Jewish anti-Semitic racist Zionists running Apartheid Israel and their Western backers variously involved in the ongoing Palestinian Genocide, Iraqi Genocide, Somali Genocide, Afghan Genocide, and the ongoing Muslim Holocaust and Muslim Genocide (see “Muslim Holocaust Muslim Genocide”: https://sites.google.com/site/muslimholocaustmuslimgenocide/ ; “Jews Against Racist Zionism”:https://sites.google.com/site/jewsagainstracistzionism/ ; “Non-Jews Against Racist Zionism”: https://sites.google.com/site/nonjewsagainstracistzionism/ ).
ZIONIST DEMONSTRATORS: Apartheid Israeli demonstrators quoted by Jafar Ramini, “The march of death”, Pearls & Irritations, 19 May 2023: https://johnmenadue.com/the-march-of-death/ : “Religious fanatics, waving the Israeli flag, chanting ‘Death to all Arabs’ and ‘Your Second Nakba Is Coming’. Last year a new curse was added, “May Your Village Burn” and, of course, the usual cry repeated over and over, “Kill Them All”.”
It is very powerful to quote expert opinion.
