Israel’s military has claimed it has encircled Gaza City and divided the besieged coastal strip into two, as Gaza came under its third total communications outage since the start of the war.
“Today, there is north Gaza and south Gaza,” Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters on Sunday, calling it a “significant stage” in Israel’s war against Hamas.
Israeli media reported that troops are expected to enter Gaza City within 48 hours. Strong explosions were seen in northern Gaza after nightfall.
But the “collapse in connectivity” across Gaza reported by internet access advocacy group NetBlocks.org and confirmed by the Palestinian telecom company Paltel made it even more complicated to convey details of the new stage of the military offensive.
A complete (=utopistic) success would be Hamas being completely destroyed and islamistic extremism discouraged generally. It’s not a great fit because of all kinds of differences of these conflicts, but how the Nazis were deposed at the end of WW2 is a great model for how to eradicate fascists.
Israel is pretty fucking fascist though, what’s should be done to deal with Israel?
The whole middle east is “pretty fucking racist”. To be honest, most of the world is unabashedly racist, but at least we get mad at each other in the west about it. It’s something, at least, to have that little introspection.
Your question should be more targeted about a unique trait they possess that perhaps everyone of their neighbors doesn’t also possess. It’s our own ethnocentrism that causes us to judge them through our lense vs. their actual peers.
I think the whole thing is atrocious, but the double-edged sword of sovereignty is that we only get so much of a say in how two countries handle their business. If the rest of the world cut Isreal off right now, they would still handle this conflict the way they are right now.
