Palestinians’ dispossession near complete

IT MUST be clear by now: Israel wants to starve the Palestinians, to make the dispossession of the Palestinians irreversibly complete. This is the final stage of Plan Dalet in action.

Danielle Weiss has repeatedly expressed her wish to take over Gaza - as has President Trump. A number of officials of Israel have openly admitted that they want the Palestinians to die.

This view is also held by ordinary Israelis in civilian clothes trying to block whatever aid is being allowed through. We have seen images of food being thrown off trucks and trampled on until the container would break, and the contents spill out on the road. Unusable.

The only sin of the Palestinians is that they and thousands of their ancestors were born there and, they want the country to be as it was before the Zionists arrived.

The situation is a stark reminder of other incidents of the global north not caring about killing others in order to grab what they can get their hands on. Britain starved 50% of Boer children who died in concentration camps during the Anglo Boer War (1899-1902), in order to destroy the two Boer Republics for the gold and diamonds.

From 1904-1908, the German Empire waged a war of ethnic cleansing against the Herero and Nama People in German South West Africa, now known as Namibia.
