Ex-Israeli official says Palestinians must be forced out of Gaza

7 Jan 2024 - 14:00

A former Israeli official said Palestinians must be driven out of their homeland calling on the western states to admit the displaced Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.


Dror Eydar, former Israeli ambassador to Italy, made the comment in an interview with the regime’s Channel 14 television news on Saturday as he pointed to the future of Israel’s brutal war on Gaza and its crimes against Palestinians since early October.

“The land should be taken away from the Palestinians, given that the Palestinian culture considers a man without his land to be nothing,” Eydar said.

The former Israeli official stressed that the dispossession of their land is the “appropriate punishment” for Palestinians in Gaza and called for the “continuation in this direction despite opposing voices.”
Addressing the Western governments, Eydar said, “I expect the Western world, as they did by welcoming a million Syrian refugees, to open their doors and welcome the people of Gaza.”
The Israeli occupation army has over the past three months been waging a devastating war on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, launching a relentless bombardment campaign on every inch of the besieged territory.
As part of Israel’s psychological warfare tactics, the regime’s authorities and members of prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s extremist cabinet have made similar various racist-tainted comments about Palestinians in Gaza.
Far-right Israeli minister Amichai Eliyahu on Saturday called on Tel Aviv to work out “ways for Gazans that are more painful than death” to break their morale and defeat them as the US military did with Japan.

Eliyahu said the residents of Gaza should be left with no option but to migrate to other countries as part of revenge measures against them in the wake of the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm on October 7.

Eliyahu had previously called for the use of atomic bombs against Palestinians in the besieged territory.

Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotrich also said earlier that the regime should "encourage migration" of Palestinians from Gaza, which drew widespread international condemnation, including from the US.

Israel waged the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Strip-based Palestinian resistance groups of Hamas and Islamic Jihad carried out the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm into the occupied territories in response to the occupying regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.

According to the Gaza-based health ministry, at least 22,722 Palestinians have been killed in the strikes, including 6,830 women and 9,730 children, and another 58,166 individuals injured.

Tel Aviv has also imposed a “complete siege” on Gaza, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.

More than three months into the offensive, the usurping Israeli regime by its own admission has failed to achieve its objectives of "destroying Hamas" and finding Israeli captives.
