Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”
The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.
The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC
“Israel has sparked global outrage”
YetI have to learn this from a fringe platform, so small it is allowed to report on these things.
There is no ‘global outrage’ , nobody even knows this.
Just as nobody has seen the horrificly malnourished Palestinian hostages .Any other source on this?
Mainstream newspapers are too busy plastering Israeli propaganda on the frontpage. But here is Democracy Now!
Sick ceasefire bro
This is really sick but at the same time that’s what you get for supporting monsters.
Leave-lets?
As a German I’m absolutely horrified by this cruel and inhumane repetition of history.
As a multi-national, multi-ethnic, mutt, I am too.
Given that part of my mutt-makeup is Austrian, I’m offended that Austria and our northern neighbor have greatly contributed to this. Our deserved guilt over the Holocaust blinded us to decade after decade of human rights abuses by Israel.
We’ve seen this coming for a long time and, as a taxpaying contributor to the biggest funder of Israel, I’m ashamed.
Well if we keep solving religious persecution by allowing each group to fuck off to their own country, this will keep happening. Religion should not be the guide for any countries policy, its absurd.
Let’s watch the zionists scramble to protect the settler colonial entity and calling the use of the word “genocide” an overreaction, or even more hilarious, antisemitic.
Imagine there are people who want you dead for existing. They tell you to leave but you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you. You don’t have anything and aren’t even able to leave, even if you wanted to. So they come, they kill your family and they kill you.
Now imagine there are people in other parts of the world, they have everything and they didn’t even know you, but they consider it served you right.
This world is fucked up.
The Republican party would like to do the same thing to migrants here in the US. Instead they are taking them offsite to concentration camps in Panama and Guantanamo… That we know of so far.
Oh my god! Who the heck is supposed to help us all stop this?
They tell you to leave but
you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you.Actively block you from leaving and attack you when you try to leave via “safe routes”.
FTFY
Hey everyone, this guy is a mod who had previously banned pro Palestine comments a few months back. Neat to see you finally changed your mind on the active genocide.
As someone who has friends in Southern Lebanon who have been held at gunpoint by IDF forces and threatened with death, I’m pretty sure you’re confused.
Were they israeli friends that mistakenly got confused for Lebanese or Palestinians by the IDF?
And yet, here you are, banning me for arguing that palestinians have the right to defend themselves from a genocide.
Would you like to recant?
Fuck trump
But the guy that leveled Gaza for Trump is cool though, right?
Election’s over, Harris lost. Deal with it.
Wont get over it, those that dont remember history are doomed to repeat it, exactly the way they repeated their failures from 2016 in 2024
It is entirely possible that more than one ass hole exists in the world.
Seeing that this entire post is about Gaza, there are 3 assholes.
Can’t we assume they can all get fucked? It’s weird to think a rational person would be condemning one but not the others.
The voting statistics say you assume wrong.
You can count the ‘rational persons’ condemning them in words yet voting for the genocide enabler out of purely selfish interest.
“Ohh, but Billy Bob who actually pulled the trigger with a smile is cool thought, right?”
There are way more than 3, even if you just confine yourself to the members of the IDF and don’t look at any of the other factions.
Without US money and weapons that IDF soldier wouldn’t have been able to pull the trigger. Right now there are 3 assholes, Biden, Harris, and Trump
Israel has a pretty significant domestic arms industry. I’m pretty sure they’d be fine without USAs help.
They are only able to have that significant arms industry because of money from the US
Literally worse than Spez
genocide much?
I wonder where the genocide deniers are now.
That’s impossible. We didn’t reelect Biden/Kamala.
Can I get a religious war with a side of genocide? Oh, it’s a package deal and I also get free racism? Cool.
the colonial project far supercedes religion here
Yeah, it was European colonialism with a side of antisemitism. Amazing how it turned out.
What many do not know is thar Theodor Herzl and even the first Israeli prime ministers were hardcore atheists. Zionism faced much opposition from religious Jews.
How Israel Went From Atheist Zionism to Jewish State
Zionism as a national movement that rebelled against historical Judaism was mainly atheistic. … Due to the sweeping opposition of the rabbis of Germany, Theodor Herzl was forced to transfer the First Zionist Congress from Munich to the Swiss city of Basel.
But beginning with the first stages in the consolidation and settlement of the Zionist movement, it was forced to meticulously sort and thoroughly nationalize some of the religious beliefs in order to turn them into nation-building myths.
here have some fun
Following through on this threat would likely result in another Arab-Israeli war.
Not with the US support that Israel has now.
Israel always had US support. The difference now are just words.
As i have seen many people in the commemts who think that this was not the plan of the Democrats and that the Palestinians would be better off under Harris. Here is a range of articles from Oct. 2023 to Jan. 2024 and a recent one discussing Bidens similiar plans of ethnic cleansing and the subsequent greenlighting of genocide, when it failed.

Then I guess the election shouldn’t have been a referendum on Palestine for anyone and Trump should have been stopped for all the things he’s now getting away with.
I’ve seen a couple of news articles saying the U.S. is setting itself up for another terrorist attack, but a couple of Americans have told me that’s not the case and they’re not worried about it… anyone have any insight into this they can offer?
I’ve seen a couple of news articles saying the U.S. is setting itself up for another terrorist attack
But why would the trump administration want an excuse to declare martial law?
Interesting. Thanks.
They still don’t really know why 9/11 happened, they still believe the ‘they hate us for our freedoms’ line.
They themselves made it happen.
Like they made ISIS happen.
The magically funded, equiped and and trained army of fanatics that 'hate us for our freedoms’ and curiously never attack the US or israel (only by accident and they apologised) and only shows up where the US wants regime change.Why do you think it happened?
Essentially blowback for decades of US military adventurism in the region. Bin Laden’s theory was that an attack that’s big enough would cause the US government to overreact and overreach, imploding the American Empire because Americans wouldn’t accept their civil liberties being taken away and Americans coming back from abroad in coffins.
Obviously Bin Laden was wrong about how much Americans would just be ok with everything the government ended up doing, and didn’t achieve his stated goal.
Maybe Bin’s plan will work now (even if he’s not around to see it), with how crazy Trump’s been acting? That’s actually a question.

Americans, on average, are totally ignorant. Don’t believe what we say lol.
Looked at the article… it’s really discouraging the way some Americans support and seem to love this guy. With everything he’s doing, do you think he’s setting the country up for another major terrorist attack?
Again, I’m an American, so don’t trust me, but…
I dunno? I could see Iran funding another assassination attempt (and I can hardly blame them if Trump goes through with the Gaza idea), and obviously there will be some holes in security agencies from firings, maybe a few local people who get pushed over the edge… but a terrorist attack seems low on our list of upcoming problems? Anti-terrorism efforts are still functioning, as far as I know.
What you might’ve seen in a lot of media is that pulling USAID and some other stuff will destabilize regions and turn some into terrorist breeding grounds, which could be true. The consquences of that may take some time to manifest though, maybe even past Trump’s term.
Hmm, you don’t sound very worried about it either… same as the other Americans I’ve asked. Like, unless I’m just not reading your tone right, I’m probably more worried about it than you are.
You’re right, I probably should be!
There’s just so much else going on! Are Trump/Musk like actually subverting the government and triggering a constitutional crisis? Is he actually gonna follow through with the crazier plans like strongarming Canada or colonizing Gaza? Are we getting pulled into a war? Will there be an economic crisis from some huge dysfunction? I am worried because Trump genuinely doesn’t seem to grasp a lot of things, especially foreign policy or technical matters, and worst case scenarios are pretty bad.
Like, if you told me, with certainty, there was a high probability of another 9/11 this month, I would freak out… But it wouldn’t even snuff out all those other stuff going on! It wouldn’t be like a Bush moment that defines his presidency and the era, it would just turn into a big controversial mess.
If it’s more like a unabomber attack or a smaller scale thing, honestly, it would blend into the stream of shock news. Trump would probably blame it on Democrats and politicize it, and everyone would take the bait. That sounds horrible, but it’s plausible.
I get what you’re saying… it’s overwhelming for us, and we’re in Canada… can’t imagine what it’s like for those of you who are right there and can see/understand what’s going on. The seeming lack of concern from some Americans makes perfect sense when you explain it that way. Thanks!
Drag sure hopes someone gives Donald Trump a bit of terror. But it should be the Luigi kind, not the Unabomber kind.
Y’all getting the latter, definitely.
The guy’s definitely not winning any popularity contests.
It’ll be interesting to see how the media companies deny that this is an open admission of genocide.
Oh good. The chosen people have chosen ethnic cleansing and genocide, being implemented by the highest ranked goy in the world.
I relish in the fact that my comment calling Trump a Goy and Bibi a racist piece of shit along with his government got some people ruffled under their feathers.
Good thing you’re born with the right parents so you don’t get carpet bombed into oblivion by a nation that has no right to exist and wouldn’t exist if the US wasn’t in their back pocket.
Jews even hate Jews that aren’t the right colour or race of people.
But god forbid we criticize this slime for what is truly is. Horrific. But you stand tall from your internet podium.
Shame on you for calling me bigot when I’m defending people who have suffered at the hands of Zionist, Jews and Israel.
How long till this post gets removed as well? Cowards.
Zionists hate Jews which are not the right color. Your comment is doing a lot of conflating.
So this Wikipedia statement is factual then?
The arrival of Zionist settlers to Palestine during this period is widely seen as the start of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. The Zionist claim to Palestine was based on the notion that the Jews’ historical right to the land outweighed that of the Arabs.
Yes but it is important that in the past the word Jew got used a lot instead of Zionist. While factually correct, the sect doing behind the colonization of Palestine were all Zionists. A cow is an animal but an animal is not a cow type of beat. Whateverr reason they used was made up retroactively. Initially they thought about colonizing Uganda but then went for Palestine.
What makes it more confusing is that Zionists saw Jews as an ethnicity.
Whereas religious Jews did not define themselves by race but by religion.
25 people have upvoted this bigoted bullshit.
This is why I will always be labeled a Zionist no matter what I say or do. It doesn’t matter how much effort I have put into trying to stop this genocide or how much I condemn Israel… nothing I ever say or do will be enough because I happened to be born from certain parents.
I also never call anyone a goy, or consider myself chosen. Again though, that doesn’t matter. To at least 26 people on Lemmy. Probably far more.
Mean words on the internet vs War Crimes. Oh poor you, you’re so oppressed aren’t you.
I’m not always with FlyingSquid but I’m with him on this one. People on lemmy are oh so progressive but under the guise of "criticizing“ religion, you can get away with saying the most horrible shit and people will be celebrating you.
Like, what does Judaism as a religion have to do with Israel colonizing & genociding Palestinians? Yeah they call themselves Jewish and they want a Jewish ethnostate, I get that. The Nazis did the same thing without any religion, the Soviets & CCP as well. People are just horrible and will use any excuse to dehumanize, subdue, kill other people.
What do you achieve by comments like the top level one? The murderous bastards will just be like "oh antisemite buhu, anyway“ and the people just living their lives minding their own business or people active e.g. in JVP are being insulted for no good reason despite being on the right side of history.
I read it as a jab of the religious right in Israel that in large part are the die-hard supporters of the genocide and use do scripture as justification. However, I have to agree with that the post is wide open for other interpretations, including antisemitic ones. So it’s not a good post.
But all this “Woe is me” stuff i don’t get at all.
