A mainstream, self-declared centrist Israeli newspaper openly advocating for ethnic cleansing. Because certain crimes against humanity are just "sound and sober political science". I guess they've found the "final solution to the Palestinian problem".

"never again" means "never again on the recieving end".

Ethnic cleansing is now the very moderate stance in Isreal. It's citizens regularly go on camera saying everyone in Gaza should die, including babies - so they can't grow up and oppose their oppression.

Here is the journalist who reports directly from isreali streets https://youtu.be/EuB5SeahL-E?si=VGHhC2_b7EdtYTlf

I started thinking - both Arabs and Jews claim the land is theirs - which means both think their origins are in that area so are they genetically connected? So then I went on a little google search down a rabbit hole and found a few good articles - here is one https://www.patheos.com/blogs/epiphenom/2009/01/shared-genetic-heritage-of-jews-and.html

If they are basically like cousins then why all the hate? How can they look down on them when their genetic history shows they are descended from the same ancestors? Both came from phic dynamics of the Southern Levant during the Bronze Age. genomes of present-day groups geographically and historically linked to the Bronze Age Levant, including the great majority of present-day Jewish groups and Levantine Arabic-speaking groups, are consistent with having 50% or more of their ancestry from people related to groups who lived in the Bronze Age Levant and the Chalcolithic Zagros.

DNA After examining the DNA of 93 bodies recovered from archaeological sites around the southern Levant, the land of Canaan in the Bible, researchers have concluded that modern populations of the region are descendants of the ancient Canaanites. Most modern Jewish groups and the Arabic-speaking groups from the region show at least half of their ancestry as Canaanite.

In the study, published in Cell in May, 2020, the researchers explain that they used existing DNA analysis of 20 individuals, from sites in Israel and Lebanon, and then added 73 more, taking DNA from the bones of individuals found at Tel Megiddo, Tel Abel Beth Maacah and Tel Hazor (Northern Israel), Yehud (central Israel) and Baq’ah (central Jordan). By first eliminating individuals closely related to other individuals in the sample, then comparing the remaining 62 DNA samples against a dataset of 1,663 modern individuals, they were able to establish the genetic link to the modern populations. The ethnic groups either still living where Canaan once dominated, or from that area prior to moving elsewhere, are largely descended from the Canaanites.

Nothing has been more effective in radicalizing Palestinians than Israel's killing of 75,000 of them in the Gaza war. Add to that the decades of Israeli oppression in the West Bank, and its continued, utterly shameless, establishment of new Jewish settlements there, and radicalization of even the most moderate Palestinians is almost guaranteed.

You’re saying Israeli media are controlled by Putin? Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia? Russia, the ally of Iran, who supply Russia with weapons and are being bombed by…Israel? Are you just playing Ad Libs, or is there some logic to your words that is eluding me?
