Israel may cut off electricity to try to secure more hostage releases, as both sides prepare for war to restart
The Israeli government is reportedly planning to ratchet up its blockade on Gaza as part of what it has called a “hell plan” to pressure Hamas into further hostage releases without a troop withdrawal from the Palestinian territory.
With the six-week-old ceasefire in limbo, and no sign of movement towards a second phase that was due to start last weekend, both sides were taking contingency steps to return to a war footing.
The government of Benjamin Netanyahu was reported to have made preparations to go beyond the suspension of food and fuel announced on Sunday, to implement a programme of steadily increased isolation of the coastal strip and its population of about 2.2 million, according to the national public radio station, Kan, which said the government was referring to the programme of measures as the “hell plan”.
The plan would involve cutting off electricity and remaining water supplies, and moving Palestinians in northern Gaza back down to the south, to pave the way to the potential resumption of full-scale war.
As if the 250 000 dead Palestinians wasn’t enough, Netanyahu wants escalation and Trump is more than willing to give it to him…
Trump issues ‘last warning’ to Hamas to release all hostages, as US holds direct talks with Hamas
…Trump Gaza sings the lyrics…
“Donald Trump will set you free,
bringing the life for all to see,
no more tunnels, no more fear,
Trump Gaza is finally here.”
…Trump Gaza is finally here.
The genocide the West is enabling will curse us one day and generate a fury none of us can predict.
“Donald Trump will set you free,
bringing the life for all to see,
no more tunnels, no more fear,
Trump Gaza is finally here.”
The American Midnight is upon us.
Trump Gaza is finally here.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
Not a single word from our government .Winston was quick to sack Goff for telling the truth about trump but the Israel ambasador is still here while his country kills 100k innocent people in the name of genocide .And IDF soldiers are wellcomed to NZ for rest and recreation .
Instead, Luxon is having meetings with genocide promoter Juliet Moses to get his marching orders. Odd, I thought he was supposed to be the Prime Minister of New Zealand?
What else is there to say other than, the rich and powerful are getting away with committing genocide in the Middle East, therefore they’ll be able to get away with committing genocide anywhere including right on our very doorstep. When you control the media and the political class, you can easily get way with blue friggin murder. The way out of this mess is to automatically disbelieve what the media and what the politicians have to say…..
Benjamin Netanyahu is a hero for the Jewish people and does everything in his power to protect the homeland from Palestinian invaders. Gaza is contaminated by those who seek to destroy Israel. The only solution is the removal of all gentiles from Gaza!
Benny is a hero for Israeli people, this much is true, but Israel does not represent Jewish people, in any way, shape or form. And yes, Gaza – Palestine is contaminated, by the illegal Israeli occupation, propped up by us.
What we allow to happen here, we soon open up the entire world to face in the not too distant future, with only the billionaire class able to escape the calamities that they themselves enforce upon everybody else. If you’re not a billionaire then you’re a part of the contaminated class – in their eyes – too, big Z.
Martyn – Perhaps Hamas should quit Gaza – and let Gazans get on with life??
Hamas isn’t cutting aid, Israel is. Hamas isn’t killing Palestinians, Israel is. Hamas does not illegally occupy and control Gaza, Israel does. We all see what one half of the problem here is – us – being the other half.
And yet some fixate upon Hamas anyway. The scale of the criminality here renders the Hamas subterfuge absurd.
A O – The aid has been cut due to Hamas trying to run the aid programme.
Fancy that, the mob Israel are using as the pretext to slaughter Palestinians, the mob that largely resides underground, now wants to put itself front and centre in order to distribute aid, that Israel controls and now fully blocks from coming in to Gaza. Oh, the senselessness of it all, clearly, the spinmeisters are out to lunch here, chowing down on y’know what….
Nathan perhaps the Jewish interlopers mainly from Poland who pretend to be Jewish by changing their names can fuck off.
fingrinn – Or the Hamas terrorists can F off…
‘Palestinian invaders.’
Wrong way around Zelda! Arabs, Jews, Christians all lived in Palestine at the time of the Ottoman Empire and before( Byzantine Empire, Roman Empire, Greek).
Many accounts record them living peacefully together with no nutjobs like Zelda to bother them.
INVADERS were European Zionists with screaming fuckups like Zelda declaring Palestine is now Israel and belongs to Jewish people.
Zelda – everyone has the right to be stupid – but you are abusing the privilege.
Israeles should never have been given the land with the ability to take over peoples homes in the first place.
Not sure why they jumped at the chance becoming Nazis themselves with a new Hitler at the top
