“Such an invasion could lead to horrific massacres and raise scenarios of a second Nakba,” the Gaza-based Palestinian Center for Human Rights said recently. “After 200 days of horrific genocidal acts in Gaza, the real objectives of the attack are the continuation of the 76-year-long ongoing Nakba and the erasure and genocidal destruction of the Palestinian people in Gaza. Israel is laying the groundwork to fulfill its settler-colonial plan of colonizing Gaza.”
Human rights defenders have warned that Israel may ultimately seek to ethnically cleanse as many Palestinians as possible from Gaza.
Tell me what is it called when you forcibly displace an entire population from an area?
If only we had a term for that.
I don’t disagree at all. I think my actual annoyance with this is the quotation marks. That makes it sound like it’s a quote from Israel. If they’re using it as a term, then there shouldn’t be quotations around it.
