If 1.3 million Palestinians from the southern Gaza city are forced into tent camps along the sea ahead of a military offensive, Israel will be closer to its goal of expelling strip’s population to Egypt by land and other countries by boat

    the plan calls for displaced Palestinians to be “concentrated in the western area of the enclave, within the coastal strip,” along the sea. […] Israel says it will establish 15 camp villages along the coast between Rafah and Gaza City in central Gaza.

    Concentrated in camps, you say?

    Each camp will be equipped with 25,000 tents. Egyptian officials say that Israel expects the camps, which would include medical facilities, to be funded by the US and Arab states.

    So Israel just expects to blow everything to shit and have everyone else pay for it?

    If Palestinians in Gaza are increasingly concentrated in tent camps along a tiny strip on Gaza’s coast, with no homes to return to, no functioning hospitals, and little food and humanitarian aid, this will enable Israel’s efforts to force Gaza’s population to ‘voluntarily’ flee to Egypt by land or other third parties by sea. Israeli leaders have stated they wish to make life so difficult and dangerous for Palestinians in Gaza that the most humanitarian solution for them will be to leave Gaza and allow Israel to take it over for Jewish settlement.

    Fuck you, Israel.
