Watan-The Israeli occupation is gearing up to implement a plan described as malicious, involving the displacement of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip and reducing their numbers to a minimum, as reported by the Hebrew newspaper “Israel Hayom.”
Despite the characterization of this plan as unrealistic and impractical, its introduction in the media reflects Israel’s intentions to displace the inhabitants of the land and depopulate it, rendering it unfit for life through the eradication of its infrastructure.
According to the newspaper, the plan was formulated by the Israeli ambassador to the United States, Ron Dermer, at the request of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. As an editor, it is crucial to convey the gravity of the situation while maintaining a balanced and accurate representation of the information provided.
Israeli Malevolent Plan Unveiled in Gaza
Details of an Israeli plan aimed at reducing Gaza’s population have emerged, with the Israeli security leadership viewing it as a far-fetched idea. However, Netanyahu remains steadfast, challenging both American and Egyptian positions, suggesting potential flexibility through bribery to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in exchange for support and maintaining his precarious rule.
Israeli ministers of war have insisted that recent events in Gaza were temporary, but Netanyahu is determined to execute his plan, assigning Israeli Ambassador Ron Dermer to formulate it.
According to the newspaper, the plan exceeds American resistance and Egyptian rejection, aiming to gather Palestinians and transfer significant numbers to Egyptian territories through a narrow border strip within the Gaza Strip known as the “Salah al-Din Axis” or the “Philadelphia Axis,” as referred to by the occupation.
Netanyahu believes that Egyptian forces will refrain from opening fire on those attempting to use this sole outlet. However, the newspaper dismisses these fanciful dreams, citing various factors that make them unlikely to materialize.
While the newspaper mentions several secondary reasons, it overlooks the primary reason: the unwavering commitment of the Palestinian people to their land, resisting until their last breath. The Palestinian resistance stems from the locals, not settlers and mercenaries who support the occupation from around the world, as Israel does.
Multiple Scenarios for Gaza’s Future Unfold Amidst Uncertainty
The newspaper highlights that the United States may exploit Gaza’s humanitarian aid needs to push forward alternative plans under the supervision of President Joe Biden. Numerous scenarios, more practical than Netanyahu’s fantastical plan, could potentially be implemented.
“I Israel Hayom” asserts that after the Aqsa Flood operation on October 7, Israel will persist in its war, seeking to control Gaza militarily and civically in the foreseeable future.
Despite the continued closure of crossings to Israel, the newspaper mentions other options, with the Rafah crossing being one, despite strong opposition in Egypt. The underground passage between Gaza and Egyptian Rafah reportedly remains open, and the sea is also said to be accessible, offering an Israeli-approved route for Gazans wishing to migrate to European and African countries.
The newspaper delves into internal matters of the occupation, emphasizing that disputes and fear have instilled a crisis of trust between settlers and the occupying government. The aftermath of the Aqsa Flood has created significant doubt about the government’s ability to withstand any future attacks reaching settlements, akin to the events of October 7, 2023.
Palestinian journalist Yasser Al-Zaatreh raises questions about Egypt’s response to the plan’s execution. He suggests that the Sisi regime might accept financial incentives to ease the passage of these plans, raising concerns about the potential trade-off between financial aid and leniency in implementing such schemes.
هذه خطة نتنياهو للتهجير، فأين الموقف المصري الحازم؟!
خلاصة الخطة كشفتها “إسرائيل اليوم” أول أمس.
الخلاصة هي:
“تقليص عدد سكان غزة إلى الحد الأدنى الممكن. ويعارض بايدن ذلك بشدة وكذلك المجتمع الدولي برمّته. ويدّعي غالانت ورئيس الأركان والقيادة العليا في الجيش أنه لا يوجد مثل هذا…

However, Al-Zaatreh emphasized that all of this is unrelated to the on-the-ground resistance. It is only natural for people to fear for their families and seek a refuge to save them, especially when witnessing widespread destruction and upheaval.
