Israel aims to declare new security zone in northern Gaza: Analyst
Al-Jazeera ^ | October 14, 2023

Posted on 10/14/2023 8:54:31 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Norman Finkelstein, an American author and political scientist, says Israel is aiming to expel Palestinians from the northern sector of Gaza and declare a new security zone there.

He described the Israeli operation in Gaza as “somewhere between a crime against humanity and genocide under international law”, and said the nuclear-armed state’s goal appears to be “to ethnically cleanse the northern sector of Gaza and declare it Israel’s new security zone”.

He added that “the cutting off of water, food and fuel to a civilian population, when keeping in mind Netanyahu’s claim that this situation will go on for a protracted period of time, and if you connect those two facts, no food, no water, no electricity for a protracted period of time, then its hard for anyone to concede that being anything but the crime – under international law – of genocide”.

This self loathing virtue signaling traitorous Jew does not hold hamas’s actions responsible for any suffering brought upon the civilian population of Gaza. It’s Israel’s fault for retaliating.

When is Israel going to learn that all these little security zones and jagged borders and districts are just not sustainable or manageable over time? Just draw a straight line from the sea to Jordan and say stay on that side and defend the border and be done with it.

Another jino. The self-loathing in them is incomprehensible.

Another self-hating Jew, this Finkelstein. Anyone who writes an article for AlJazeera is immediately suspect for not being a fan of Israel. This jerk is no exception. Whatever he writes should get the same attention as a fart in a windstorm.

You must not live in the state of Hawaii.
Honolulu, Oahu is a good place for Moslems.
I’m pretty sure that is where the only Mosques
in Hawaii are located.
It is far from me.
Good.
Hawaii state has one of the highest number per Capita number of churches in the USA, of all denominations.
there are two mosques in Honolulu.
We are aloha, and do not accept death, rape, and destruction of “infidels” as being normal.

From Wiki: Amid considerable public debate, Dershowitz campaigned to block Finkelstein’s tenure bid at DePaul University.[23][55] His campaign began in 2004 when he sent DePaul president Dennis Holtschneider a manuscript, “Literary McCarthyism,” arguing that the university should fire Finkelstein. He also contacted DePaul political science department chair Patrick Callahan.[56] In 2005, Dershowitz announced his intent to block Finkelstein’s tenure bid, saying, “I will come at my own expense, and I will document the case against Finkelstein” and “I’ll demonstrate that he doesn’t meet the academic standards of the Association of American Universities”.[57] In October 2006, he sent members of DePaul’s law and political science faculties what he called “a dossier of Norman Finkelstein’s most egregious academic sins, and especially his outright lies, misquotations, and distortions” and lobbied DePaul’s professors, alumni and administrators to deny Finkelstein tenure.[58] In May 2007, Dershowitz spoke at Northwestern University and claimed that Finkelstein had recently attended a Holocaust denial conference in Iran.[57]
