How to pacify the Gaza sector
American Thinker ^ | 16 Oct, 2025 | Edward Topol

In Gaza, we must implement a reeducation program, or this peace plan is a fool’s errand.

As far as I understand, the real reason for the gathering of the Arab super-rich in Sharm el-Sheikh is their urgent need for Israeli and American air defense systems, as well as our advanced military and civilian technologies. But two years of Israel’s war with Hamas completely deprived them of access to these systems, as the honor of the Muslim uniform demanded that they side with their so-called “Palestinian brothers.” As a result, Hamas has become a thorn in their side, preventing them from acquiring the coveted weapons of defense against Iran.

Nothing personal, strictly business — yes, today even Muslims find it easier to get rid of Hamas than to endlessly feed this obstacle, which the IDF has almost destroyed. After all, there is nothing more despicable than a losing partner.

SNIP

But there’s a hitch: all these rosy plans for “a great beginning,” in the words of President Trump, “of reconciliation and lasting harmony for Israel and all the peoples of what will soon become a truly magnificent region” are opposed not only by the routed Hamas forces. Even if, under pressure from Arab leaders, all Hamas militants were to lay down their arms, no disarmament of Gaza would occur because Hamas, as a worldview and religion, is in the blood and minds of every single one of the Strip’s two or one and a half million inhabitants.

Judge for yourself: Until October 13, 2023, the “peaceful” Gazarabs lived in paradise — Israel supplied them with water, electricity, fuel, medicine, money, and weapons, while they themselves produced nothing but children for jihad. Children who, from the age of three, or even earlier, were raised on the commandment “Kill the Jew!”

How do you compromise with someone who wants to kill you?

You build up walls and leave them alone. That’s how.

They’ll just rearm and rebuild in Gaza even if Israel controls their borders, they still have access through smuggling by tunnels to Egypt.

To pacify Gaza....

Begin with a realistic assessment of the intellectual level of the Gazans (they voted to be led by Hamas).
Then proceed.

Take off and nuke the site from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure. (I’m kidding of course)

They are raised from infancy to be psychopathic killers and breeders.

It would be extreme psychological intervention to de-Nazify even one of them.

Why ruin a perfectly nice beachfront property?

Seriously, I don't think there is a permanent, long-term solution without taking actions that are an anathema to civilized Western countries. See Jordan in the 1970s.

It was barely a day after the IDF left areas of Gaza that Hamas started public executions of suspected "Collaborators with Israel" and other Gaza citizens were dancing in the streets.

Just a thought, I wonder if we could declare a part of Antartica as the new "Palestinian Homeland" build a nice little habitat, deport them en masse and periodically air drop food and clothing. (sarcasm off)

“Everyone in the strip...” is not Muslim. They’re are Christians caught in the middle.

Bomb gaza, bomb gaza some more, keep bombing gaza until there is nothing left but little bits of rubble and then bulldoze those little bits in to the river and the sea...

The only way to have peace with them is to eliminate ALL of them.

When they’re dead is the only time they’ll stop hating and trying to kill you and you don’t have to worry about what they’re going to do to you next.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/20/egyptian-troops-killed-car-bomb-attack#:~:text=A%20suicide%20bomber%20rammed%20his,authorised%20to%20release%20the%20information.

Numerous examples.

Egypt doesn’t want these Palestinians either. Nor does Jordan.

They

Many people in Egypt and Jordan sympathize with the Palestinians to some degree as fellow Muslims and out of what is perceived an injustice to the Palestinians that were also promised this land by the British in the past.

Furthermore, these nations are basically asked to pay / carry the brunt of the cost when it comes to Israel pushing people off their land: https://www.unrwa.org/activity/protection-jordan

Egypt struggles with a terrorist threat and actually largely under the table works with Israel to deal with this problem. Their military and EGIS can’t be public because of the repercussions.

The problem is when Israel took things to far. No differently than us post 9-11: our torture, kidnapping, indefinite detention without trial, even assassinations of people without a trail are a big black eye.

Israel and for us, it also creates pressure on the government of Egypt as those more Muslim fundamentalist groups exploit this in their PR campaigns. We are basically putting nations that are allies to a large a degree under pressure.

Nations like Egypt and Jordan cooperate with us and even Israel to a great degree. Jordan is an ally, outright. We have more or less (an open secret) bases there and service members. Jordan at our request got involved in Syria, bombing targets, even taking casualties, infamously: https://youtu.be/xu0rJneMWKQ?si=o_GFF8cyycoH9CfK

Jordan is one place where we sent folks post 9-11 for special interrogations, and I’m not talking about tickling their feet. Guess from where we shot down a lot of the missiles heading Israel’s way when Iran got involved?

But when you have hardliners in Israel expand West bank settlements, provoke the $hit out of folks on the Temple Mount, reject a two state solution which was also promised and agreed upon, you have all the ingredients for what happened on 7 October 2023.

When you then go in heavy handed into Gaza and inflict a massive crisis by telling these people to get lost (pushing them off their land) but with no real plan of where they should go, how to get there, help in resettlement, cause a humanitarian disaster by blocking aid (to force people to leave), shutting off the electricity, even causing many to be without water, you very quickly become the “bad guy.”

2.2 million people live there and when you bomb the crap out of the place and do this very liberally, low threshold, low discrimination, you’re no longer the innocent victim in that case: https://x.com/trtworld/status/1909245791044051126/photo/1

https://unosat.org/static/unosat_filesystem/3984/UNOSAT_A3_GazaStrip_CDA_September2024.png

It’s a simple concept really, although people never want to understand or abide by this when they think they are right, have God in their side, or some other crap rationalization.

In war you have 7 basic concepts that guide the legitimacy of what you’re doing. Two of these, the discrimination of civilian vs. combatant AND the concept of proportionality (your response can’t be disproportionate) were grossly violated in Gaza.

I don’t think anyone really complained when Israel blew up Hamas folks with their pagers. Ingenious!!!

I don’t think anyone complained to much about targeting Hamas leaders in Qatar.

Doing strikes into Gaza to destroy this organization or at least degrade them is also totally acceptable.

But Israel simply took things to far with Gaza by simply leveling parts of it, and denying aid to people, telling them to leave their land (and Israel’s leadership openly stated they want to seize large parts of Gaza). And that point the innocent victim also became a culprit.
