Mahmoud Darwish, Memory for Forgetfulness: August, Beirut, 1982 (trans. Ibrahim Muhawi)
Quote from an interview with Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Army Radio this week
Quote from Danny Danon, member of the Likud party last week
Quote from Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu last week
So yea just in case anyone needed a refresher on the objective at the heart of the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza, which had so far resulted in the killing of 21,000 Palestinians and the displacement of at least 1.8 million in the past 86 days alone.
But lest we forget, despite the horrific scale of these current massacres, this is one episode in the ongoing Israeli colonial project. It can look like land theft, resources theft, restriction of movement, extrajudicial killings, large scale killings - it all leads to one end goal which is ethnic cleansing despite Israel’s tireless attempts to distract from it by bringing in Hamas as the most recent justification for it.
I mean, take a look at this bonus Ben Gurion quote, the first prime minister of Israel in 1948, the year of the Palestinian Nakba and the establishment of Israel
& the positive spin on ethnic cleansing is not lost on me and it’s horrid to say the least
