Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”

The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.

The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC

    *Biden enables genocide

    Progressives: that’s fucked up, we should stop supporting Israel

    Liberals: ackchually its not a genocide because they only killed a quarter of the population, and you should stay quiet about this because it’ll just help trump win

      Choose between two geriatric evil fuckers. Will you choose the one that pretends to care or the one that promises outright destruction. Destruction it is…

    Imagine there are people who want you dead for existing. They tell you to leave but you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you. You don’t have anything and aren’t even able to leave, even if you wanted to. So they come, they kill your family and they kill you.

    Now imagine there are people in other parts of the world, they have everything and they didn’t even know you, but they consider it served you right.

    This world is fucked up.

      They tell you to leave but you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you.

      Actively block you from leaving and attack you when you try to leave via “safe routes”.

      FTFY

        Hey everyone, this guy is a mod who had previously banned pro Palestine comments a few months back. Neat to see you finally changed your mind on the active genocide.

        Edit: turns out he has not. Scroll down and see him continue to hold that palastinians do not have a right to defend themselves.

          As someone who has friends in Southern Lebanon who have been held at gunpoint by IDF forces and threatened with death, I’m pretty sure you’re confused.

      Can I get a religious war with a side of genocide? Oh, it’s a package deal and I also get free racism? Cool.

    The deafening silence from all the people who were so noisy about gEnOcIdE in October 2024.

        The amount I heard the word “genocide” was much higher in October 2024.

          Because there was a lot more genocide happening in October 2024. I mean hello? The war with Hezbollah and the North Gaza offensives were both in full swing then. Now we’re in a temporary “pause” in the genocide*, so there are less people saying genocide.

          *There’s more genocide happening in the West Bank, but that has always gotten less reporting from Western media because it’s not as flashy.

      I didn’t vote for Harris because Trump didn’t do genocide

      I wonder where all those people are now. Because they were REALLY active leading up to the election (and shortly after).

      I wonder if they realize they were wrong.

      EDIT: Oh, they’re here, just had to scroll more.

      At a glance, no, they don’t seem to be taking responsibility, and even still seem to be taking the moral high ground.

      Which suggests it wasn’t even astroturfing…lol
