Netanyahu Lays Out “Day After Hamas" Plan for Continued Absolute Domination of Gaza
Lead StoryConflict
On February 22, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu formally announced to the world that the final destruction of Gaza and last ground assault against the Palestinian people in Gaza will begin on March 11. He did throw in that if Hamas were to surrender all hostages and put down their arms by that point that his Israeli Defense Forces might themselves stand down, but few believe Hamas would give up their only negotiation power and trust the Israelis with turning over what is left to Gaza at that point. To date, Israelis have proven only that they are pathological liars and can never be trusted.
Then yesterday, February 23, Netanyahu announced his vision of what will happen to Gaza after the last battle against the Palestinians there is over. It will become more than ever the “open-air prison” Israel’s critics have said it already is, with Israel’s military controlling every aspect of daily life through enforced occupation and the rejection of any ability by the Palestinians who remain to govern even their businesses, hospitals, and schools, let alone make decisions to manage city or regional matters in any way. Given the Zionist's extreme cruelty and Satanic barbarity to date, Gaza will be far worse than any Nazi concentration camp.
The outline of Netanyahu’s War Cabinet’s vision of what comes next is being referred to as Netanyahu’s “The Day After Hamas” document. According to officials at the prime minister’s office, “It was distributed to the security cabinet members as the basis for discussion on the subject.” It was subsequently provided to news media and certain other corrupted governments including the United States.
Though much of what will happen will depend on circumstances and how easily Israel thinks they can execute some of the most revenge-oriented of their plans, the Jerusalem government provided the following points as an outline of what to expect going forward, probably beginning around the end of March or early April:
As a starting point, Israel says unequivocally that for now there will be no ceasefire in the fight against Hamas and the Palestinian people in Gaza.
“The IDF will continue the war until its goals are achieved: the destruction of Hamas and the Islamic Jihad’s military capabilities and governmental infrastructure, the return of the hostages, and the prevention of any threats emanating from the Gaza Strip,” it explained.
After that is accomplished, Israel’s military forces will embed themselves in Gaza, semi-permanently it appears, with a mission they say is to demilitarize the region once and for all. The intent in doing this, they say, is to exterminate what is left of Hamas in such a way that it will have no opportunity to reform.
The IDF will, it says, “maintain operational freedom of action in the entire Gaza Strip, without a time limit, to prevent the renewal of terrorism and to thwart threats from Gaza.”
Besides demilitarizing all of Gaza, the “Day After Hamas” declaration says that Israel will have “security control over the entire area west of [the] Jordan [River], including the Gaza border area, to prevent the strengthening of terrorist elements in the Palestinian Authority and the Gaza Strip and to thwart threats [from that region] against Israel.”
As part of its plans, insane Israel will introduce what it calls “a comprehensive de-radicalization program for all religious, educational and welfare institutions in the Gaza Strip.” Regardless of the language Netanyahu’s government may use to describe what it is doing, this is all about re-programming those who remain and changing the educational system to eliminate any references to the rights of the Palestinian people while elevating Zionist principles to the highest priority. Such a social engineering program worked well for China with its Uygher population, but Israel is not China.
Israel will seize the border with Egypt, which is a direct violation of what of the primary peace agreements with Egypt dating back to the original Camp David Accords signed off in 1978 with then Israeli Prime Minister Menachim Begin and President Anwar Sadat of Egypt. Israel claims it will do so “as much as possible” in cooperation with Egypt, but considering that President Sisi of Egypt has already put Israel on notice that its plans to control the Philidelphi Corridor between Gaza and Egypt violates past deals, Israel is already putting the world on notice that it will not listen to any contrary opinions by Egypt. Sisi is believed to be firmly under the control of Israel and hasn't taken any actions to date that would dispel that notion.
In taking control of the border with Egypt, Israel plans to insert restricted access or “buffer” zones on both sides of the border with Egypt, which it says will block smuggling and prevent any military operations from crossing into Gaza. Note that this means Israel will be seizing more than just the border with Egypt; it will also be seizing control of territory on the Egyptian side, but claim it is their right because Egypt refused to cooperate.
Israel will complete its plan to shut down in-country operations of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency, or UNRWA, the primary agency responsible for funneling aid to Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, and in refugee areas outside the country. Israel has been floating accusations now for weeks that UNRWA was involved in the October 7 invasion of Hamas. It has also expanded those accusations to perhaps a few hundred of the over 13,000 UNRWA workers in Gaza as being complicit in the October 7 raid, and now says the agency as a whole is responsible for acting as an agent of Hamas and helping spread hate and anger towards the Jewish people.
The Israeli government document released yesterday said about this that it “will work to stop UNRWA activities in the Gaza Strip and replace them with responsible international aid agencies.”
Wiping Out the UNRWA will mean far more than just cutting out this distribution outlet for aid to Palestinians in Gaza. It will eliminate much of the aid money itself and allow Israel to cease providing any reasonable level of support for the Palestinians. The UNRWA currently assists an estimated 5.9 million people in Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Gaza, the West Bank, and east Jerusalem.
Further, while rebuilding of Gaza is still something that Israel says it will do, it says that any plans for the “restoration of the Strip will only be possible after the demilitarization is completed and the de-radicalization process begins.” As to who will pay for it, Israel expects it will “be financed and led by countries acceptable to Israel.” Based on that, expect Arab countries to be locked out of the process completely and the American taxpayers forced to pay a considerable part of the bill for that reconstruction, with Israel skimming off a large portion for itself.
Another part of Israel’s plans after the war with Hamas is over is to eliminate any negotiations on behalf of the Palestinians which are not orchestrated by and conducted with Israel itself. There will no longer be any intermediary parties such as from Qatar and Egypt, such as are currently ongoing in the futile hope there could be a ceasefire before Israel completes its final destruction of Gaza.
On that point, the document also warns that, “Israel outright rejects international dictates regarding a permanent settlement with the Palestinians.“
The last major aspect of Israel’s plan is to once and for all halt any conversation about the Palestinian people being granted their own independent state, as part of a “two-state solution”.
“Israel will continue to oppose the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. Such recognition in the wake of the October 7 massacre would give a huge reward to unprecedented terrorism and prevent any future peace settlement,” the government document states.
Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office says these principles for what a world in Gaza will be like after the last Palestinian is dead, subjugated, or pushed out were “synchronized with the Americans”.
In Brazil, where U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken was attending the G20 summit, Blinken attempted to claim there could be some less brutal steps taken by Israel after the war is over in a statement he made late yesterday.
“There are certain basic principles that we set out many months ago that we feel are very important when it comes to Gaza’s future, including that it cannot be a platform for terrorism, there should be no Israeli reoccupation in Gaza, the size of the Gaza Strip should not be reduced,” he said in a press conference in Buenos Aires. “So we want to make sure that any plan that emerges is consistent with those principles.”
It was in the same press conference that Blinken also declared Israel’s latest settlements in the West Bank, which are further displacing Palestinians by force there, are “inconsistent with international law.”
“Our administration maintains firm opposition to settlement expansion,” Blinken explained. “In our judgment, this only weakens — it doesn’t strengthen — Israel’s security.”
There is little evidence that Netanyahu or anyone else in his War Cabinet will listen to what Blinken and the White House are saying about Israeli’s plans. That is especially so as there is still no statement from Team-Biden that they will pull the plug on the supply of weapons and munitions to assist Israel in its slaughter in Gaza. Biden's cabinet is essentially run from Tel Aviv and consists almost entirely of Zionists.
Nabil Abu Rudeina, a spokesman for Mahmoud Abbas, impotent head of the Palestinian Authority, spoke strongly against Netanyahu’s plans but also without any ability on their own to stop Israel from proceeding forward.
“The plans proposed by Netanyahu are aimed at continuing Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories and preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state,” he said.
“Israel will not succeed in its attempts to change the geographical and demographic reality in the Gaza Strip,” the spokesperson declared, while providing no evidence as to how that statement might become a reality.
The extreme delusion of Israelis means that a protracted war is the only option. Most of humanity knows what it took to stop the Nazis and imperial Japanese during WW II.
