Leaked: Israeli Plan To Ethnically Cleanse Gaza

Originally published by The Cradle

Israeli culture magazine Mekovit published on 28 October a leaked document issued by Israel’s Ministry of Intelligence recommending the occupation of Gaza and total transfer of its 2.3 million inhabitants to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.

The document, issued on 13 October, identifies a plan to transfer all residents of the Gaza Strip to North Sinai as the preferred option among three alternatives regarding the future of the Palestinians in Gaza at the end of the current war between Israel and the Hamas-led Palestinian resistance.

The document recommends that Israel evacuate the Gazan population to Sinai during the war, establish tent cities and new cities in northern Sinai to accommodate the deported population, and then create a closed security zone stretching several kilometers inside Egypt. The deported Palestinians would not be allowed to return to any areas near the Israeli border.

The existence of the document does not necessarily indicate that its recommendations are being implemented by Israel’s security establishment.

The Ministry of Intelligence, headed by Gila Gamliel of the Likud party, does not control any of Israel’s intelligence agencies, but independently prepares studies and policy papers, which are distributed for consideration by the government and its security bodies.

However, recent statements by Israeli government officials and actions by the Israeli army in Gaza suggest the plan is indeed being implemented. Since 7 October, Israeli officials have repeatedly issued warnings to Palestinians to move to southern Gaza in advance of a looming ground invasion.

Israel has imposed a total siege on Gaza, cutting off food, water, fuel, and electricity. The siege, combined with intense Israeli bombing that has killed over 8,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children, threatens to make Gaza uninhabitable.

An official at the Ministry of Intelligence confirmed that the ten-page document is authentic but “was not supposed to reach the media,” Mekovit noted.

According to a right-wing activist, the document from the Ministry of Intelligence was leaked by a member of Likud. Leaking the document was an attempt to find out whether “the public in Israel is ready to accept ideas of a transfer from Gaza.”

The document unequivocally and explicitly recommends carrying out a transfer of civilians from Gaza as the desired outcome of the war.

The transfer plan is divided into several phases: in the first phase, the population in Gaza must be forced to move to southern Gaza, while Israeli air strikes will focus on targets in northern Gaza.

In the second phase, the Israeli army’s ground entry into Gaza will begin, which will lead to the occupation of the entire strip, from north to south, and the “cleansing of the underground bunkers from Hamas fighters.”

At the same time as the Gaza Strip is occupied, the citizens of Gaza will move to Egyptian territory and will be prevented from returning permanently.

“It is important to leave the traffic lanes towards the south usable, to allow the evacuation of the civilian population towards Rafah,” the document states.

The document recommends beginning a dedicated campaign that will “motivate” Gazans “to agree to the plan,” and make them give up their land.

Gazan should be convinced that “Allah made sure that you lost this land because of the leadership of Hamas – there is no choice but to move to another place with the help of Your Muslim brothers,” the document reads.

Further, the plan states the government must launch a public relations campaign that will promote the transfer program to western states in a way that does not promote hostility to Israel or damage its reputation. The deportation of the population from Gaza must be presented as a necessary humanitarian measure to receive international support. Such a deportation could be justified if it will lead to “fewer casualties among the civilian population compared to the expected number of casualties if they remain,” the document says.

The document also states that the US should be leveraged to pressure Egypt to take in the residents of Gaza, and to encourage other European countries, and in particular Greece, Spain and Canada, to help take in and settle the refugees who will be evacuated from Gaza.

Finally, the document claims that if the population of Gaza remains, there will be “many Arab deaths” during the expected occupation of Gaza by the Israeli army, and this will damage Israel’s international image even more than the deportation of the population. For all these reasons, the recommendation of the Ministry of Intelligence is to promote the transfer of all Palestinians in Gaza to Sinai permanently.

i believe this theory is a red herring. i must admit that on oct 7th i was leaning towards this theory myself but based on how things have been developing id say a wider scale conflict is the objective.

oh and leaked documents are always released on purpose.

or leaked documents may indicate a rift within the government and special
organizations within the israeli government where not everyone agrees with the status quo.

Edgar Zetar

agree on that, they leaked by a reasson

John Wallace

both. they want to take all or most of gaza which then allows them to claim full rights to the oil and gas offshore as well as attack iran and finish off syria. plus clear out any other problems such as hezbollah. the us is there for a reason parked in the red sea out of reach of hezbollah.

to the contrary, they employ nazi goebbels’ misinfo propagandist tactics. like blaming the opposition for what you are doing. “magnifying and repeating lies until the become truth.” “the bigger the lie the easier it is to believe” etc etc. so the chutzpah/ hypocrisy knows no bounds! also see orwell 1984 doublethink – doublespeak

Bird of Prey

overarching orwellian doublethink: warmonger us refuses to accuse israel of war crimes, was quick to do so with russia

“as a result of the israeli ground operation, the gaza strip may disappear from the map of the world not just as a legal entity, but as a region with its inhabitants. it is hard to predict whether someone will be willing to rebuild it and whether the region is going to be suitable for life at all.” – retired fsb major general alexander mikhailov

that’s what a lot of western retired generals/ colonels are also saying, the ones not directly sponsored by the u.s military industrial complex after their retirement.

i’m sure egypt will love it to get presented the bill of israel’s desire to cleans the gaza strip and having to take in millions of angry radicalized people and house them in a new gaza strip in the sinai.

you don’t have to be a smartass to foresee where this is going on to. israel decided to enter into the cold war of xxi century. they will take all over palestine, then lebanon, then the south of syria and later project power to become the hegemon of the region. they have the bless of us empire and the exceptionals; this is a broader campaign, is the prelude of bigger wars in the middle east region, and us empire wanted to take out russia from syria so they will have to move back

good reason to assume this is but part a. imperial america’s apparently substantial involvement suggests an alliance to destroy all opposition to american/zionist aims in the middle east by expelling the palestinians from the gaza ghetto and the west bank, destroying hezbollah, then overthrowing syria’s government, then completely isolating iran, thus creating eretz israel and ensuring american regional dominance.

given that netanyahu has the motive of a somewhat messianic vision, the means of the largest military in the middle east, and the opportunity given by all his opponents agreeing to follow wherever he may lead plus a frightened public eager for “security” at any cost to others, he would seem in an unusually good position to create the eretz israel sought by his sect.
