That is the definition of ethnic cleansing - rounding them up and moving them off the land you want.
Are you SURE you educated yourself on the difference between genocide and ethnic cleansing? Positive?
I don't defend a charge of genocide - sorry if I was unclear.
You are in no position to cry about sources. You rely on sources you admit you distrust, and you distrust sources you pretend are reliable (Like when you blasted Haaretz for telling the truth and ran to an agenda source to rebut the truth).
The hard fact is, you want us to believe YOU over the UN and over every human rights group on Planet Earth. You want us to believe YOU over the collective voice of the entire Orthodox Jewish religion, which opposes the IDF for its apartheid and ethnic cleansing. You want us to believe YOU (and your hastily googled agenda source) over Haaretz and the Jerusalem Times.
You CLEARLY cannot distinguish between ethnic cleansing and genocide, and you CLEARLY believe that people not dying in greater numbers than they are is not ethnic cleansing - and this, in the very FACE of the fact that you openly admit they are being squeezed onto those very reservations. You even repeatedly NAMED the reservations, while denying that ethnic cleansing is occurring. You CONTINUALLY conflate genocide - a NUMBERS game - with ethnic cleansing - a LAND game.
So, you obviously just do not understand the definition of ethnic cleansing - notwithstanding I have given you the definition. Just take a **** breath, buddy. The IDF is doing to the Palis what we did to the injuns: Putting them on reservations and pretending they are self-governing, while denying them the wherewithal to trade with other nations and establish themselves as a nation-state, and while de facto governing them from a distance.
You might want to learn a little of what Ethnic Cleansing is yourself, as Israel removed the IDF, Settlements and disengaged from Gaza in 2005.... Tell us what Ethnic Cleansing had been going on there since that time? Tell us how their territory shrank --- let me help you there Yassir, it didn't..
Oh, I'm well aware of the difference, the problem is have the idiots on your side are claiming the Arabs are being pushed / displaced from the land (Ethnic Cleansing) --- the rest are insisting the population is being killed off of it (Genocide)...
The Israelis were more than fine to not be bothered with Gaza at all, and had no desire to administer the Strip.. If the goal was to take that land the IDF would have remained, the Gazans exiled, and Settlers would have taken over,, But Hamas changed that on October 7th.... And as I said, you can bet Israel will trim a little more land from around the edges under the guise of providing a larger security buffer to separate the Gazans from Israelis..
