Israeli President’s Direct Call to Genocide – Annotated

by Scott Horton Posted on

Israeli President Isaac Herzog: “It is an entire nation out there that is responsible. [No, it’s not a nation, that’s the whole point.] It’s not true, this rhetoric about civilians were not aware, not involved. [Of course it is impossible that 2 million Gazans, half of them minors, could have known about the attack.] It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up. [No they could not have risen up and he knows that. Now not all dying in a failed overthrow attempt to protect Israelis equates to knowing what Hamas is going to do to them and being responsible for it. Nonsense.] They could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup de tat.”

1 Now he acknowledges they could not overthrow Hamas but implies they should all die trying anyway.

2 It’s not a regime. Hamas are nothing but a terrorist militia, trustees in Israel’s Palestinian prison camp.

3 OOPS, he just admitted that the people of Gaza did not choose Hamas, they seized power by force (after a failed Israeli coup against them ruined a power-sharing deal with Fatah). Quick just start blathering “We are at war” since your pathetic rationale for killing helpless civilians is unraveling since you have no more justification than your enemies did last weekend.]
