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

    But hey, we sure showed Biden with that protest vote. Way to go team. Instead of using continued pressure to bend the party that at least listens somewhat, we now gave Gaza the dictator who gives 0 fucks. High five. /s

    Update: Complain all you want about this take. I’ve been a lefty union member all my life and I got so much shit for saying Biden would not be as bad as Trump for Gaza. I got called Blue MAGA, tankie, and other trash from my own side because I saw it for what it was. Netanyahu wanted Trump to win for a reason. Now y’all want to justify your handing the country to Trump to make a point or give me shit for calling it out. Fuck you right back. I voted Bernie in the past, Biden was never my first choice, but pretending voting for a no chance in hell fake like Jill Stein was a possible alternative is bull shit. We live in a winner take all representative Republic. Until the system is changed, every election is the lesser evil vote. In the mean time, you don’t hand the country to the oligarchy’s mascot and his fascist mob. The people of Gaza will be paying even worse, but now add Ukraine, LGBTQ+, Federal workers, unions, people of color, immigrants, and everyone making under $150,000 a year to those who will suffer worse. We needed to come together to stop Project 2025, but we had to let the perfect be the enemy of the good like always.

      Tell me what Biden or Kamala would have done different? Remember all the red lines that functionally did nothing to US policy?

      It was under biden that, we estimate because we can’t know, that ~500,000 gazans died. It was under biden that we continued to send bombs to israel even as Israel pushed the entire population into a concentration camp next to egypt.

      Gaza was already under a dictator. Way to go Biden and Kamala, instead of giving a single fuck about your electorate loudly told you, you sucked the teet of pro-israel donors and it lost the election.

        You fucks keep spouting this drivel but are weirdly quiet about what’s happening currently. Sure, many more Palestinian children are going to die because of your tantrum but if you just keep throwing the tantrum maybe you won’t have to look at the blood on your hands.

          Because what’s currently happening is ONLY possible because of that Biden and Harris did. It’s liberals that were quiet about genocide occurring because their preferred flavor of fascism was doing it, and you want to talk about blood on your hands?

      We spent over a year using every means of pressure we had to bend the party and all we had to show for it was more billions for Israel. Nothing would have changed if we voted for the party that spent the last year ignoring our demands.

          The ceasefire is still ongoing, despite Israel’s provocations. I know you’re horny for more genocide so you can feel good about being “right” about the lesser evil, but so far the number of dead children has dramatically decreased since Biden was in office.

            but so far the number of dead children has dramatically decreased since Biden was in office.

            The reporting on it has certainly decreased, but I don’t think either you nor I can say this is true with any amount of certainty.

            Besides, “Israel is playing nice now that they have their ace in the White House” isn’t really the big win you make it out to be. Biden continued shipping armaments, Trump is doing that and more as well as actively making plans with Netanyahu for the expulsion and destruction of Gaza.

            The only way we were ever going to fix this from our side of the ocean was by putting a warhead on Netanyahu’s forehead but that was never going to happen with either choice.

              Israel isn’t just playing nice, the ceasefire is ongoing. Hamas wouldn’t play along if it was all fake. Every day Gaza isn’t being turned into rubble is a win and lives are being saved.

              Yes, Israel is doing this because they want to help Trump. That doesn’t mean the ceasefire isn’t a good thing.

              Israel will face justice for its crimes, but that will happen regardless which demon gets elected president of the Great Satan.

                  When the US can no longer protect them. The empire is clearly in decline.

                  In the very land they stole. The Resistance was not defeated, after all.

          Biden floated a plan to displace all the Palestinians in Gaza too, but he was unable to get any Arab country to go along with it.

          Trump will face the same obstacles.

      That’s funny, everyone, everyone know they don’t give a fuck what we have to say. They were willing to lose an election before listening to what we had to say. It was able time people held them accountable for refusing to represent our demands. Liberals refusing to listen gave us another round of Trump

    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

      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

            Thanks! Trump found out the same thing as Biden yesterday; Egypt and Jordan are not accepting the ethnic cleansing. Trump, like Biden, has walked back the plan.

            Same shit. Different Nazi at the helm.

        It is entirely possible that more than one ass hole exists in the world. Having to explicitly name them all would make for a very long post.

            There are way more than 3, even if you just confine yourself to the members of the IDF and don’t look at any of the other factions.
