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.

Ffs "this phase of the genocide" happy, point still stands, Biden enabled Israel to bomb Gaza into obliteration and trumps finishing the job and all Liberals have to say is "i told you so"

I know Israel has been carrying out a slow genocide for the past couple decades but they haven't ramped up to this level since the Nakba. If you think this is the same as anything pre October 7th, post 73 you need to look at the pictures coming out of gaza.

Did I say Biden did nothing wrong?

Here's a challenge: try to discuss this topic without resorting to straw men. In my experience, on this site, every single discussion about this topic has ended up this way.

"Biden supported the genocide" is a factual statement that i agree with.

"Biden started the genocide" is fucking stupid hyperbolic partisan cheerleading.

And trumps not going to finish it, it was a play on words for brevity, see the edit. Both of the actions were/will be done by Israel with the support and weapons of the u.s.

No one seems to be calling out the trump line as hyperbolic partisan cheerleading. Or any of the other comments on here saying trump is committing genocide.
