Nothing I can say will add to the significance of this heartbreaking interview with Dr. Haddad.
Remember, his family has been slaughtered with American weaponry.

Anthony Lowenstein: The Majority of Israeli Jews Support the Removal of Palestinians from Gaza
Israeli Jews have always viewed the native Palestinian population as a dangerous “demographic threat” to the maintenence of a Jewish majority in the Jewish state.
Investigative journalist Anthony Lowenstein discusses the long history of Israel’s attempts to rid the country of Palestinians, by hook or by crook.
New Poll: 83% of Israelis Favor the “Voluntary Immigration” of the People of Gaza
In the following clip from Breaking Point News, Krystal Ball offers a good summary of recent developments in the assault against Gaza.
Be sure to watch for the recent Israeli national poll showing that 83% of the Jewish people in Israel favor the “voluntary immigration” all the people from Gaza.
I am not sure how anyone can consider such an action to be voluntary, given the fact that Israel has flattened their homes, turned the region into a vast parking lot, and destroyed any semblance of Palestinian civilization in the area.
Certainly every eventual “emigrant” will have a rifle to his or her back motivating their “voluntarism.”
But, then, we should never underestimate the delusional power of Zionism to turn reality on its head, causing its adherents to imagine that black is white and up is down.
Also wait for the statistics demonstrating that Israel’s bombardment of Gaza has been the most destructive war of the 21st century, by far:
More Calls for Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing on Israeli Television
“No one but Jews can inhabit this land (of Gaza)”:
“Every baby in Gaza is an enemy”
“Watchdog Submits Evidence of Israeli Executions of Gaza Civilians”
Common Dreams has published an article by investigative journalist, Brett Wilkins laying out the many accusations against Israeli soldiers charging them with mass executions of Palestinian civilians, men, women and children.
The article is titled,
Euro-Med Monitor documented nine separate cases in which Israeli troops executed Palestinians—including numerous women and children—during the ongoing invasion of Gaza.
A prominent European human rights group on Monday submitted a report to the International Criminal Court and United Nations special rapporteurs documenting “dozens of cases of field executions carried out by the Israeli army in the Gaza Strip.”
Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor, a Geneva-based nonprofit, requested the ICC and U.N. immediately investigate “the widespread killing operations carried out by Israeli forces targeting Palestinian civilians, especially the field executions and physical liquidations in the Gaza Strip.”
In addition to ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan, Euro-Med Monitor sent copies of its preliminary findings to Maurice Tydball Benz, the U.N. special rapporteur on extrajudicial or arbitrary executions; Francesca Albanese, the special rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967; and Navanethem Pillay, head of the Investigative Committee on the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
“Nearly 10 days after the Israeli army began its ground attack in the Gaza Strip on October 27, the Israeli army carried out dozens of executions and direct physical liquidations against civilians as part of its all-out military campaign that started on October 7 in retaliation for the armed attack that Palestinian factions carried out in Israeli settlements surrounding the Gaza Strip,” Euro-Med Monitor said in a statement.
The group’s report lists nine separate instances in which it says Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops executed Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Victims include multiple elderly couples shot and left to bleed to death after being forced from their homes in Gaza City last week; a mentally ill man shot in his home in the Jabalia refugee camp; six members of the al-Khaldi family shot dead during an Israeli raid on their home; and nine forcibly displaced civilians including women and children who were massacred while seeking shelter in the Shadia Abu Ghazala School near Jabalia on December 13.
“The Israeli soldiers came in and opened fire,” one unidentified witness said of the school attack. “They took all men, then entered classrooms and opened fire on a woman and all the children with her,” including “newborn children.”
“The Israeli soldiers executed those innocent families point-blank,” she added.

A Former Member of the Knesset Declares on National Television: They Must All Be Exterminated!
The video speaks for itself. This is a former member of the Israeli Knesset (Israel’s parliament).
I wish I could say that this man’s speech is an outlier. But I have now seen far too many video clips declaring the same message from average citizens and government officials alike to remain that naive.
Israeli Minister Avi Dichter Admits Israel’s Goal is Ethnic Cleansing
Avi Dichter is Israel’s Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development. In this interview he candidly admits that the final goal of Israel’s bombardment campaign is the ethnic cleansing of the entire Palestinian population from Gaza.
Nakba is the Arabic word for “catastrophe.” It is the standard reference to the first ethnic cleansing of Palestine during the war of 1947-49 when upwards of 750,000 Palestinians were driven from their homes.
To refer to the current war in Gaza as a second Nakba is to admit that Israel intends ethnic cleansing once more.
This war is about vengence, destruction and the elimination of as many Palestinians as possible. This ethnic cleansing will continue apace in the West Bank as it proceeds in Gaza.
86 Year Old Palestinian Woman Tells Her Story of Ethnic Cleansing in 1948
The city of Jaffa was a major metropolitan area when it was attacked by Jewish forces on May 13, 1948, two days before the end of the British Mandate over Palestine.
After three weeks of siege and attacks, Jaffa fell to Jewish troops. Those troops immediately began the expulsion, the ethnic cleansing, of Jaffa’s Palestinian population.
By the time they were finished, 50,000 people from Jaffa alone — all of them Palestinians — had been expelled, pushed into the Mediterranean Sea, or sent packing among the streams of destitute refugees looking for safety.
Many of these refugees died along the road. They were death marches.
Ebtihaj is now 86 years old. In April 1948 she was just a little girl, but she well remembers being forced from her home and expelled from Jaffa.
She vividly recalls the Jewish soldiers who shot and killed her unarmed brother as he watched them drive into town from his doorway.
