Ah yes, that classic “concept paper” where your intelligence ministry is just spitballing ideas for an ethnic cleansing as a hypothetical thought experiment.

[–] detalferous@lemm.ee 8 points 8 months ago

Exactly.

This is abhorrent.

Huh, isn't that how the Holocaust started?

I wonder what the final solution will be?

[–] Heresy_generator@kbin.social 28 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

Not really; Generalplan Ost was far, far more brutal even from its conception. While the horrific industrialized efficiency of the camps and gas chambers weren't fully fleshed out yet the Nazis included the idea of exterminating undesirables through mass killings, working them to death, and starving them to death from the start.

Um, before that, they tried to exile them to Europe and north America. What we are seeing is actually a compression of the previous timeline.

[–] Lhianna@feddit.de 6 points 8 months ago

There actually was a plan to exile them to Madagascar but since this wasn't under German control at the time (kinda like Canada isn't under Israel's control) that didn't work out.

Isn't Israel already starving the local population of Gaza? They are also bombing them, not to forget that they do not have access to drinking water.

If Apple and Nike get in on this, we've got all the similarities

Don't forget ~~Coca-Cola~~ Fanta.

The fine ol' solution

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 4 points 8 months ago

I think we’re seeing it.

[–] oDDmON@lemmy.world 53 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Having been victim to one Diaspora, you’d think they’d be loathe to inflict another on someone else.

The report did not say what would become of Gaza once its population is cleared out.

Lebensraum.

[–] happyhippo@feddit.it 24 points 8 months ago

I was accused of being dumb last time I said Israel is a Nazi state. 😌

History repeats itself.

[–] febra@lemmy.world 32 points 8 months ago (2 children)

We have said this from the beginning. Israel is planning a genocide. This is just further proof towards that.

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 18 points 8 months ago

because the actual genocide happening isn't proof enough

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

It's pretty likely given how well this aligns with what what they want, that they probably allowed this to happen at the very least if not had fomented it.

[–] DevCat@lemmy.world 31 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The document's authors deem this alternative to be the most desirable for Israel's security.

Let me fix that for you.

The document's authors deem this alternative to be the most desirable for creating a whole hell of a lot more problems for Israel.

Eventually, those chickens will return home to roost.

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 11 points 8 months ago

Obl warned USA, notes it’s not our freedoms (check out the un report on us), but our terrorizing. Then we got all indignant and invaded Iraq (two Iraqis on the plane, how many Saudis?). Then we act surprised about Daesh, never mind mujahadeen and taliban.

[–] irdc@derp.foo 20 points 8 months ago

Oh hey, how about Madagascar?

[–] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 13 points 8 months ago

Is it really in Israel's interest to create a diaspora of Palestinians across Western countries? Do they want to see them form their own lobbies to influence Middle East policy in a couple decades down the line? I don't think that's the worst option, perhaps that would balance the tableboard.

[–] Backspacecentury@kbin.social 7 points 8 months ago

Canada has a killer track record for housing dissident diaspora communities. Just ask India.

Terrance and Phillip will never be the same.
