Israel's New Gaza Operation Should Be Called 'Chariots of Genocide'
May 14, 2025
About 70 people from dawn to noon on Wednesday. Almost
twice the number of those killed in the massacre at Kibbutz Nir Oz. 22 of them
were children, and 15 were women. The previous evening, 23 were killed in a
hospital.
Operation Gideon's
Chariots has yet to
begin, and the chariots of genocide are already warming their engines.
How will we call this massacre, so indiscriminate and
pointless, even before the big operation has begun? 23 killed in the bombing of
a hospital – one of the most serious war crimes – just to try and kill
Mohammed Sinwar, the
latest devil, with nine bunker buster bombs – everything to provide Yedioth
Ahronoth in their lust for the main headline: "In his brother's
footsteps."
The readers loved it, Israelis loved it, no one came
out against it on Wednesday.
They made peace in Riyadh, and in Gaza they massacred.
It's hard to think of a more grating contrast than this, between the scenes in
Riyadh and those in Jabalya on Wednesday.
Children's bodies being carried by their parents, the
bulldozer trying to clear a way for the ambulance and being blown up from the
air, the people burrowing in the ruins of the hospital searching for their
loved ones – all this in the face of lifting sanctions from Syria and the hope
for a new future.
Nothing, not even the elimination of another Sinwar,
can justify the indiscriminate bombing of a hospital. This unwavering truth has
been totally forgotten here by now. Everything is normal, everything is
justified and approved, even the attack on the intensive care ward in the
European Hospital in Khan Yunis is a mitzvah.
No choice exists but to cry out again: You cannot
attack hospitals – and not schools that have been turned into shelters, either
– even if the strategic air command of Hamas is hiding underneath them. Even if
Sinwar is there, whose kill is so pointless.
Is there anything left we can do in Gaza that will be
seen in Israel as morally and legally unacceptable? 100 dead children? A
thousand women for Sinwar the brother? It was necessary to eliminate him, they
explained, because he was an "obstacle to a hostage deal."
We've even lost our shame. The sole obstacle to a
hostage deal sits in Jerusalem, his name is
Benjamin Netanyahu,
along with his fascist partners, and no one can even conceive that it's
legitimate to harm them to remove the obstacle.
What happened on Wednesday in Gaza is just a promo for
what will occur in the coming months, if no one stops Israel. The further
Donald Trump's colossal campaign in the Gulf advances, the pistol that will
stop Israel has yet to be seen.
When supposedly there was still a purpose, when the
goals were seemingly clear, when the human need to punish and take revenge for
October 7 was still understandable, when it still seemed that Israel knew what
it wanted at all; it was still possible somehow to accept the mass killing and
destruction.
But no longer. Now, when it's clear Israel has no goal
and no plan, there is no longer any way to justify what happened in Gaza on
Tuesday night.
No Israeli leader opened their mouth, not a single
one. The left's hope, Yair Golan, on a good day calls to end the war, and like
him, tens of thousands of determined protesters.
They want to end the war to bring the hostages home.
They are also worried about the lives of the soldiers who will fall in vain.
But what about Gaza? What about its sacrifice? How
have we reached a situation in which no Zionist politician can come out in its
defense? Not one righteous man in Sodom, not a single one.
The sights from there once again scorched the soul on
Wednesday, once again body carts, once again children in a long line of body
bags on the floor, here lie their bodies, and once again the heartbreaking
weeping of parents for their daughters and sons.
About 100 people were killed in Gaza on Wednesday.
Almost all of them innocent, except for their being Palestinians who live in
the Gaza Strip. They were killed by Israeli soldiers. This is their appetizer
for the campaign their military aspires to – and we remain silent.
