Statements by former Israeli intelligence chief Haliva reflect a systematic mentality justifying the mass killing of children and civilians. Analysts see Haliva’s statements as reflecting a systematic policy that justifies mass killing of children and civilians, acknowledging a policy of collective punishment forbidden internationally. This genocidal rhetoric coincides with a plan to fully occupy Gaza City, where Israeli radio revealed that Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir will approve a plan including besieging the city and displacing hundreds of thousands of its residents. According to Hebrew sources, bringing tents into the southern Gaza Strip under the title “humanitarian arrangements” is merely a cover for a wide displacement operation. Hamas warned that this represents “an announcement of the start of a new wave of brutal genocide and criminal displacement,” highlighting the humanitarian risks facing Palestinians.

In an interview with i24 channel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu renewed his commitment to the vision of so-called “Greater Israel,” extending from the Nile River to the Euphrates River. This ideological dimension explains the connection between the ongoing massacres and displacement in Gaza with a larger expansionist plan that goes beyond the Gaza Strip to a regional project intended to be imposed by force. Hamas sees these developments as evidence that “what is happening in Gaza is not isolated from the West Bank,” but is part of an integrated Zionist project based on expulsion, uprooting, and Judaization of holy sites. The movement called on Arab and Islamic countries to act to confront these plans. Meanwhile, the occupation continues its war with direct American support, while the United Nations limits itself to warnings and statements without any practical measures.

This situation is seen as implicit partnership in the crime by providing international cover for impunity. Linking Haliva’s statements, Zamir’s plan, and Netanyahu’s vision reveals that what is happening in Gaza is not just “field violations,” but a state policy based on a trilogy: genocide as a deterrent tool, forced displacement as a demographic solution, and regional expansion as a strategic goal. With the death toll exceeding 61,000, most of them children and women, Palestinians find themselves facing a new version of the Nakba, while the region and the world stand at a crossroads between confronting this project or accepting it as a fait accompli.
