Israeli PM criticises leaders after their call for halt to Gaza offensive and restrictions on humanitarian aid

Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron and Mark Carney of “emboldening Hamas”, after they called for a halt to Israel’s military offensive and an end to restrictions on humanitarian aid in Gaza.

Earlier this week, the leaders of the UK, France and Canada condemned the Israeli government’s “egregious” actions in Gaza, warning that the UK and allies would take “concrete actions” unless Netanyahu changed course.

In a post on X on Thursday evening, the Israeli prime minister said Hamas wanted to “destroy the Jewish state” and “annihilate the Jewish people”.

    They are systematically destroying Gaza, that’s their plan. They want to make it impossible for anyone to return to Gaza, so that Hamas or the idea of Palestinian Gaza can’t continue. Aside from starving the people, they are literally going street by street and leaving nothing but empty desert.

    There are singular people in Caterpillar D9 dozers who are posting about destroying 2-3 apartment complexes per day. One person. Think about how long it takes to build an apartment complex, and how much of your life is in your apartment, and what would happen if you just lost all of it one day.

    Another favoured tactic is to just fill an M113 with explosives to the brim, and blow it up to flatten a whole street all at once. It is not even a secret that the IDF has it as unofficial policy that if they enter a building in Gaza, they blow it up or burn it down.

    Whole towns are destroyed now. Not like “in ruins” destroyed, but “nothing but the desert” destroyed, even the rubble is flattened. This is going to end with millions of dead and refugees as it stands now, angry at a world that let Israel completely erase their lives with impunity.
