Still pretending that there is a 'ceasefire' and a 'peace plan',
rather than the truth:
it's a distraction to enable Israel to consolidate its #EthnicCleansing objectives, in both #Gaza and the #WestBank.

Mairav Zonszein: 30 Ministers and Knesset members say “Gaza is part of Israel” and that true victory is only with the seizing of territory, call on defense minister to allow for a mass event inside destroyed Gaza. The official government push for Israeli annexation of (part of) Gaza has begun.
