“Israel’s far-right national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has made another shocking statement calling for genocide of Palestinians. In a podcast, he said that Israeli forces should ‘kill 30 or 40 people in Gaza every night’ and go beyond ‘those who pose a danger at that particular moment.’ He advocated for building Jewish settlements throughout the entirety of the Gaza Strip and called for the permanent, engineered mass emigration of the Palestinian population out of Gaza to other countries, while stating that ‘terrorists’ should not be allowed to emigrate but rather be killed ‘one by one.’ … The remarks are the latest in a long record of extreme statements from Ben-Gvir, who sits in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition government and controls Israel’s police and prison services.” (08/17/26)
