Showing Original Post only (View all)Likud Finally Admits They Want A Buffer Zone In Gaza [View all]
When the IDF was telling Palestinians to go to the South, where they would be "safe" and "out of harm's way", which was a LIE, they also told them they could return to their homes after the military operations were over, which was another LIE.
Instead, the Likud intends to construct a 'buffer zone' in Northern Gaza, which means millions of Palestinians will never be able to go back home.
Mark Regev, senior adviser to the Israeli prime minister, and a member of the War Cabinet:
Yes, I believe there will be a buffer zone. There needs to be, after what we have been through, yes.
