Influential Israeli national security leader makes the case for genocide in Gaza
Lets Not be Intimidated by the World
Giora Eiland, Yedioth Ahronoth, November 19, 2023
"The way to win the war faster and at a lower cost for us requires a system collapse on the other side and not the mere killing of more Hamas fighters. The international community warns us of a humanitarian disaster in Gaza and of severe epidemics. We must not shy away from this, as difficult as that may be. After all, severe epidemics in the south of the Gaza Strip will bring victory closer and reduce casualties among IDF soldiers. And no, this is not about cruelty for crueltys sake since we dont support the suffering of the other side as an end but as a means."
