Well, that sounds like it’s not going to be misused at all. It’s not like they have a history of bombing Palestinian civilian evacuation corridors with white phosphorus or anything. I’m certain this will work out fine!
That was sarcasm, if you couldn’t tell.
So would I be right in summising that this is either a full occupation, or its a move to a one state solution?
Annexation
I'm not sure. They've already said that they're not going to be responsible for things like food, water, fuel, sewage, etc. So either this is a military force occupying a post-apocalyptic wasteland with Mad Max Palestinians in the rubble. Or - my bet is that they're going to take a bunch of Gaza for
lebensrauma DMZ.I mean...one state solution started from occupation, then slowly the illegal settler creep in and drive Palestine out into the sea.
There it is.
Bibi may not get what he wants, but somebody is going to have to keep the peace in the short term, while insuring Hamas doesn't come back.
