The mask is off
A Palestinian human-rights advocate would argue —When a sitting Knesset member tours the Gaza perimeter and publicly demands "conquest, expulsion, and settlement" — the textbook elements of ethnic cleansing — and faces no sanction from her coalition, we are no longer dealing with fringe rhetoric. Limor Son Har-Melech sits in Ben-Gvir's Otzma Yehudit, a governing party. She has previously praised a man convicted of murdering a Palestinian family and defended officers accused of raping detainees. Her Knesset has already hosted conferences mapping out Jewish settlements in a depopulated Gaza. The expulsionist program isn't a slip; it is policy advocacy from inside the state, and pretending otherwise is what allows it to keep advancing.
