Israel has sparked global outrage after dropping leaflets over the besieged Gaza Strip, warning Palestinians to either cooperate with its forces or face forced displacement or eradication. The messages, written in Arabic, carried explicit threats, including the chilling statement: “The world map will not change if all the people of Gaza cease to exist.”

The move, condemned as a psychological warfare tactic, has intensified concerns over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, with many seeing the leaflets as an open admission of ethnic cleansing.

The threats also reference a so-called “Trump plan”, aligning with recent remarks by US President Donald Trump. who suggested the mass expulsion of Gaza’s population to neighbouring countries. The posters featured images of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity and wanted by the IC

    Harris and Biden prioritized continuing the genocide over beating Trump. They are to blame for this just as much as Trump

      My stance was “Trump is going to make a lot of things worse, including the ongoing genocide in Gaza. You’re either for Trump or against Trump, and if you’re a single issue voter, you’re either voting in favour of, or against, making the genocide worse”.

      Some people told me that the Democrats are definitely in favour of the genocide, but who knows what Trump would do! I told them everyone else knows. They told me it’s impossible to know because there was no genocide during Trump’s first term, but there was during Biden’s first term. So Trump is a safer bet for single issue voters.

      Regardless, single issue (non-)voters have succeeded in making life much worse for Americans and Palestinians.

        We would still be supporting Israel with Biden in place. The only difference is there would be a few “we are very concerned” statements from the White House press secretary instead of Trump’s reality TV show statements. But in the background, the same number of MK84 2,000lb bombs are being transported by the same military vehicles and they blow up on top of the same people.
