Ben Gvir 'Happy' to Live in Gaza After Genocide
The Biden administration has supported Israel throughout its genocidal campaign
Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel's extremist national security minister who owns Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said Tuesday that Israelis should occupy Gaza after the war and he would be happy to live there.
He spoke to Israeli news outlet Kikar HaShabbat and said the final step is to encourage the “voluntary emigration” of Palestinians before the occupation, according to a translation by Middle East Eye.
“If the emigration happens, and hundreds of thousands leave, you’ll be able to bring more and more and more people in,” he said.
He was asked if he would move there.
"Yes, why not?” he responded. He said he would be very happy to live there.
Ben Gvir told The Wall Street Journal earlier in the war that he dreamed of Donald Trump becoming president again
“If Trump was in power, the U.S. conduct would be completely different,” he said.
Ben-Gvir represents the fringe that has become mainstream in Israel since the beginning of the year. NPR noted that 15 years ago, he was convicted in Israeli court for inciting racism and supporting an anti-Arab movement which Israel has outlawed as a terrorist organization.
