Netanyahu Invokes 'Chilling Metaphor' When Describing 'Total Victory' in Gaza: Columnist

Israeli leader has been intentionally vague about what he wants to happen in Gaza.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who needs war to continue his grip on power, was asked last week about what his idea of total victory in Gaza would look like, and he gave a “chilling metaphor” to describe his intentions, a columnist for The Washington Post wrote.

NETANYAHU IS NOT ‘MR. SECURITY,’ HE’S ‘MR. BULLSHIT’

Ishaan Tharoor wrote about how Netanyahu rejected Hamas’s peace offer as delusional and seeks total victory, which he said is in “touching distance.” Netanyahu has been vague about what total victory would mean and asked for clarification.

Tharoor wrote that Netanyahu “invoked a chilling metaphor, citing how one smashes glass “into small pieces, and then you continue to smash it into even smaller pieces and you continue hitting them.”

It seems clear that Israel will continue to bomb and starve the Palestinians in Gaza until they are all killed or are taken in as refugees in another country.
