The Israelis who Campaign to Occupy Gaza January 22, 2024 Unipro2013main Middle East Conflict 2024, News, World News </p> <h2>The Israelis who campaign to occupy Gaza | DW News</h2> <p> In Israel, a small but determined movement has emerged in the aftermath of the October 7th terror attacks calling for the return of Jewish settlements to Gaza. Some cite security, others ideology. Their demands have been echoed by two far-right ministers in Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir who said there should be a return to Gush Katif – the largest block of settlements Israel maintained in Gaza until Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s unilaterally pulled out of the strip in 2005. The ministers’ statements have drawn international condemnation and Netanyahu has called the idea “unrealistic”, but his government has not yet laid out an official plan for Gaza after the war.</p> <p>DW’s Aya Ibrahim speaks to:<br /> Daniella Weiss, an Israeli settlement leader who lives in the occupied West Bank.<br /> Noga Tarnopolsky a Jerusalem-based independent journalist covering Israeli politics.<br /> Ohad Tal, a member of Israel’s Parliament the Knesset from Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s Religious Zionism party.<br /> Datya Itzhaki, an Israeli tour guide who lived in Gush Katif for 21 years and now hopes she can go back.<br /> Avner Franklin, tour guide at the Gush Katif Museum in Jerusalem.</p> <p>Chapters:<br /> 00:00 Daniella Weiss: The Israeli activist determined to resettle Gaza<br /> 03:00 Noga Tarnopolsky: The damage caused by the campaign to return to Gaza<br /> 05:16 Avner Franklin: Israel’s recent history in the Gaza strip<br /> 07:23 Ohad Tal and Datya Itzhaki: Between security and ideology, the arguments for a return to Gush Katif<br /> 13:36 Two state solution?<br /> 16:47 Noga Tarnpoolsky on Netanyahu’s ‘radicalisation’</p> <p>Credit to : DW News</p> <p> Please support our Sponsors here :
