And still people make surprised Pikachu faces when we call Israel a white supremacist settler-colonialist state.

It's Netanyahu's whole plan in a nutshell ... raze it to the ground, then let rich Israeli's buy up the land and leave nothing for Palestinians.

There was a conspiracy theory that showed a proposed canal that will go right through Gaza (the Ben Gurion canal) that seeks to divert some of the traffic from the Suez canal.

That seems pretty bonkers, with the barest minimum knowledge of geography.

Like, look at a map level of bonkers.

Not too bonkers - if you cut through Gaza, run south, between Beersheba and the Egyptian border and continue in a straight line parallel to the border you hit the Gulf of Aqaba.

Wait, thats wasn't some absurdly sick joke?

It was played off that way at least. Follow the linked article to the twitter profile, you can see he’s deeply reprehensible and a huge booster of settlements. He would “gladly build the condos if the government allowed it” when asked for comment.

Epshtein told the Israeli newspaper Haaretz that his employees were hearing talk about the "day after" the war and one option discussed was reoccupying Gaza and reestablishing Israeli settlements there. Another post advertises "presale" lots on a map of Gaza, dividing it into regions named after the evacuated Gush Katif settlements. It also includes the settlement of "Nova," named for the Supernova rave targeted by Hamas in the Oct. 7 massacres, and "Upper Nova," which is billed as a new city for ultra-orthodox Haredi Jews.

Seems like the office staff put a little more than “15 mins for the lulz” in photoshop to mock up the house render, given that there’s community names, maps, and lot layouts. What a lovely bunch of ghouls.

If you build it, and if the price is right, they will come. There are a lot of people who simply don't care.

Like the Russians selling property in Mariupol. Disgusting.

What a blazing dumpster fire of a website.

Downvoters be like "I don't see a problem"

I don't see the article, personally.

And yes, I can open in an external browser with adblock, but I shouldn't have to.
