World ‘indifferent’ as Israel planning ‘huge extermination’

Gideon Levy, an analyst and columnist at the Israeli media outlet Haaretz, says what is happening in Gaza is the beginning of a “huge extermination programme”.

Speaking to Al Jazeera, he said the new phase of Israel’s war will be “against an uprooted people, refugees, without anything, who will be pushed to the south, and then the entire Gaza Strip will be really exterminated”.

The “world is indifferent to Israel’s plans”, and some Israelis believe that “that’s the right thing to do” after the October 7 attack, he added.

Claims of soured relations between Trump and Israel, based on the US president not including the country in his recent Middle East tour, meanwhile, shouldn’t be taken too seriously as the Republican leader often changes his views and plans day by day, Levy argued.

“Israel was left aside because it was very clear that Netanyahu is not ready to put an end to the war and to withdraw from Gaza, and without it, there is no [ceasefire] deal,” he said.
