Israel’s New Gaza Plan: Full Military Occupation and Permanent Presence

In a deeply alarming development, Israel’s security cabinet has officially approved a new military strategy aimed at permanently occupying the entire Gaza Strip and intensifying the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people.

According to Israeli public broadcaster Kan, the Prime Minister’s Office released a statement—attributed to an anonymous senior official—outlining the unanimous endorsement by the security cabinet (the “kabinett”) of a full-scale operational plan proposed by IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, designed to “defeat Hamas” and recover Israeli captives.

This comes amid a catastrophic humanitarian collapse in Gaza, where international aid agencies, including the World Food Programme and UNRWA, have confirmed the complete depletion of food stocks and the onset of famine—claims Israel continues to dispute.

Famine Denial and Internal Clashes Over Aid

Despite urgent warnings from aid organizations and medical reports of children dying from starvation, Israeli officials claimed, “there is currently enough food in Gaza.” However, transcripts from the cabinet meeting reveal deep internal division.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir openly opposed any humanitarian aid, demanding, “We should bomb Hamas’s food supplies.” In contrast, Chief of Staff Halevi firmly rebuked him:

“These ideas are dangerous. You’re putting us all at risk. We are bound by international law. We cannot starve an entire population.”

Halevi insisted that Israeli soldiers would not distribute food under any circumstances:

“Our role is to secure aid zones—not hand out bread to enraged, starving civilians.”

Tensions boiled over when Prime Minister Netanyahu defended ministers’ rights to speak freely—even if their views violated international law. Meanwhile, Israel’s Attorney General and cabinet legal advisors clarified that:

“Under international law, Israel is legally obligated to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.”

The Real Plan: No Withdrawal, No Negotiation

The heart of Israel’s newly approved plan reveals a much darker trajectory.

At a far-right policy forum in Jerusalem, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich stated:

“Once the ground operation begins, there will be no withdrawal from any territory we’ve taken—even if it means keeping the hostages.”

He echoed growing calls among Israeli leadership to permanently alter Gaza’s demographic and political landscape, proposing:

• • Relocation of Gaza’s population to southern Rafah

• • Establishment of a single, Israeli-controlled aid zone

• • Zero concessions to Hamas or hostages

Other ministers, including Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, voiced support for a broader plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza, stating:

“The full deportation of Palestinians is the only real solution.”

Culture Minister Miki Zohar echoed that sentiment, declaring that the goal of expanding the war is nothing less than the full occupation of Gaza.

Escalation Amid Famine and Resistance

This escalatory doctrine—anchored in indefinite military control, forced displacement, and mass starvation—mirrors apartheid logic and genocide as defined by international law.

Yet Israeli officials present it as a “necessary” response to October 7. Smotrich insisted:

“The only way to release the hostages is to subdue Hamas completely. Any withdrawal will bring them back to strike us again.”

Ironically, it’s Israel’s continued aggression, siege, and colonial ambition that provoke resistance. The far-right Zionist narrative frames humanitarian suffering not as a crisis—but as a tool of war.

Conclusion: The Battle for Gaza’s Future

Israel’s new doctrine is not just about military tactics. It’s a strategic blueprint for permanent occupation, population displacement, and the erasure of Palestinian sovereignty in Gaza.

As the people of Gaza face starvation, disease, and ceaseless bombardment, Israel prepares to tighten its grip—but the question remains: how long can the world remain silent?

From the heart of Gaza to every conscious corner of the globe, this is a moment where history is being written—in blood, rubble, and resilience.
