"Zionism seeks total control and Judaization of Palestine. This cannot happen without genocide, because Palestinians won’t simply surrender their land,

 Israeli anthropologist Jeff Halper accused his country's government of committing genocide in the Gaza Strip, and that it works to extend it in the occupied West Bank, stressing that the government does not care for the fate of the Israeli captives in Gaza.

"Zionism seeks total control and Judaization of Palestine. This cannot happen without genocide, because Palestinians won’t simply surrender their land," he said.

He stressed that "the Palestinian resistance is natural. Israel can’t expel them, so it terrorizes them through massacres," adding that "international law permits armed resistance against oppression."

He, however, described these laws as "meaningless without enforcement, everything is politicized and vetoed by the US in the Security Council. That’s why Israel acts with impunity."

Halper warned "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and exporting it to the West Bank, and despite global public outrage, governments still fail to act."

"My fear is that this tragedy becomes normalized, where Palestinian rights are entirely erased," Jeff Halper also warned.
