Much alarm has been raised over the so-called 'Generals' Plan,' an ethnic cleansing proposal for northern Gaza that has reportedly garnered attention in the highest reaches of the Israel i government. But Israel i scholar Idan Landau argued in a column published in English by +972 Magazine on Friday that what the Israel i military is actually doing in northern Gaza 'is even more appalling' than the plan outlined by a group of retired generals.
' The scholar cites one 'particularly harrowing video' in which a Palestinian child is seen 'on the ground pleading for help after being wounded by an airstrike; when a crowd gathers to help him, they are suddenly hit by another airstrike, killing one and wounding more than 20 others.' 'This is the reality amid which the people of northern Gaza were supposed to walk, starved and exhausted, into the 'humanitarian zone,' Landau wrote.
