Rabbi who boasts of bulldozing Palestinian homes will light torch for Israel’s national day

Human rights campaigners say honour for Avraham Zarbiv endorses ethnic cleansing and war crimes

An extremist rabbi known for razing civilian homes in Gaza will light a torch at Israel’s independence day celebration on Tuesday, a role human rights campaigners said marked the embrace of genocide as the official “spirit of the nation”.

Avraham Zarbiv is one of 14 people chosen for their “extraordinary contribution to society and the state”, alongside a scientist, a Michelin-starred chef, a leading doctor, members of the security forces and entrepreneurs.

A reservist who drives an armoured bulldozer, Zarbiv rose to prominence through videos documenting his personal campaign of destruction in Gaza, often accompanied by inflammatory rhetoric.

“You will have nothing left,” he declares in one voiceover, as the camera pans across a landscape of shattered buildings. “We will flatten you and destroy you.”

JD Vance could yet save his political skin. But it will mean turning on Trump – and soon

Simon Tisdall

The vice-president has endured his most humiliating – and damaging – week as his boss’s fall guy. How much more can Maga’s great hope take?

"Vitriol and Vendetta: Israel Is Doing Everything It Can to Drive Its Closest Allies Away | Analysis"

Land etter land, Israel UD går i strupen på dem.
Selv tidligere vernner av Israelslipper ikke unna.

Hvem står bak?
Er det Utenriksminister Katz?
Eller er det Netanyahu?

Analysen er kritisk til at Netanyahu bare satser en vei: 
USA, kun Republikanerne der, og spesielt Trump.

IDF-soldater har fått psykiske problemer etter opplevelser i Gaza-krigen

 Artikkel i Haaretz, intervju med IDF-soldater som har fått psykiske problemer etter opplevelser i Gaza-krigen, se Kilde:

"'I Felt I Was a Monster': IDF Soldiers Talk About the 'Moral Injury' – and the Silence"

Skremmende hva IDF-soldater sier de har vært med på i Gaza.
Og senere ikke skjønner at det ikke gjorde anskrik.

 

Her angis både tortur, drap av sivile uten grunn og bombing der det klart vil bli drept mange sivile, og barn.  
Og alt skyves under teppe av IDF-ledelse og politisk ledelse i Israel.

Bilde i italiensk magasin skaper forviklinger mellom Israel og Italia - "Diplomati" gjør saken verre

 Bilde i italiensk magasin L'Espresso kaper forviklinger mellom Israel og Italia

"The Settler’s Grin: How One Italian Magazine Cover Exposed the Monstrosity of Greater Israel"

Utdrag:
"Israel’s ambassador to Italy, Jonathan Peled, immediately denounced the cover as “manipulative” and distorting reality."

Men "diplomatiet" bare gjorde saken verre.
Bildet og historien spredte seg.

Bilder har stor kraft.

Hva Gaza er blitt

Utdrag fra  Kommentar nr 2,  hentet fra artikkel i Haaretz 17. april 2026, se Kilde.

Her oppsummeres i få ord det Israel har oppnådd i Gaza:

"Gaza is 50 km away from Tel Aviv. Israel created a somalia-like, gangs-run, desolated place of windy rubbles haunted by *millions* of sick, starving and desperate people with no hope and very very angry.

Gaza will fester like a cancer for generations, no matter what happens, even if some peace is found and rebuilding happens which is by no means certain at this point."

Apartheid i Jerusalem

 Artikkel i Haaretz 16. april 2026 beskriver det israelske lovverket som er apartheid:

Eiendommer i Jerusalem som før 1948 hadde jødiske eiere kan tilbakekreves av tidligere eiere.

Eiendommer i Jerusalem som før 1948 hadde palestinske eiere kan IKKE tilbakekreves av tidligere eiere.

Eksempel i denne artikkelen:

"Israel Collaborating With Settlers to Expel Palestinians From Their Old City Homes"

"The Justice Ministry is using a lawyer from the Ateret Cohanim association to lead the eviction process of the Basha family from a building where they have lived for almost a century in the Old City of Jerusalem. The family has less than two weeks to leave"

Utdrag:
""This is an injustice that cries out to the heavens," says Peace Now's Afran. "While hundreds of thousands of Israelis live safely in properties that were owned by Palestinians before 1948, in East Jerusalem, the law allows Palestinians to be dispossessed of homes that were owned by Jews before 1948."
