Two years of genocide: Israel on trial for crimes against humanity in Gaza
Why You’ve Been Misled About “Israeli Hostages” and “Palestinian Prisoners”
Israel’s Minister Just Confirmed the Ceasefire Was a Lie
Israel’s own Defence Minister just went online and announced the next strike on Gaza before the hostages were even home.
All of Israeli remaining living hostages have been released under the terms of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal, but Netanyahu’s deranged Defence Minister Israel Katz has posted on X that the “great challenge” after the exchanges would be the “destruction of all of Hamas’s tunnels in Gaza,” and saying he had “instructed the IDF to prepare,” and name-checking a future US-“supervised” mechanism that would apparently allow them to do so.
That is not a rumour or a leak; it is the minister of defense posting on social media an operational directive yet to come.
This truce was sold as a humanitarian step towards hopefully permanent peace, though of course we all feared that Israel would break it at some point; Katz has all but announced that intention already. But are any of us surprised?
It took less than three days for Israel’s government to puncture its own ceasefire it seems. This morning, as the first Israeli hostages crossed the border under Red Cross escort, Defence Minister Israel Katz had already announced online that the country’s “great challenge” after the exchanges would be the destruction of all of Hamas’s tunnels in Gaza, having tweeted out that: ‘Israel's great challenge after the phase of returning the hostages will be the destruction of all of Hamas's terror tunnels in Gaza, directly by the IDF and through the international mechanism to be established under the leadership and supervision of the United States.
This is the primary significance of implementing the agreed-upon principle of demilitarizing Gaza and neutralizing Hamas of its weapons. I have instructed the IDF to prepare for carrying out the mission.’ So you’ve just declared to the world that you’re going to start pounding Gaza again when you’ve got your hostages back? That is the inference right? The ceasefire brokered by Washington under the revived Trump framework forbids Israeli offensive operations inside Gaza.
Katz’s statement therefore was not commentary — it was an order that directly contradicted the agreement he was meant to uphold. That Netanyahu has signed. The post is a confession of intent to break the truce, broadcast in real time. Katz’s phrasing was explicit military syntax. “I have instructed” is not political rhetoric; it is a record of a chain-of-command directive. The ceasefire text limits Israeli forces to defensive posture along established corridors.
Of course destroying alleged tunnels is all in self-defense...
It's the next recipe for forever war, back to "mowing the lawn".
