“THEY HAVE FLATTENED ALL OF GAZA”
September 14, 2024Noura Erakat, a Palestinian Human Rights Lawyer, exposes the reality of what Israel means when they say “finish the job”.
“Now, when Netanyahu says they want to finish the job, the job is annihilation. It is extermination. It is genocide. They have flattened all of Gaza. It is reported that it will be 10 to 15 years just to clean up the rubble. “

English Script:
Netanyahu: Give us the tools faster and we’ll finish the job faster.
Noura Erakat: Now, when Netanyahu says they want to finish the job, the job is annihilation. It is extermination. It is genocide. They have flattened all of Gaza. It is reported that it will be 10 to 15 years just to clean up the rubble. There are no hospitals. Children cannot be treated. There is now a spread of polio, and US Congress is applauding for this jubilantly, at one point breaking out into a chant of “USA, USA”. And so, as I watch that, one of the things that occurs to me is how the debate within the United States approaching the election in November has taken on the stance that there is a demarcation or a distinction between foreign policy and domestic policy. What happens over there and what happens at home, as if those things are not entwined in imbricated. Right now, those chants echo an entitlement to kill, echo an entitlement to plunder, to destroy lives that are not seen or deemed worthy. And where racism and colonialism is not a dog whistle but is on full display. So, for those who are concerned about saving their democracy at home, I want to tell them that there is no democracy to save, that manifests itself in ongoing genocide in this way.
