“Erase Gaza From History”: Former U.S. Secretary of State Sparks Outrage Over Gaza Victims
January 16, 2026
“ERASE GAZA FROM HISTORY.”
This is not a slip of the tongue.
It’s the logic of erasure spoken out loud.
Mike Pompeo has openly called for deleting Gaza’s victims from history books, reducing mass death, destruction, and civilian suffering to something disposable, something to be forgotten.
When history is erased, crimes are repeated.
When victims are denied memory, violence is legitimized.

English Script:
Mike Pompeo: The next generation of young people won’t remember October 7th in the same way. That’s true in Israel and in America and broadly in the world. We need to make sure that the story is told properly so that when the history books write this, they don’t write about the victims of Gaza. I know you’re going to ask about the stabilization force. So many nations have said they’re prepared to go in. No one’s willing to go in and kill a Gazan. I haven’t seen any nation that says “I will put my forces in Gaza, and when the Gazans cross a agreed-to principle, we will provide actual security”. There’s no one. The only nation that’s prepared to do that today is Israel. The Israelis still have to do the heavy lifting and the hard work to get to something that’s as close to Hamas disarmament as you can possibly get. If you’d asked me ten years ago when I entered Congress what I thought about the United Nations, I would have said, it’s important, and we need to get it and make it better. And today, I believe it ought to be eliminated.
