Israel minister renews call for striking Gaza with ‘nuclear bomb’

Israel’s far-right Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu today renewed his call for striking the Gaza Strip with a “nuclear bomb.”

“Even in The Hague they know my position,” the Times of Israel newspaper quoted Eliyahu as saying during a tour of the occupied West Bank city of Hebron, in reference to his previous call for using nuclear weapons in the Gaza Strip.

In November, Eliyahu said dropping a “nuclear bomb” on the Gaza Strip is “an option.”

The hardline minister also called for encouraging Gaza’s population to leave the enclave.

During the two-day public hearing at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on 11-12 January, South Africa quoted extremist Israeli politicians, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who have time and again called for erraticating Palestinians, resettling Gaza and blocking the establishment of a Palestinian state, as evidence that Tel Aviv is committing genocide in the Gaza Strip.

  1. Striking Gaza with a nuclear missile, bomb or artillery shell would be suicidal for Israel. Do they really think the fallout from a nuclear explosion will stop at their borders? It could lead to MAD, Mutually Assured Destruction and World War III. They will destroy both the Palestinians and the state of Israel all in an attempt to save Israel. Totally insane. Just like the US Army General in Vietnam saying “we destroy the village in order to save it.”
