The message went out the day before on several WhatsApp groups: A chance to meet Daniella Weiss, the godmother of the Zionist settler movement, for an informational session on the reestablishment of Israeli settlements in Gaza after the war.

…

Weiss said 500 families have already signed up to resettle through her organization Nachala, whose name means “inheritance.” One of Nachala’s members told the group they were sending a representative to Florida to raise money for the cause.  Nachala already receives support from groups in the US, including Americans for a Safe Israel, even as the Biden administration strengthens its opposition to settlements in the West Bank.

…

Projected on the wall during Weiss’ presentation was her vision of post-war Gaza, a map with six nucleus groups laying claim to settlements spanning the entire length and width of the strip. There were no areas for the two million or so Palestinians who call it home now and who have seen lives, homes and communities devastated by the ongoing war, sparked by Hamas’ massacre of Israeli citizens last October 7.

…

“No Arab, I’m speaking about more than two million Arabs. They will not stay there,” Weiss said. “We Jews will be in Gaza.”

1. It seems Israel has become much more like the MAGA cult here, wanting to rule everything and caring for no one else.

2. Daniella should talk with Jared Kushner about developing that seashore property

3. Uncle BiBi

can put Jared in touch with her, if he hasn't already. Being a close family friend from Kushner's childhood.

5. She's dreaming

And Netanyahu needs to shut down these far right extremists who don't have a fucking clue how the world works. Also - he needs to step down

Looking at you, Smotrich....

8. Hey! Now do the Palestinians that want to kill all the Jews in Israel!!! NT

12. none of this would be happening without generalizations

That's how evil takes over is bigotry, cherry picking, and sweeping misinformation.
Too much of it going around, so thick you can't even see it's just people on the other side.

9. I posted this frightening interview from New Yorker with her back in November. Reread if you

can stand it.

11. It's a country that's losing its soul. The last people I thought would call for ethnic cleansing.

It's heartbreaking. All those families slaughtered for the crime of being neighbors to terrorists. All those people on October 7th slaughtered for the crime of being vilified by terrorists.
