Israel To Ship Gazans To Syria Where Assad Can Slaughter Them Without International Trouble

Repeating the procedure that the Assad regime has used throughout the country's civil war, including against thousands of Palestinians.

Tel Aviv, October 24 - Military and defense officials have devised a plan to solve the Gaza crisis to the south once and for all, and perhaps come to conciliation with a lifelong existential enemy to the north at the same time: arrange with Basher Assad to take the terror-supporting residents of the Gaza Strip to the Syrian Arab Republic, and the Syrian president, drawing on years of experience, will kill those millions of Gazans - and the international community will ignore the massacres, as they always do when Israel is not the perpetrator. The collaboration that the planners foresee will lead to better relations between Israel and Syria, with a possible resolution of disputed claims over the Golan Heights.

Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant convened ministry officials and top IDF brass today to discuss the proposal, which carries the name Operation Fig Leaf. Ministry sources described a shift in attitude since October 7, when thousands of Hamas terrorists stormed into Israel from Gaza, murdered 1400, raped and pillaged, tortured and maimed, and abducted hundreds. Before that calamity, Israeli defense and political assumptions focused on managing the conflict with the Palestinians, thinking that stability and the promise of economic prosperity might moderate Palestinian violence and hostility. Hamas exploited Israel's conciliatory economic measures to lull Israel into defense complacency ahead of the attack.

The failure forced Israel's defense establishment to replace the disastrous assumption that the Palestinian leadership prefers its people's prosperity and security over the destruction of Israel, and has begun to examine, of not to adopt yet, operational models long viewed as unacceptable - unacceptable for Israel alone, given that numerous other nation-states have frequently engaged in ethnic cleansing and mass brutality with only marginal long-term consequences - not to mention a distinct lack of protests around the globe against those atrocities.

Under Operation Fig Leaf, the IDF will use its upcoming ground assault on Gaza - to free hostages and destroy Hamas's fighting capacity - to open a "human pipeline" to Syria from the coastal territory. Syrian forces will take shipment of Palestinians at Tartus or Latakia, then move them inland and dispose of them in mass graves, away from the critical eyes of human rights NGOs, the United Nations, and Western progressive activists, repeating the procedure that the Assad regime has used throughout the country's civil war, including against thousands of Palestinians.

Fig Leaf will also open channels with the Syrian Arab Army that the planners hope will lead to understandings over the Golan, the strategic plateau that Israel took from Syria in 1967 and annexed in 1981. The plan calls for an exploration of whether Assad will relinquish claims on the Golan in exchange for the opportunity to engage in the brutality he and his father Hafez made a trademark of their regime, but which has been constrained by domestic weakness.
