How can Israel keep its promise that displaced Gazans will be allowed to return home, when those Gazans won't have a home to return to?
They never intended to keep that promise.
"At least the foundation is there!" - Bibi probably
"No home no claim on land!" - Bibi the Genocider, most likely.
Unironically someone from media should ask him what's up
They can return to the same spot, we promise!
It's probably a conditional promise.
You know "Gazans can get back home as long as they're 3 feet under"
those cowards, hiding inside, uh...the entirety of their own country
And they had no way out. I was talking to some complete fool the other day who said that Gazans should just flee on rafts like African migrants do. As if Israel wouldn't blow them out of the fucking water with their navy.
Also, Egypt is not getting enough blame for not letting Gazans out through their border. They need to. That makes them a partner in this genocide even if they're not an active partner.
I learned about this BS for the first time wondering that same thing, somehow Israel also controls the Gaza/Egypt border https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphi_Route
I don't agree with the Egypt part. It's a sovereign country and has the right to refuse to give up an entire peninsula of their land.
Israel is betting on them to open the doors so they can just take Gazan land like they want to. It's even pressuring Europe for weeks now to pressure Egypt. So there is a plan there and it won't be in favour of Gazans.
It's also a country that has its own shit going on. As soon as they open the border, the world will look away as if they've solved something and the Gazans will never have the right to return to their country because there will be no more Gaza.
Egypt knows any Palestinian refugee that leaves Palestine will never be allowed to return home. Letting Gazans into Sinai would be to permanently accepting them, and also likely result in Israel invading Egypt to create a “safe zone”, possibly dragging Egypt into the war. The Gazans would be politically destabilizing, due to the strain that admitted potentially over a million refugees with nothing would cause on the already struggling domestic economy.
If you look into Gaza strip in Google Maps, you can see it looked just like any other town in the rest of the world: plenty of recreational places, parks, restaurants, markets, all bustling with activities. Now it's all rubbles.
More space for settlers I guess
This is the ultimate goal. The reason so many gazans didn't evacuate is because last time the Israelis just straight up took their land. Once they leave it's up to the Israelis to let them back on their own land.

Israel is pretty good at genocide.
So israel has destroyed half of hamas' bases? good for them /s
At least they've neutralized all those 5 year old leaders and infant sympathizers.
Can we not make senseless fun of anything we disapprove of? Some of us would prefer constructive criticism and discussion
And terrorist premature babies.
It is actually quite disheartening to read for all this in the news and know that after all this Israel won't be held accountable for all the destruction and lost lives.
And I am thinking about the hospital personnel who decided to stay and continue helping the sick and vulnerable. They are the real heroes here. And I also know that if I was at their place I would come out of this as a completely broken human being, traumatised for life. And it makes me so sad for those people. Probably they also lost their homes and have nowhere to go.
What is Israel going to leave after themselves is an complete wasteland, utter desperation, broken lives, lifelong trauma for a big chunk of the population and even more hatred.
I mean, yes, because Hamas bases is down below the building, so they just flattening Gaza with civilian to bury the terrorist.
What about the hostages, you asked? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Calling it the "Israel-Hamas" conflict feels intellectually dishonest.
It's a genocide. The Palestinian genocide at the hands of the Israeli Defense Force.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Nearly half of the homes in Gaza have been destroyed or damaged by the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, the United Nations reported.
According to a recently released report from the U.N. surveying a preliminary aerial assessment of structural damage in Gaza, 45 percent of the homes in Gaza have been destroyed or damaged.
Airstrikes have hit Gaza repeatedly over the course of several weeks, after the Palestinian militant group Hamas entered Israel in a surprise attack on Oct. 7.
Israeli forces have said approximately 1,200 people were killed in the initial attack.
“Significant damage has been inflicted upon critical infrastructure and essential services, affecting people’s ability to maintain their dignity and basic living standards,” the U.N. wrote.
The report said there are 1.5 million internally displaced residents, which makes up 65 percent of Gaza’s population.
