    “Under Olmert’s leadership, the Israeli government and military high command executed a large-scale military campaign that resulted in the indiscriminate bombardment of densely populated civilian areas, the destruction of hospitals, schools, and UN facilities, and the killing of more than 1,300 Palestinians, among them over 300 children and 115 women,” the Hind Rajab Foundation said.

  7. 2008 hatte Ehud #Olmert - der damalige israelische Ministerpräsident - Mahmoud #Abbas angeboten, einen Großteil der #Westbank, #Ost-Jerusalem als Hauptstadt und dazu eine Verbindung nach #Gaza als Staat zu bekommen. Der Palästinenser-Präsident sagte #Nein. #Palästina

  8. #Hunger als #Waffe gegen #Gaza wird bereits seit zwei Jahrzehnten systematisch eingesetzt.

    #Israel weiß und kalkuliert exakt, was es tut, mindestens seit 2006. Der israelische Oberste Gerichtshof ordnete die Herausgabe entsprechender Dokumente an, 2012.

    Kein Wunder, dass man damit weiter macht:

    »Die #Hungersnot in Gaza zu belegen ist nur eine Frage der Mathematik: Die #Palästinenser können nicht ausreisen, der Krieg hat die Landwirtschaft beendet, und #Israel hat jeglichen Fischfang verboten. Praktisch jede Kalorie, die die Bevölkerung erhält, muss von außerhalb herbeigeschafft werden.

    Israel weiß, wie viel Nahrung benötigt wird. Es hat den Hunger im Gazastreifen jahrzehntelang genau dosiert: Lieferungen wurden zunächst so kalkuliert, dass man Druck ausüben und gleichzeitig eine Hungersnot vermeiden konnte.

    „Die Idee ist, die Palästinenser auf Diät zu setzen, ohne sie verhungern zu lassen“, sagte ein hochrangiger Berater des damaligen Premierministers Ehud #Olmert im Jahr 2006.«

  10. #Hunger as a #weapon against #Gaza has been used for two decades already.

    #Israel knows, and expressly calculates, exactly what it is doing, at least starting from 2006, as it was forced to admit by the Israeli Supreme Court.

    »The mathematics of #famine are simple in Gaza. #Palestinians cannot leave, war has ended farming and #Israel has banned fishing, so practically every calorie its population eats must be brought in from outside.

    Israel knows how much food is needed. It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert pressure while avoiding starvation.

    “The idea is to put the Palestinians on a diet, but not to make them die of hunger,” a senior adviser to the then prime minister, Ehud #Olmert, said in 2006.«

    Katz hatte das Militär beauftragt, Pläne für ein #Lager zu entwickeln, das zunächst 600.000 Menschen und später die gesamte #palästinensische Bevölkerung aufnehmen soll. Die Bewohner dürften das Lager nur verlassen, um in andere Länder zu gehen. „Es ist ein #Konzentrationslager (...)“, sagte Olmert. #gaza

    We make a discount to ourselves saying ‘they are antisemites’. I don’t think that they are only antisemites, I think many of them are anti-Israel because of what they watch on television, what they watch on social networks.

    Former #Israeli Prime Minister #EhudOlmert has blasted the country’s political leadership and the conduct of its military, saying he is no longer able to defend #Israel against accusations of war crimes.

    #Olmert pointed to Israel’s 11-week blockade of humanitarian #aid into #Gaza and the soaring number of #Palestinians killed.
    “What is it if not a #warcrime?” he asked rhetorically.

  28. I'd be interested in whether #EhudOlmert, former Prime Minister of #Israel, will now be accused of #antisemitism, like the many who have dared to say before what he is saying now.

    »While #Olmert wrote that he had previously defended his country against “accusations of #genocide and war crimes,” the Israeli politician said he can no longer see the widespread slaughter of civilians, including women, children and the elderly, or the campaign to starve #Gaza as mere collateral damage in “a brutal war.”

    “What we are doing in Gaza is a war of extermination: indiscriminate, unrestrained, brutal, and criminal killing of #civilians,” he said.«

  33. L'ex primo ministro israeliano Ehud #Olmert ha messo in guardia da un'aggressione.
    "La pazienza della comunità internazionale ha raggiunto un punto tale che non credo che sarà in grado di assorbirlo", ha dichiarato in un'intervista a Bloomberg News.
    "È un rischio che non possiamo permetterci di correre".

    Le fazioni politiche palestinesi si incontreranno giovedì a Mosca per discutere di un possibile governo di unità e della ricostruzione di Gaza, pochi giorni dopo le dimissioni del primo ministro palestinese, Mohammad Shtayyeh, che ha dichiarato che era giunto il momento di un nuovo approccio globale.

    Il ministro degli Esteri Riyad al-Maliki ha dichiarato di non aspettarsi “miracoli” dai colloqui, che riuniranno funzionari di Hamas e Fatah, che governa la Cisgiordania.⟧ 🔚11

    #Ehud #Olmert served as #prime #minister of #Israel from 2006 to 2008. In recent weeks, he’s joined the hundreds of thousands of Israeli #protesters out on the streets revolting against the #illiberal #government of Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu.

    This moment, he says, is different from previous political crises that Israel has faced.

    “If you love Israel, you have to spell it out in the bluntest possible manner against the government of Israel. I’ll tell you why: because **the government of Israel is the enemy of the state of Israel**,” he told Vox.
