You aren't calling me a liar so I am not responding as though defending against such a charge.

However these statements came from reputable news sources, not nutcases on social media. And while Israel routinely suppresses news even after publication, I'm sure these are still extant.

Respectfully, however, I am not going to seek out links. You could do the same with exactly the same amount of effort, and since I already read them, it's you who needs to.

Not that there is any reason to doubt. Expansionism is Israel's 𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝑑'𝑒̂𝑡𝑟𝑒, which is why they are filling the West Bank with "settlements" to make sure Palestinians never again have their own state.

First, they said to evacuate northern Gaza, now they are leveling the south as well, and, yes, they are saying everyone needs to leave, and, no,. they will not leave it empty.

I never credit news from dubious sources and that even includes, in this instance, the Gray Lady. I typically read the Washington Post and Associated Press as I sip my morning coffee. In this affair the NYT has too pronounced a pro-Israel slant and I don't take them seriously there.

I do recommend Al Jazeera. Their avoidance of bias is impressive and they are much more textual than pictorial. But they'tr occasional reading for me, something I should change.
