A plan to liquidate northern Gaza is gaining steam

The Israeli military has launched a new operation throughout northern Gaza , " Operation Order and Clean-up " Frida Ghitis: It's clear to everyone that this time, Israel is planning something else entirely.

She says some prominent Israelis , in recent months , have also called on the military to carry out mass extermination in northern Gaza .

Some 300,000 Palestinians remain among the ruins of Gaza City and its environs, refusing to leave.

Under pressure from the right, the army begins the “extermination” phase that Rabi outlined.

Since the army has claimed civilians can leave northern Gaza — although soldiers randomly shoot and kill those Palestinian civilians who try to evacuate — it treats anyone who remains in the city as a terrorist.

The army is aware that such a large-scale operation could lead to the execution of the remaining hostages.

Proposal to starve and exterminate hundreds of thousands of people is up for debate.

The proposal does not endorse starvation or extermination, but one of its authors expressed support for the Rabi-Eiland plan and even linked the two proposals.

Regardless of what happens over the coming months , the proposal demonstrates where Israeli society stands today .
