More incitement to violence from Israeli Security Minister Itamar Ben
Gvir exposes how colonial violence is aimed at the entire colonised
population. Speaking on a podcast with former Israeli hostage Rom
Braslavski, Ben Gvir said that Israeli forced should kill 30-40
Palestinians each night in Gaza.

Braslavski requested to act as executioner should Ben GvirAs plan come
to pass, to which the security minister replied, oI will turn the
world upside down to make that happen. I promise you that I will do
everything I can and turn the world upside down until it happens.o

As shocking as the comments are, both are the product of an enterprise
that knows it can only sustain itself through ethnic cleansing.

In 2025, a poll by the Hebrew University Centre showed that 87 per
cent of the Israeli governmentAs supporters perceived ono innocentsA
in Gaza, while 64 per cent of Israelis held the same view.

IsraelAs Channel 14 branded all Palestinians killed during the
genocide as terrorists. Among settlers that normalise the killings of Palestinians, and which even glorifies those murdering them, Ben
GvirAs comments are unlikely to elicit any lingering shock. On the
contrary, Ben GvirAs wish for extrajudicial killings may well find
willing participants. And while Gaza remains within reach of the
Israeli military in terms of extrajudicial assassinations, the
occupied West Bank faces both Israeli institutions and settlers.

Ben GvirAs comments were aimed at Gaza, but IsraelAs colonisation
plans do not only include Gaza. The occupied West Bank, which faces
daily violence from settlers, is much at risk from extrajudicial
killings. In Ras al-Ain, south of Nablus, Israeli settlers besieged
Palestinian families and cut off their electricity, water and food
supplies. While attracting international attention, the UN as usual
preferred to rely on its usual condemnations while Erika Guevara Ross,
Amnesty International Senior Director for Research, Advocacy, Policy
and Campaigns, described the siege as oan accelerating and
well-documented pattern of coordinated and strategic settler terror,
enabled, backed and funded by the State of Israel.o True, but what is
being done with the information that is already mainstream knowledge
to the rest of the world?

Likewise, Ben GvirAs comments have not prompted a reckoning with world
leaders or international institutions. Israel has already internalised
such thinking u it thrives upon creating victims to sustain itself.
The international community, supposedly a reference for human rights
under the UN, does not seem to consider Ben GvirAs threats dangerous
enough. Even though Israel has a proven history of torturing and
killing Palestinians.

Killing 30-40 Palestinians per night is not merely a fantasy. It has
already been carried out by the Israeli military during the genocide;
also exceeding that quota. Ben Gvir has also found someone willing to
carry out the assassinations, even on a much larger scale. For Israel,
as Ben Gvir again elucidated, Palestinians oare not worthy of life.
They shouldnAt live. TheyAre not even people.o

If, according to Ben Gvir, killing Palestinians is killing non-people,
then Israel is already completely absolved of culpability. This is the
type of impunity the UN is harvesting for Israel.
