Quoting professor Avishai Ehrlich on Trump's "transfer" endorsement and the reshaping of global order:
[…] While Israelis are drawing comparisons between the condition of returned hostages and the 'Muselmann' in Nazi concentration camps [a derogatory term meaning “Muslim”, as in ‘barbaric’ or ‘fatalistic’], the world views what is happening in Gaza as genocide. Gazans will not leave voluntarily, and Trump will not transfer Gaza's population using the American military, nor through private military companies. Will the Israeli army once again destroy the ruins, bomb the survivors in refugee camps, and exterminate those who are starving? All of them? As Bialik [a poet] said: 'Vengeance like this, for the blood of a child, Satan has yet to devise.' How will we live afterward in the Middle East? How will we live in the world? How will we live with ourselves?
Ehrlich argues that Trump's support for the "transfer" (ethnic cleansing) of Palestinians from #Gaza is part of a broader shift in the global order. He connects this endorsement to the historical Zionist concept of transfer, noting that it has been a central idea since before #Israel's establishment and implemented through various expulsions and dispossessions. He contends that a military victory over #Hamas is impossible, and that the only way to obtain it is to get rid of the population.
Ehrlich is a professor of political sociology, and has extensively researched the Israeli-Arab conflict, arguing that Israeli society cannot be understood separately from the conflict, which he terms a "Permanent War society". He views the conflict through the lens of "world-systems" theory, where global power dynamics shape local conflicts. He also researches the concept of "Low Intensity Ethnic Cleansing," where administrative measures create conditions for mass migration, and the rise of Private Military Companies (PMCs), which erode state accountability and international law.

#ReformTheMedia. The Nation is way off. The point is to create pockets of degraded refugees whose violent incidental response to oppression can result in eradicating cultures and populations for settler colonial land acquisition via #PermanentWar. Austin etc talking strategy is nonsense, like #COP28 bemoaning industrial control. The border states Jordan, Syria, Egypt know that they will be the future PA, which is why they are keeping their borders closed to the US proxies turning homelands into rubble.

#PermanentWar : In practice, the otherizing of human beings remains central to the grim calculus by which we justify violence.
In the United States, it’s in the way Black communities are over-policed, Indigenous communities are neglected, migrants are warehoused, and asylum seekers are kept out.
Internationally, it’s in the way our society dismisses the targets of Western wars and capitalism.

#ForeverPeacekeeping withdraws from the empire’s #KingLeopoldsGenocide supplychain: Lutundula said the deal marked the end of a collaboration "which has proved its limits in a context of #PermanentWar, without the longed for peace being restored to eastern Congo."
Between rubber and Colton there was a temporary detour into a Rwandan genocide.
#IraqWar: What is disturbing is not the cost to me personally. I was aware of the potential consequences. What is disturbing is that the architects of these debacles have never been held accountable and remain ensconced in #power. They continue to promote #PermanentWar, including the ongoing #ProxyWar in #Ukraine against Russia, as well as a future #wars https://open.substack.com/pub/chrishedges/p/the-lords-of-chaos
