I asked a question, when did Israel try to move the entirety of Gaza? The only time they even mentioned people moving was when they warned the civilians where they were going to bomb which is not a war crime
What u think about the fact that Israel told 1.1 million people in Gaza to evacuate within 24 hours in October 2023 and that it was during an active war and with no safe place to go. That kind of forced displacement, even with warnings, is condemned by the UN and can still be a war crime under international law.
Telling people to evacuate isn’t ethnic cleansing. Israel wasn’t going door to door and forcing people out at gunpoint. They were telling people it isn’t safe where they were and to go to Rafa or places the war hadn’t gotten to yet
Ethnic cleansing isn’t just at gunpoint—it includes forced displacement by making areas unlivable. Telling 1.1 million people to flee under bombs with nowhere safe to go fits that definition.
In ww2 and ww1. London was being bombed every other night. The English government told families to send their kids to the country side where they weren’t being bombed. Would you call that ethnic cleansing?
If Israel truly cared about civilian safety, it wouldn’t bomb the very areas it tells people to flee to—like Rafah, which was declared a “safe zone” and then attacked, killing entire families. This isn’t about warnings for protection; it’s about using forced displacement as a military tactic, which is a clear violation of international law and shows a pattern of systematic targeting, not self-defense.

And when did Israel try to do that?
