As the UK and US back Israel’s aggression against Palestinians, including an imminent ground invasion of Gaza, are they also about to assist Israel’s ethnic cleansing proposal for a “Greater Gaza” – in Egypt?
As Israel masses its forces along the fence encaging Gaza, waiting for a green light from the United States for a ground invasion, the question few are asking is: What is the ultimate endgame for Israel?
Instead, British and US politicians, backed by their media, have limited themselves to amplifying Israel’s bogus rationales for indiscriminately bombing men, women and children in the tiny coastal enclave and preparing to send in troops. Only 80 or so British MPs, out of 650, have so far called for a ceasefire.
