The construction of a huge seaport in Gaza is to facilitate part of a “hidden objective” for the mass migration of Palestinians to Europe, according to a Middle Eastern expert.
According to Jordanian military and strategic affairs expert Hisham Khreisat, “the floating port off the shores of Gaza is a humanitarian facade hiding voluntary migration to Europe.”
“This military tactical port will receive Israeli approval because Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been seeking this idea since the beginning of the war, aiming for the voluntary displacement of Gazans and their flee to Europe,” Khreisat told Anadolu Agency.
The agency reported that the seaport is designed to encourage “voluntary Palestinian migration to Europe and eliminating the role of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, essentially placing Israel in control of all Gaza crossings and ending any Palestinian sovereignty over them.”
However, the official narrative is the White House, which wants to build the port to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The BBC noted that the port would take at least 60 days to build and that “charities have said those suffering in Gaza cannot wait that long.”
The Cradle reported:
If the US wished to stave off famine in Gaza, it could simply use its leverage as Israel’s leading supplier of weapons to force Tel Aviv to allow more aid to enter by truck convoys through existing land crossings.
On 13 October, just days after the beginning of the war on Gaza, the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence issued a document calling for the forcible expulsion of the strip’s 2.3 million inhabitants under a humanitarian guise.
The leaked document recommends making conditions in Gaza so uninhabitable that its population would be forced to flee to other countries, including Egypt’s Sinai, Greece, Spain, and Canada.
Israel could justify the deportation to the international community, the plan stated, if it appears to lead to “fewer casualties among the civilian population compared to the expected number of casualties if they remain,” the document says.
Israel’s horrific bombardment of Gaza since 7 October has created just such conditions, killing at least 30,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children.
The risk of famine, caused by Israel’s blockade, has also created conditions to make the deportation of 2.3 million Gazans appear as a humanitarian gesture.
