Killing large number of children in Gaza is not simply forcible depopulation. It is an effort to destabilise communities and crush their hopes for liberation and the right of return as mandated by the UN.

On this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents senior reporter Alex Kane spoke to Mouin Rabbani, a co-editor of Jadaliyya, and Tariq Kenney-Shawa, US policy fellow at Al-Shabaka, about situating this moment in the long history of Palestinians displacement, whether and how a Trump ethnic cleansing plan is likely to unfold, and how it will impact the ceasefire in Gaza.

By sending weapons to Israel while halting arms sales to Ukraine, Trump backs nations that are “occupying a less powerful people.”

Trump’s plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza wouldn't be accepted across the Middle East and could lead to uprisings or coups, argues Toufic Haddad.

“What is needed now is a political solution to Gaza to make that reconstruction both physically possible and long term sustainable,” said Tariq Kenney-Shawa.
