Elon Musk said that Starlink satellite internet will be made available to aid organizations in Gaza after communications were cut off late Friday.[...]
Israel's communications minister, Shlomo Karhi, later responded to Musk's post on X, saying Israel would fight against the SpaceX CEO's effort to offer Starlink to Gaza.

Israel's communications minister is proposing emergency regulations that would allow police to arrest citizens and journalists who publish content deemed to "harm national morale". Under Shlomo Karhi's proposal, those restrictions could be placed upon publications that have been used as a "base for enemy propaganda". Journalists and other citizens could have their homes searched, property seized and could be placed under arrest for speech the government deems undesirable. The proposal comes on the ninth day of fighting between Israel and Palestinian groups, which has killed at least 2,450 Palestinians in Gaza, including 724 children and 458 women. In the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, 56 people have been killed by Israeli fire. Meanwhile, at least 1,300 people have been killed in Israel. Earlier on Sunday, Karhi said he was seeking a possible closure of Al Jazeera's local bureau, accusing the Qatari news station of pro-Hamas incitement and of exposing Israeli soldiers to potential attack from Gaza.

-Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu 
“We are striking our enemies with unprecedented might,” … “I emphasize that this is only the beginning.”

-former Israeli interior minister, Eli Yishai 
"King David cut off another 100 foreskins of Philistines as revenge for clogging up the wells with dirt.

(long chunk of text)
“1. This war is not only against Hamas.
2. This war is first and foremost about the future of the State of Israel and the future of the Zionist project.
3. Any scenario other than a complete and unequivocal defeat of the enemy, at any cost, condemns us and our descendants to a bleak future that will not allow our existence here as a free people.

-Knesset member, Ariel Kallner

-media advisor, Ariel Elharar, describing treatment of Hamas-affiliated POWs in prison.
“As you will have seen in the last couple of weeks, the fighting is very surgical. It is slow. It is very methodical. We are trying not to reach any of the non-combatant population in the Gaza Strip. And I think that there is no way that we can eradicate the Hamas without dealing with most of its forces that have been— that have fled to the south. Now, again, one little note, “the non-combatant population in the Gaza Strip” is really a non-existent term because all of the Gazans voted for the Hamas, and as we have seen on the 7th of October, most of the population in the Gaza Strip are Hamas.”
-former Mossad chief, Rami Igra

-Rep. Max Miller (who thinks Israel doesn’t need to follow rules of engagement)

-Senator Tom Cotton
"Israel must respond DISPROPORTIONATELY to this and any future attacks."

I mean, these are people, as you have been reporting and others have seen, that deliberately targeted teenage girls, women, children, the elderly, not just for rape and murder, but then dumping their bodies off in the streets of Gaza, where the crowds can then defile their lifeless bodies.
I mean, just horrifying things. And I don't think we know the full extent of it yet. I mean, there's more to come in the days and weeks ahead. You can't coexist. They have to be eradicated. And you've pointed out the very difficult challenge ahead—this is going to be incredibly painful. This is going to be incredibly difficult and it's going to be horrifying—the price to pay.”

-rep. Brian Mast

Based on these allegations, it’s sadly not surprising she’s calling for a genocide against the Jewish people.”
-an accusatory tweet from senator Marsha Blackburn regarding lone Palestinian congresswoman, Rashida Tlaib
“I don’t have any malice towards Palestinians. I have Muslim friends, believe me.”
-rep. Ryan Zinke regarding criticism of his Palestinian ban

-also rep. Ryan Zinke claiming his Palestinian immigration ban is ‘well deserved’
#3 VIRAL STATEMENTS FROM EVERYDAY ZIONISTS:
(long chunk of text)
“On the Gaza beach the autumn night is descending
Planes are bombing, ruin follows ruin
See the IDF crossing the borderline
To annihilate the Swastika carriers
In one more year
There won’t be anything left there
And we’ll return safely to our home
In one more year
We’ll eliminate them all and go back to plowing our fields”
-Video on Kan News, sung by several 6-12 year olds
"After the war, Israel should handle Gaza like China handles Xinjiang. Full surveillance state. Re education camps. Sterilizations. It's warranted and the only way to pacify the jihadi population."
"They reproduce like rabbits and raise them to be terrorists, creating more poverty, misery, and terrorism. Why should we allow that. The world would be a much better place if they didn't reproduce."
-tweets from cofounder of Oyster Ventures, Kenneth Ballenegger
“These are the Palestinians. Blood thirsty morally depraved animals who want nothing short of every inch of Israel and all Jews dead.”

We don’t do reconciliation.
And the chorus stays the same:
May your village burn down.”
-Sung by IDF soldiers in the West Bank 
“No ceasefire!”
-chants from March For Israel crowd in response to Van Jones wanting no more deaths
“I wish they will rape you alive.
They will film you.
And if your mother be alive.
They will send the video for your mother to see how you burn.
That’s what I wish.”
-March for Israel protester
“Let me say the unsayable. I’m not endorsing this but it’s a possible solution which is simply to expel them from Gaza. You might call that ethnic cleansing and so forth but the fact is that at the end of the second world war there were a million Germans kicked out of Poland. There were Germans expelled from Czechoslovakia,"
-Breitbart editor, Joel Pollak
“That’s an option, I think, after all this … If it comes down to ethnic cleansing, you want to cleanse my people. I’ll cleanse yours first.”
-Breitbart editor, Joel Pollak
“There will never be a Palestinian state. It’s over.”

#4 A FEW ALARMING CELEBRITY STATEMENTS:
“Gazans rape Jewish girls only in self defense,”
-a line from a comic posted by Amy Schumer
“You either stand with Israel or you stand with terrorism”
-Noah Schnapp 
“Many are saying that it’s inhumane that Israel is cutting off water/electricity to Gaza. Israel made it pretty simple — ‘release the hostages and we will turn it back on. Instead of pleading with Hamas to release CIVILIAN hostages which include BABIES and TODDLERS there are politicians (cough cough AOC) calling Israel inhumane. If that isn’t enough for you: ISRAEL DOES NOT NEED TO SUPPLY GAZA WITH THESE RESOURCES (which they do, for FREE),”
-deleted Sarah Silverman story she said she made because she was “stoned”

🚨 Remember when 90 Israeli doctors urged the IOF to bomb Al Shifa and other hospitals in Gaza?
Well, their lobbying succeeded.
🚨 Al Shifa Hospital, built in Gaza in 1946, is now completely destroyed and inoperable.
This level of brutality has been normalized because of international politicians and media parroting the “medical shielding” lie (that Palestinian hospitals are military headquarters).
📕 This is the deliberate destruction of a people. This is textbook genocide.
📺 Today Israel’s parliament passed a law paving way for Al Jazeera ban, giving the government the authority to stop Al Jazeera from broadcasting and operating in Israel.
❗️The law passed by a 70-10 vote on Monday evening & also gives the government the authority to close the offices of ALL foreign channels in Israel.
In a social media post sent out shortly after the Israeli parliament passed the bill, Netanyahu welcomed the law, and said that #AlJazeera would “no longer broadcast from Israel”.
Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi said earlier today that Al Jazeera, one of the few international media channels to broadcast live from Gaza during the unfolding #genocide, would be “closed in the coming days”.

Al Jazeera's offices will remain shut in #Israel for 45 more days, according to Israeli Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, who says he is "convinced" the broadcasting ban will be extended in the future as well.
Announcing the development on X, Karhi thanked Prime Minister Netanyahu and the government for approving the extension.
"We will not allow the Al Jazeera terrorist channel to broadcast in Israel and endanger our fighters. I have now signed the extension of the orders banning Al Jazeera channel broadcasts in Israel," Karhi said.
Al Jazeera has sent a comment to the minister through its lawyer, rejecting this decision and denying all accusations and justifications on which the minister based his decision.
The Doha-based news network in a statement last month condemned the shutdown, describing it as a "criminal act".

By SAM SOKOL, JEREMY SHARON, and REUTERS
The Knesset approved on Monday evening the so-called Al Jazeera law, giving the government temporary powers to prevent foreign news networks from operating in Israel if they are deemed by the security services to be harming national security.
The law passed 71 to 10 in its second and third readings in the Knesset plenum.
Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, who spearheaded the effort to pass the law, vowed immediately after the final vote that the Qatari-funded Al Jazeera news channel would be closed down “in the coming days,” saying “there won’t be freedom of expression for Hamas mouthpieces in Israel.”
Karhi, a member of the hardline flank of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party, continued: “We have brought to fruition an effective and swift tool against those who use freedom of the press to harm Israel’s security and IDF soldiers, and who incite to terrorism during a time of war.”
The US expressed concern over the legislation, with White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre saying: “We believe in the freedom of the press. It is critically important. The United States supports the critically important work journalists around the world do, and that includes those who are reporting on the conflict in Gaza. If those reports are true, it is concerning to us.”
In an earlier statement, Netanyahu’s Likud party said that the prime minister would “act immediately to close Al Jazeera” in accordance with the terms of the new law.

Al Jazeera office raided as Israel takes channel off air
Israel's government has moved to shut down the operations of the Al Jazeera television network in the country, branding it a mouthpiece for Hamas. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the cabinet agreed to the closure while the war in Gaza is ongoing. Police raided the Qatari broadcaster's office at the Ambassador hotel in Jerusalem on Sunday. Al Jazeera called claims it was a threat to Israeli security a "dangerous and ridiculous lie". The channel said it reserved the right to "pursue every legal step". Israel's Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi said equipment had been taken in the raid. A video posted by the minister on X shows police officers and inspectors from the ministry entering a hotel room. A BBC team visited the scene, but was prevented from filming or going into the hotel by police.
[...]
The shut down of Al Jazeera in Israel has been criticised by a number of human rights and press groups. The Association for Civil Rights in Israel (ACRI) said they had filed a request to the country's Supreme Court to issue an interim order to overturn the ban. The group said that claims that the broadcaster was a propaganda tool for Hamas were "unfounded", and that Sunday's ban was less about security concerns and more to "serve a more politically motivated agenda, aimed at silencing critical voices and targeting Arab media". The Foreign Press Association (FPA) urged the Israeli government to reconsider its decision, saying the shut down of Al Jazeera in the country should be "a cause for concern for all supporters of a free press". The FPA said in a statement that Israel now joins "a dubious club of authoritarian governments to ban the station", and warned that Mr Netanyahu has the authority to target other foreign outlets that he considers to be "acting against the state". The Committee to Protect Journalists' (CPJ) Program Director Carlos Martinez de la Serna echoed the same concerns, saying: "The Israeli cabinet must allow Al Jazeera and all international media outlets to operate freely in Israel, especially during wartime." The UN's Human Rights office also called the Israeli government to reverse the ban, posting on X: "A free & independent media is essential to ensuring transparency & accountability. Now, even more so given tight restrictions on reporting from Gaza." Foreign journalists are banned from entering Gaza, and Al Jazeera staff there have been some of the only reporters on the ground.

Some 5,000 settlers gathered in Jerusalem on Sunday to celebrate their efforts to resettle the Gaza Strip and bring the coming of the Messiah one step closer. The fact that they remain a minority in Israel was of scant concern to them
''Voluntary' [emigration] is at times a situation you impose until they give their consent,' declared Netanyahu's communications minister on-stage, exposing the true message of the 'Conference for the Victory of Israel': The transfer, or expulsion, of Palestinians from Gaza
Some of the participants were National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, Minister of Heritage Amichai Eliyahu, Likud MK Ariel Kelner, Samaria Regional Council Head Yossi Dagan, Bezalel Smotrich, Orit Strock, Amichai Eliyahu and Yitzhak Wasserlauf, Haim Katz, Amichai Chikli, Shlomo Karhi, and more on top.
A huge map of Gaza hung on one of the walls with the names of the Katif Bloc settlements that were dismantled during the Gaza disengagement in 2005; alongside them were the names of planned future settlements. One of the organizers said that dozens of families had registered for each of the six groups planning to settle in Gaza.
It's an intentional fucking genocide and ethnic cleansing. As if there was any actual discussion about it, but just in case.
At a caucus meeting, right-wing Israeli lawmakers offered advice like 'in the northern Gaza Strip we first have to conquer, annex, destroy all the houses.' Every time someone mentioned the resettlement of Gaza, loud applause erupted "This event must end in a way that resounds everywhere in the Arab world," he said, adding that in the West Bank, "among the Arabs of Israel, in Syria, in Lebanon, everyone must see what has happened to Gaza and understand that this is the last thing he wants to happen in his life."

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: Israeli Minister Participates in Jewish Sukkot Prayer Event on Saudi Soil
Israeli Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, leading an official delegation, has taken part in a Sukkot prayer from Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, and was documented reading from a Torah scroll and holding the Jewish holiday's "four species". Karhi's visit marks the second ministerial visit to the kingdom within a week.
These video clips have naturally garnered significant attention within Arab media outlets, particularly among Palestinian media.
In response, an Iranian journalist made the following comment in a video: "The presence of a statue of Qasem Soleimani on a football pitch in Iran yesterday disturbed the Saudis, leading them to abandon the game. Yet, the Israeli minister's prayer with the four species in the Saudi capital doesn't seem to disturb them?"
That sums up the situation. And it's worth noting that there is now a Saudi ambassador in Iran, while Israel has yet to appoint one.
