Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu says Israel is advancing the destruction of Gaza, and that the Strip will be made totally Jewish.
“The government is racing ahead for Gaza to be wiped out,” Eliyahu tells Haredi radio station Kol Barama. “Thank God, we are wiping out this evil. We are pushing this population that has been educated on Mein Kampf.”
Eliyahu says Gaza will be cleared for Jewish settlement, but says Jewish towns won’t be “fenced in inside cantons.”
“All Gaza will be Jewish,” he says, though he clarifies that Arabs who are loyal to Israel will be tolerated.
“We aren’t racists,” the far-right Otzma Yehudit politician adds.
