Occupied Palestine (Quds News Network)- Israeli Deputy Knesset Speaker Nissim Vaturi has openly called for mass executions in Gaza, intensifying fears over Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians.
Vaturi, a member of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Likud party, said, “We must separate the women and children and kill the adults in Gaza. We are being too considerate.”
He added, “Who is innocent in Gaza? Civilians came out and slaughtered people in cold blood.”
Vaturi also described Palestinians as “scumbags and subhumans,” and claimed, “Nobody in the world wants Gaza’s civilians. They are all pushing them toward Israel.”
The lawmaker went further, threatening the West Bank city of Jenin, saying, “We’ll soon turn Jenin into Gaza.” He called for its destruction, stating, “Don’t bother searching for terrorists. If one is in a house, bring the house down. Tell the women and children to leave.”
This is not Vaturi’s first genocidal remark. He has previously declared, “Gaza and its people must be burned. I have no pity for them.” On social media, he called for bombing Gaza’s food warehouses to “make Palestinians feel the gates of hell have opened.”
In one post, he shared a map of planned Israeli settlements across Gaza, writing, “This is what total victory looks like!”
Vaturi has accused Israeli protesters who call for ending the genocide in exchange for releasing Israeli prisoners of being “a Hamas arm.” He had also implied that Israel might resort to nuclear weapons if it does not receive American arms in a future war with Iran, saying, “We’ll have to use everything we have.”
His statements come amid a worsening genocide in Gaza. Since October 2023, Israel has killed more than 53,000 Palestinians—most of them women and children. The Israeli army continues its siege, blocking food, medicine, and aid. Dozens have died from starvation. Hundreds of thousands are wounded, missing, or trapped under rubble.
Israeli leaders have repeatedly voiced support for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. According to recent polls, over 80% of Jewish Israelis support the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
Despite international outrage and arrest warrants from the International Criminal Court, Israeli leaders continue to advocate for genocide and mass killing in Gaza
