Netanyahu and his ultra-Zionist regime are pursuing the ‘Greater Israel’ project (Eretz Yisrael HaShlema). This claims the entire area from the River Nile, north-east to include the southern part of Turkey and south-east to include Iraq, Kuwait, west to include a large part of Saudi Arabia and about two-thirds of Egypt. This is based on the Zionist belief that around 2000 BC Abraham said ‘God’ had told him he and his descendants have the exclusive right to this land as defined in the Torah.

This includes annexation of half the Red Sea, the Suez Canal, the Sinai, Jordan, Gaza, the West Bank, Syria and Lebanon. Even the island of Cyprus is included in their ambitions. There is uproar in Cyprus right now from the native inhabitants as great tracts of land in the south of the island are being bought by Zioinist Israelis.

Ridiculous you may say and I would agree with you it seems so but Netanyahu has repeatedly shown his map of his ‘Greater Israel’ in public briefings confirming his government’s intent. Google it. You can see him holding a map with the area shaded in green.

There is also the ‘Ben Gurion Canal Project’ to cut a canal from Ashkelon, just north of Gaza, down to Eilat at the northern tip of the Red Sea. This would bypass the Suez Canal, just in case that ambition cannot be realised.

This is the reality of the ambition of the regime which is crazed with blood lust, expansionism and Zionist supremacy. Everything it is currently doing in Gaza and the West Bank is part of the process.
