Amit Halevi, a member of Israel’s ruling Likud party has said he wants to “cleanse” the Gaza Strip of Palestinians before they launch another attack, according to Middle East Eye on April 1st.

The MP told Radio 103FM on Sunday that “occupation is the nature of war”.

“We want to occupy the territory to cleanse it of the enemy – otherwise, it will kill your children and kidnap your grandchildren again,” he said.
