NYT: ‘“This is ethnic cleansing, to put it simply,” Ephraim Sneh, a retired brigadier general and former minister of health, said of Israeli settlers’ attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank.’

And: ‘But in the shadows of those conflicts, a quieter front has emerged in the West Bank. Armed Israeli settlers, emboldened by the most right-wing government in the nation’s history, raid and torch Palestinian homes, mosques and villages with seeming impunity, openly trying to drive them out of the territory.’

As well: “What is Jewish supremacy?” [said] Mr. Ya’alon, long considered a security hawk (…) “Eighty years after the Holocaust, ‘Mein Kampf’ in reverse. The master race is us.”’

Also: ‘“But what is happening today in the West Bank?” he [Gal Levertov, the former head of the international division at the Ministry of Justice] added. “It’s indefensible.”’

Jewish supremacy. The antisemites are delighted, and a posthumous victory for Hitler.
