Blight Supremacy: 'There is nothing to occupy. Gaza City itself no longer exists'
/Gaza is not being “occupied”- it is being erased. The tanks are not entering to control, but to destroy. What happened in Rafah and Beit Hanoun is now being repeated in central Gaza: in recent days, the neighbourhoods of Tuffah, Sabra and Zeitoun have become remnants and ruins.
When people speak of the “occupation of Gaza City”, it is a term meant to deceive the world. For nearly two years, the Israeli military has been on Gaza’s territory, yet there is no form of military governance in place.
Instead, there is a policy of total destruction, aiming to erase what remains of the city and its inhabitants. In practice, one of the world’s oldest cities is being wiped off the map.
The process of erasure unfolds through air strikes and indiscriminate shooting, alongside bulldozers digging and destroying entire blocks. Infrastructure, electricity, water, hospitals, and schools no longer exist.
The destruction is absolute, to the point that residents say, “There is nothing to occupy. The city itself no longer exists.”
This is the annihilation of both human life and the land; the extinguishing of every living breath. The rhetoric of “occupation” is intended to obscure the reality of genocide. The goal is not to manage the city, but to render it uninhabitable.
In this way, Gaza has become a global example of how the political language of control can serve as a veil for a policy of destruction.
Raw violence
Even if Israel attempts to portray Gaza’s destruction as a victory, the true outcome will be the opposite, with heavy political and existential costs. Against such large-scale annihilation, even diplomatic “successes” will not survive.
All masks have fallen. The Zionist project, which for decades wrapped itself in slogans of “democracy” and “enlightenment”, has been stripped bare. What remains is raw violence: military and racial supremacy, enforced through expulsion, uprooting and land appropriation. These are its cornerstones. [MORE]
