Israeli MK calls for 'Nakba in Gaza'

An Israeli member of the Knesset is calling for another Nakba against the Palestinian people after Hamas launched an attack on Israel.
"Nakba in Gaza and Nakba to anyone who dares to join!" Ariel Kallner, a member of the Likud party in Israel, said on X.
The Nakba, or catastrophe, refers to the ethnic cleansing of Palestine by Zionist militias to make way for the creation of Israel in 1948.
That military campaign by Zionist forces killed thousands of Palestinians, destroyed hundreds of villages and forcibly expelled 80 percent of the Palestinian population from their homeland, forcing them to become refugees.
