The subtitled video doesn't say anything about ethnic cleansing, the minister says he would like to see those who were exiled from Gaza in 2005 returned and allow Jews to live there again. He makes no mention of displacing the current population.
> Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir says he would be “very happy to live in Gaza” following the war, musing that a mass exodus of Palestinians could create room for a significant influx of Israeli settlers.
I don't know what else to call a "exodus of Palestinians" to "create room". This is pretty much the textbook definition of than ethnic cleansing. And "voluntary emigration"? Right. To where? And after 80 years of fighting over all of this it's suddenly going to be all that "voluntary". Yeah...
This is not some rando we can perhaps interpret in good faith; this is a man who for years had the portrait of terrorist Baruch Goldstein in his office and has repentantly praised him. This, combined with many other things he has said and done over the last 15 years or so means it's pretty clear what he's saying: getting rid of the Untermensch to make lebensraum for the Übermenschen.
Hamas is a complex entity, the ruling party of Gaza as well as a militant terrorist arm. The population of Gaza is around two million people, all of Hamas is maybe 50,000 people, terrorist arm is some subset of that, and the people who actually participated in the Oct 7 atrocities are maybe a few thousand counting all support personnel. I think that easily qualifies as a few people compared to two million.
