Former chief of military intelligence Aharon Haliva stated that the high death toll of Palestinians, including the 50,000 dead in Gaza, is necessary for future generations. He suggested that for every Israeli killed in the October 7 Hamas attack, 50 Palestinians should die, regardless of age. He referred to this need as a form of instilling a message for future generations and mentioned that a Nakba experience is necessary to understand the cost. This endorsement marks a significant statement within the Israeli military establishment regarding the ongoing conflict.
The fact that there are already 50,000 dead in Gaza is necessary and required for future generations. For every Israeli killed on Oct. 7, 50 Palestinians should die.
From time to time, they need a Nakba to feel the cost. It is the first time a former senior Israeli military figure has been heard endorsing a high Palestinian death toll.
