Things haven’t exactly been going well lately for the Islamic Republic of Iran and its murderous proxies in their jihad against Israel. That has, however, not prevented at least one of those who have been cheering on that jihad from speculating about what the warriors of jihad will do once they have defeated the Little Satan, that is, Israel, and have to deal with the seven million Jews who are living there.
A recent guest on a Lebanese YouTube show that has 351,000 subscribers, billed as a Lebanese nuclear physicist and “international law expert,” sketched out the options, coming to a conclusion that is chilling enough in itself. Yet much more chilling is the fact that the self-appointed guardians of human rights will take little or no notice.
The indispensable Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) reported that Hadi Dalloul appeared on the popular channel, Lebanon On, in order to discuss the Amsterdam pogrom. The discussion was wide-ranging, however, and eventually the interviewer invited Dalloul to venture into speculation about what the looming glorious victory of the jihadis over Israel would be like. He asked Dalloul, "What will the liberation [of ‘Palestine’] look like? Will the Israeli soldiers leave the region? The Israeli population will..."
The interviewer was apparently asking Dalloul to speculate about whether the Israelis, frustrated with their inability to defeat the jihadis, would simply get up and leave the area, returning to Europe, as so many jihad sympathizers and American university students have demanded that they do, even though most Israelis are not actually of European descent.
Dalloul, however, took him to be referring to a scenario in which the Israelis have been defeated, rather than leaving voluntarily, and sketched out several possibilities, explaining: "There is still a dispute about this. Will the Zionists be allowed to flee? Will the Israeli soldiers be allowed to take off their military uniforms, put on civilian clothes, and flee with the civilians, or will they be arrested? Will they be killed or will they be deported to Europe?” With Hamas on the ropes, Hezbollah decapitated, and the Islamic Republic of Iran bereft of air cover, the idea of Israel being completely destroyed and “the Zionists” fleeing the region is fanciful in the extreme, but unfortunately, the Middle East has never lacked for fantasists.
Dalloul envisioned a situation in which the fleeing Israelis would simply have nowhere to go: “Europe is adamant against opening its gates to immigrants. They will not name them 'Israeli Zionists,' so it will not be considered racism. I expect them to say, at first, that Europe is in crisis because of COVID or whatever, and is not ready to accept 'immigrants.' They will say 'immigrants' without specifying.” Here again, this “nuclear physicist” and “international law expert” seems curiously out of touch with reality (yeah, like a Western leftist). With the exception of Hungary and a few others, Europe has not shown the slightest inclination to close its gates to migrants. Whether that would change if millions of Israelis were trying to get in is another question, but the gates of Europe are wide open today, and for years now, multitudes have been taking advantage of that fact.
In Dalloul’s scenario, the Europeans won’t allow the Israelis in because if they do, they’ll just establish another Jewish state somewhere in Israel: "This will shut the door before the Zionists, because if they go there, they will stage a coup and establish a second Israel. I think that what happened in the Netherlands proved to the Europeans what the presence of the Israelis in Europe will look like, let alone after their state was dismantled.”
As far as Dalloul was concerned, that left only two options: “So the dispute right now is whether to carry out a genocide against them, or will the civilians be allowed to leave? Honestly, there are many voices.” Yes, that’s right, this man is openly weighing the pros and cons of committed a new genocide, right there on a popular YouTube channel. And he wasn’t finished.

Dalloul added, "Should there be a genocide against them, or should they be deported? If I deport them abroad but they are not welcome there, there will be [refugee] camps. In these Israeli camps abroad, the first decision they will make will be to teach at school that 'Israel was over there,' and that they should make arrangements to return to Israel. So what have we accomplished? We will have to fight all over again. The [Europeans] for whom they will be a nuisance, will also make efforts to send them back. So it is best for us and for them to get it over with." In other words, kill them all.
What is most remarkable about this is that Dalloul’s analysis has sparked no controversy at all. The UN has been too busy with its latest condemnations of Israel to take any notice of anyone calling for a new genocide of the Jews. Likewise Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. If we didn’t know better, we would almost get the impression that these vaunted international champions of human rights don’t care about the rights, or the lives, of Israelis or Jews at all.
