Abstract

In October 2023, the Israeli army began a campaign of genocide in the context of seventeen years of blockade and effective occupation of the Gaza Strip, converted into a huge human overcrowding camp and subject to frequent bombings since 2007. The Hamas attack on October 7 became a casus belli for the Israeli government and its occupation army, but the enormous violence exerted on Gaza, and its entire population, must be studied in the context of the action of a nationalist and religious fundamentalist ideology, called neo-Zionism. We consider the genocidal war on Gaza as the last practical consequence of this ideology. This radical drift of Zionism taken to its extreme largely explains the daily massacres in Gaza, as well as the escalation of violence by the settler movement and the occupying army in East Jerusalem and the West Bank. Thus, our objective is to analyze violence in Palestine in its proper context, especially the ideological context from which it derives.
