“Conquer Gaza and finish this cancerous growth…Gaza shall be treated like Khan Yunis.”

“Conquer Gaza and finish this cancerous growth…Gaza shall be treated like Khan Yunis.”

Video footage of Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu dehumanizing the Palestinian people of Gaza by referring to two million people as a cancer while expressing the need, in his view, to conquer Gaza during an interview with Israeli media channel 14.

In 2007, Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu advocated for the carpet bombing of Palestinians regardless of the price. He also published literature for the newsletter Eretz Yisrael Shelanu calling for the state-sanctioned revenge against Palestinians, allegedly calling for children of the terrorists to be hung, according to the Haaretz.

Furthermore, in 2010 Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu spearheaded a letter signed by 50 other rabbis, urging Israelis to refrain from renting housing to Palestinians.
