Welcome to the The Generals' Plan documentation project

Let us begin with something that everyone knows ..or maybe not everyone as current generations did not grow up in an era when there was no video but celluloid. And even then, when there were videos (VHS and Betamax), there was no YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, TikTok or Instagram. The first Internet video hosting site was ShareYourWorld.com, founded in 1997.

There are many definitions of history. However, the most simple way to explain it is to use the pictured images.

A celluloid film consists of a series of frames. Each frame is part of a scene which, in return, may be part of a series of scenes. They all together form what is called a sequence. So, a movie is built up by a series of sequences.

If you watch the whole film, you will see a chronology of frames, scenes, and sequences. In today's video technology, you don't need to stretch the movie. It's already done while you load it in a video editor.

Visualizing history is similar to this, meaning that you can imagine history as a complete movie unless you cut it into pieces to remove frames, scenes, or even a whole sequence that you don't want people to watch.

Like every movie, any event must have a beginning as nothing happens in a vacuum. There is always a main cause or root, which always lies in the very past.

And so it is about Northern Gaza.

 

Gaza was once the land of the Philistines, a people, first described by the Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle. They were an ancient people who lived on the south coast of Canaan during the Iron Age.

In 1994 the Israeli colonizers began a phased transfer of governmental authority in the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian Authority (PA) under the terms of the Oslo Accords that were signed by the colonizers and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).

Before the Gaza "problem" emerged, the enclave was part of the League Of Nations (predecessor of the UN) mandate of Palestine under British rule after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.

It came under Egypt's military rule after European colonists, migrants, and settlers managed to drive the British out of the rest of Palestine in 1948.

Fifteen years later, Gaza became part of a problem that the British and the French also created like the Palestinian problem from 1916-1917

It all began with France and Britain losing the Suez Canal after the then-president Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized it. The two countries wanted the strategically important canal back. They asked the Israelis for help. In return, France would help them with the secret construction of the Dimona nuclear reactor.

So, the Israelis attacked Egypt by invading Gaza in 1956 and colonized it until 2005, not occupied as there were at least 21 permanent settlements in the enclave. The West Bank is also under colonization since 1967 as there are more than 100 permanent but illegal settlements.

In Gaza, the "incident" of an Israeli truck that rammed a car killing four Palestinians from Jabaliyah inside, and the way how the Israelis mishandled the case, triggered the first Intifada. A bloody crackdown by the colonizing armed forces has prompted colonized people to form a resistance, that we know as Hamas.

That's how it all started, not on October 7, 2023.

The existence of Hamas is by the Israelis themselves. The group didn't emerge from out of the blue.

The Israeli crackdown of the First Intifada that inflamed the forming of Hamas, and the year in which the resistance group was formed in 1987, has been systematically silenced as "Hamas is a terrorist organization" is delegitimizing the Law Of Belligerent Occupation.

The United Nations has designated Hamas as a political movement while its armed wings are within the frame of the Law Of Belligerent Occupation, which states that occupied people have the right to form armed groups to resist occupation.

Members of the Hamas have the full right to resist the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the annexation of the West Bank. If they take and use that right, they must distinguish themselves from the civilian population, or based on articles 43 & 44 of the Additional Protocol I of the Geneva Conventions, at least carry their weapons openly during attacks and deployments.

But (pro-)Israeli entities and governments are utterly saying that Hamas is a "foreign terrorist organization" while this claim is distracting the fact, that the Israelis are latterly foreigners as they are descendants of foreigners who came from Europe.

On November 20, 2023, a publication titled "Let’s Not be Intimidated by the World," was found. In that document, the author, Israeli ret. Major General Giora Eiland argued that all Palestinians in Gaza are legitimate targets and that even a “severe epidemic" in Gaza will "bring victory closer.”  He did not explain how a 'severe epidemic' should be achieved.

Wars are normally fought with tanks, soldiers, and aircraft. But the Israelis were also deploying bulldozers equipped with road breakers. The bulldozers had our interest because they have been used in the West Bank to destroy roads in Palestinian towns, villages, and refugee camps. But in Gaza, the Israelis were breaking up streets where sewage and water supply pipelines are laid underneath. In July 2024, polio broke out in Gaza.

In September 2024, an article was found written by the same general. He criticized the military leadership for failing to achieve goals, and that the command should include officers from the field. Giora Eiland made a video in which he explained his ideas about destroying Hamas by employing a 'surrender or starve' strategy. He argued the following:

Action plan

Phase One – Evacuation of the population from the northern Gaza Strip.

The IDF should give warning and demand the evacuation and departure of all civilians remaining in the area (approximately 300,000 people) residing in this area southward within one week. At the end of the given time, the northern Gaza Strip will be declared a closed military area.

Phase 2 – Siege

In such a situation, a full and tight siege can be imposed on it, which includes preventing movement to and from it, and preventing the entry of supplies including food, fuel, and water. The siege will only be lifted if the enemy imprisoned in this area, approximately 5,000 terrorists, lay down their weapons and surrender. After the enemy surrenders, it will be possible to enter and cleanse the Gaza City area almost without the enemy

Result

Such a significant step would bring Hamas's surrender closer, but even if Sinwar prefers to continue fighting, it would be possible to carry out this plan in additional areas (Rafah, the central camps, etc.).

In addition, it is assumed that the leverage of pressure through supply control will bring a hostage deal closer and allow it to be carried out under more favorable conditions for Israel.

International law

The imposition of a siege on a besieged enemy is legitimate and permissible under the strictest international law. The condition required for the implementation of a siege is to provide a reasonable opportunity for the civilian population to leave the area through safe corridors before it is imposed. A siege is the most effective way to end wars quickly while reducing the number of deaths both on our side and among the civilians on the other side.

The US Department of Defense's War Manual and a conference on sieges held at Harvard University in 2022 unequivocally state that sieges are legitimate and permissible war tactics, including starving the enemy to death, as long as the necessary steps are taken at the same time to assist those not involved, with priority given to evacuating

The plan was approved by Netanyahu in the first week of October 2024.

However, hundreds of documented videos and photos show that the whole operation did not hallmark the goal of achieving the surrender of Hamas but intended incorporation of Northern Gaza to the territory that the European ancestors of the Israelis took from indigenous people.

The Northern Gaza: The Generals' Plam is part of the Gaza documentation. Here, we document videos, photos, and documents as part of our research about the claim that the plan is about pressuring Hamas either to surrender or starve.

We're sorry for the inconvenience that we can explain.

The archive (more than 30.000 files) is too large and upgrading the used ISP package is not the solution.

GLOSM Documentation is a self-funded project. Technically, it is more than keeping a (huge) website online.

In addition to standard costs like your domain and package, the larger the website, the more web space you need, and the higher the monthly cost.

Then, there are extra monthly costs, such as keeping the website secure and protected. Hardware doesn't last a lifetime. You have to update, repair, or replace hardware parts occasionally.

The documentation runs locally for the reasons above.
