Israel is waging a deliberate war of extermination.

0:04.0

That's according to the former Prime Minister of Israel, Ehud Olmar, who himself, it should be said,

0:10.1

perpetrated war crimes against the Palestinian people.

0:13.0

It's in a devastating piece written for the Israeli newspaper, Haret, and in practice,

0:19.2

constitutes a confession to genocide. Let's go through what he's written

0:23.0

and why this is so important. Now, Elmont says this. The Israeli government is waging a
