Wanted Israeli war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu has boasted of forcing hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza to listen to his genocidal speech at the UN on Friday – a speech that was booed and which prompted a mass walk-out of delegates. Somehow, it seems unlikely that those bits were transmitted.
Netanyahu: disgusting
Netanyahu posted about his regime’s hacking of mobile phones in Gaza to force his victims to listen to his psychopathic droning:
And in case anyone didn’t have a phone, the occupation parked lorry-mounted speakers to blare it out over Gaza:

The Canary’s Charlie Jaay spoke with people inside Gaza. She noted that:
According to Israeli occupation forces, speakers were placed inside the Gaza Strip on trucks and cranes, and not along the Israel-Gaza border, as Netanyahu had previously claimed.
The military said nine loudspeaker systems were brought into Gaza as part of an ‘influence campaign’ aimed at Palestinian civilians in Gaza and also Hamas, aiming to transmit Netanyahu’s message in both Hebrew and English, a tactic both of psychological warfare and media outreach intended to influence public opinion inside Gaza.
All-too familiar
If this scene seems somehow chillingly familiar, it’s because it is: the Nazis frequently blared music, propaganda and Hitler’s or Himmler’s speeches across the camps in which they concentrated and killed their victims as a form of psychological torture. As the Holocaust Music memorial website notes:
Music from radio broadcasts or record players was played over loudspeakers installed in some camps. In addition to propaganda speeches, military marches and ‘German’ music, in 1933-1934 the guards at Dachau played Richard Wagner’s music in order to ‘re-educate’ political opponents. At Buchenwald, established in 1937, loudspeakers broadcast nightly concerts from German radio, depriving prisoners of sleep. Additionally, march music was played to drown out the sounds of executions…
…From the outset, Nazi camp commanders made deliberate use of music to mentally break the prisoners and to rob them of their dignity and cultural identity…
Music from radio broadcasts or record players was played over loudspeakers installed in some camps… In addition to propaganda speeches.
Netanyahu was actively boasting of behaving like the Nazis. Not that this is a new phenomenon, of course. The whole genocide in Gaza has been a Holocaust inflicted by a state that believes it is ethnically and genetically superior to the victims it slaughters in their hundreds of thousands, with additional cruelty shown to children instead of mercy.
