The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has sharply criticized Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's statement that Gaza will soon be "completely destroyed" and its population will "leave in large numbers to third countries." CAIR called on Trump administration officials, including President Trump, to speak out against the "clear and unambiguous genocidal aims and actions of the Netanyahu regime." The organization noted that the statement is a stark reminder of the atrocities committed in Gaza, where over 52,000 people, mostly women and children, have been slaughtered, and more than 800 Palestinian children have been murdered since Israel broke the ceasefire in March.
