In an October 2025 interview, former Mossad officer Avner Avraham openly describes a scenario in which “our people” could fire missiles from inside Gaza, have them blamed on Gaza, and then use the attack as justification for renewed Israeli strikes.

When asked whether that was actually possible, Avraham replied, “Everything is possible,” before saying, “We are going to erase Gaza.”

The remarks came during Episode 12 of The Unfiltered View with Israel Ellis, published October 3, 2025.

On September 29, 2026, the Senate blocked a resolution seeking a written government report on the deaths of nine American citizens in the occupied West Bank since January 2022.

The resolution, S. Res. 852, would have required the State Department to provide an unclassified report within 30 days, including information about Americans killed by Israeli settlers or security forces, investigations, and accountability efforts. It also sought information on Palestinian children held in Israeli detention.

The Senate rejected the motion 47–51
