Hanania has called for like 20% of the Palestinian population to be killed and the entire Gaza Strip ethnically cleansed. I have to think that violates the terms of service (I do not think Hanania should be removed for this).

Interestingly, despite my general extreme distaste for Hanania, I don't think there's an actual solution to the conflict that isn't forcible integration of the population so they cease being radicalized. And I don't know if that will actually work. But it doesn't seem like "hide under the Iron Dome" is necessarily going to work, either, sadly.

I'm in agreement with Hanania, but not the part where 80% emigrates to the west. Either they got to Egypt or 100% die.

I'm simply stating that it's quite obvious that what he's saying violates red lines of even the most liberal free speech codes on such platforms. I would give those red lines up, but if they exist and its enforced selectively then its clearly just who/whom.

Do you have a link to where Hanania said that?

I don't think he ever called for killing 20% of Gazans. This may be a misrepresentation of this: https://twitter.com/RichardHanania/status/1733853263332622413.

You can read his article on the topic here: https://www.richardhanania.com/p/israel-must-crush-palestinian-hopes.

If you go on his sub stack there are several essays about Israel/Palestine. His desire to ethnically cleanse Gaza is quite on display.

I don't remember if the 20% figure was in his essays or one of his tweets. He uses his twitter feed for the more outrageous statements he thinks will get ratioed and drive traffic to his sub stack (also you get paid by the click on twitter these days).
