US ambassador to "Israel" Thomas Nides attacked the occupation's fanatic Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich in response to the latter's statements on Israeli outlets, in which he urged the obliteration of a Palestinian city.

"I am really angry with him, he is stupid," said Nides, according to Israel Hayom, who only reported on this matter in Hebrew. Nides then added that Smotrich "has a flight to Washington" adding that "if I could I would throw him off the plane."

Previously, Smotrich, one of the most senior members of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, was quoted by Israeli media saying “I think the village of Huwara needs to be wiped out. I think Israel should do it.”

The fanatic statement came days after the illegal Israeli settlers' rampage, which left one Palestinian murdered and Palestinian cars, homes, and businesses burned to the ground. The rampage followed a week of brutal aggression against Palestinians in Nablus, in which 11 were killed in an Israeli occupation forces (IOF) raid.

It is worth noting that during the 1948 Palestinian Nakba (catastrophe), hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forced out of their homeland by Zionist gangs. In the process, dubbed ethnic cleansing, mass killings were carried out, and mass graves are still unearthed up to this very day. A fact that was most recently portrayed in the movie "Farha".
