Come on John, “deportations” is not an idiom for anything, whether we Americans do it to illegal immigrants or Israel does it to Palestinians.

Is there an official explanation for the destruction that leads one to conclude that it is was not intended as a form retaliation or reprimand? Would you car to offer an expanation yourself?
