“The plan (Dalet) included the following clear reference to the methods to be employed in the process of cleansing the (Palestinian) population:

'Destruction of villages (setting fire to, blowing up, and planting mines in the debris), especially those population centers which are difficult to control continuously...

In the event of resistance, the armed force must be destroyed and the population must be expelled outside the borders of the state.”
