"the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group."
genocide: the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group.

So that's not what's happening and it's not Israel's goal.

In what reality are you living that that ISN'T what's going on, right now?
Yes, Israel is trying to destoy Hamas. But Hamas is not a nation nor is it an ethnic group. Hamas is a terrorist organization.

Palestine. They're destroying Palestine and killing large numbers of Palestinians.
Do you believe the 15,000+ people killed in Gaza were all Hamas? Are the hundreds of people whose lands are being stolen as they are murdered in the West Bank Hamas?
Define Palestine.
As for killing Palestinians, do you understand that Hamas terrorists - who are supposed to be the leaders of the Palestinians in Gaza - are using Palestinians as human shields? Do you understand that the Hamas cowards hide behind Palestinian women and children?
The WB is a different topic, feel free to start a thread to discuss the WB.

The whole "human shields" argument is bogus when Israel is carpet bombing Gaza.

Why does that justify genocide against Palestinian civilians?
Are the Palestinians on the West Bank - where there is no Hamas and Hamas have no influence - also being used as human shields? Is that why the IDF are arming Israeli settlers and sending them to take Palestinian land on the West Bank? To remove these extremely remote human shields?
I guess October 7th was just Hamas killing a bunch of potential human shields too, eh? Any excuse to justify killing civilians.
The WB is a clear example of Israel engaging in genocide.
^ a truly stupid statement.
That is ignorant rubbish that serves only to cheapen the term. Did your school fail to teach about the holocaust?

How so?

Your local anarchist.
So what do you suggest? That Israel just bombs and shoots through the human shields?
Israel pointing the finger at Hamas and saying they are hiding behind civilians does not give them the right to kill said civilians. As the supposed moral agent in the conflict, they should not kill civilians. It is up to Israel to come up with a solution that does not involve genocide of civilians. If they cannot or will not do that, then they are evil terrorists.

So, all genocides need to be on the level of the holocaust in order for the term genocide to apply?
I guess practically no genocide other than the holocaust has ever happened, then. Must be very convenient to be able to get away with doing whatever you want, as long as it's not literally the holocaust.

Meanwhile, alleging that Israel doing a genocide is "ignorant rubbish" because what it's doing does not equal the holocaust is clearly sage, well-reasoned wisdom.
Remember, guys. Ethnic displacement and apartheid are fine. Because the holocaust happened, so...
genocides
The claim that Israel's intent is the elimination of the Palestinian people is a disgusting lie.
