It's not a genocide until it's... over?
Not the line of argument I would take.
He does not believe there is a genocide going on right now, but you are correct to call out the victim blaming rhetoric here.I mean... Seriously. There's pro-genocide rhetoric, and then there is explicitly blaming people for their own genocide.

He previously stated 'the Palestinian's ethnically cleansed... themselves' in 1948.
Israel’s war crimes in Gaza are by design, not default
Exactly. Which begs the question of how Israel can justify such similar behavior. It's not, but your remark says a lot.www.religiousforums.com
Nor do I. I see gross, if not criminal, indifference to collateral damage, but nothing akin to an intent to eliminate Palestinians as a people. On the other hand, Hamas is clearly guilty of a such an intent.He does not believe there is a genocide going on right now, ...
I don't fault him or you for that conclusion.Nor do I. I see gross, if not criminal, indifference to collateral damage, but nothing akin to an intent to eliminate Palestinians as a people.
Thank you. (Sincerely)I don't fault him or you for that conclusion.
I completely agree.I do however believe that statements like 'the Palestinian's ethnically cleansed... themselves' are dangerous nonstarters, and I do see a similar pattern of rhetoric in this thread.

So you reject that Palestine is a nation?The Palestinian narrative is an entho-genesis fabricated for the purpose of Oan Arabian nationalism.
One spokesman for As-Sa'iqa does not speak for the entire PLO. The viewpoint that 'The Palestinian people do not exist' is very obviously not the dominant perspective in the PLO, and alluding to this as though it was some sort of confession about the truth about Palestinian nationhood is backhanded and mystifying.. It's best articulated by the PLO:
From my earlier post:UNRWA is promoting this false story, but, includes the *dangerous* rhetoric directing / indoctrinating the children that they must sacrifice themselves rather than compromise. Why are you not writing in opposition to UNRWA? They are the ones who are raising an army against Israel by spreading lies.
I do believe that many of your posts distort the former into the latter, which culminates in dangerous generalizations.If you're saying that the UNRWA has 'supported terrorism' in the sense that terrorists have used resources gathered from UNRWA in their operations, I agree that this is an established fact. That members of Hamas have been students at UNRWA schools or fewer have actually been employed by the UNRWA, I do not disagree.
On the other hand, if you're suggesting that the UNRWA mandate or leadership defend or actively promote terrorism, you've lost me.
So you assert that "ethnic cleansing" is an acceptable fact given the circumstances.Their false narrative caused their own ethnic cleansing.
Nor can I. I can, however, see the idea that UNRWA personnel are so laced with Hamas operatives that it is:I can't see the idea that UNRWA is working to raise an army against Israel as anything more than a fanatical smear campaign.
I see gross, if not criminal, indifference to collateral damage
If you say so.It's certainly not criminal. That's a baseless judgement. Literally baseless.
If you say so.

It's remarkable to me that the dangerous rhetoric of UNRWA seems to get a free pass, but historical fact is ignored and discouraged. That's what I'm seeing in this thread.
