You sound pretty crazy. Even Netanyahu knows this is a genocide. He’s just a shit human being though.
Yes, as everyone knows, if you accurately call out genocide when you see it, you actually want there to be genocide. You sick ghouls need to stop noticing genocide so I can go back to concern trolling in peace.
you can’t argue with the left wing nutjobs here.
they will conveniently lump israel as one body and then go on to separate hamas and palestine as if they are not one and the same.
Oct 7th gave israel an excuse to launch an all out against hamas,this is the result. if the palestinians want peace in the region,time to point to israel where these terrorists are hiding.
Freudian slip or moment of clarity?
lemme go ask your mom
You said “time to point to isreal where these terrorists are hiding” when said like that it means you are saying Israel are the terrorists. Also, its Israel not israel.
nazi, grammar.
Do you know where your local terrorist cell is hiding? Surely the Mossad can figure all that out without murdering civilians?
Also, pretty ironic of you to lump left wing nut jobs together as one group…
fuck if i care what you think.

Would it be better if we call it an alleged genocide until the dust settles?
“Alleged” is for when there’s an ongoing legal case. If you shot someone you’d be a suspected shooter until you’re charged with a crime. If you’re legally charged for murder, you’d then be called an alleged murderer. If you’re convicted of murder then you’d be called a murderer.
If you apply the same rules, then the media should only use words that describe what happened (bombing, shooting, shelling etc.) and not use words that indicate it’s a crime until there are legal charges.
It doesn’t matter how much you feel that Kyle Rittenhouse murdered people, the media won’t refer to him that way because he wasn’t convicted. Responsible media will handle a word like genocide with even more care since its an even bigger crime than murder.
Ultimately it will be history that will judge whether it’s a genocide or conversely whether people have been making false accusations of genocide as apart of a propaganda campaign. Nobody serious in any position of responsibility will use the word genocide unless there’s compelling evidence. And so far we’ve only seen the kinds of things that happen in every war occurring. So it’s rightly termed a war no matter how many times one side of the conflict want it called a genocide. This is obvious propaganda, and responsible media source won’t be a part of that.
I guess ethnic cleansing wouldn’t fit also? Seems more accurate.
Ethnic cleansing was a term made up by the Clinton admin to excuse why they didn’t need to intervene to prevent genocide in Rwanda. Anytime you see “ethnic cleansing”, it’s a pretty easy and accurate replacement if you say “genocide”.
“Responsible media” left the tent a long time ago.
It’s a genocide you jackass.
Israel must comply with key ICJ ruling ordering it do all in its power to prevent genocide against Palestinians in Gaza
BULLSHIT. It’s a genocide. Quit trying to sell us on the same tired shit.
Why not?
