I have numerous acquaintances who argue that Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza. There argument turns on the question of intent.
The legal definition of genocide requires that the aggressor explicitly states an intention to eradicate the victims. Without an explicit statement of genocidal intent, there can be no genocide.
Well, let’s skirt the word games, shall we?
Numerous Israeli leaders, both in and out of the governement, have clearly, deliberately, purposefully called for the genocidal eradication of all Palestinians from the area known as “greater Israel,” which includes Gaza and the West Bank.
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it’s a duck — even if others insist on calling it a turkey.
Regardless of what my pro-Zionist friends may say, what is happening now in Gaza is a genocide. Confirming evidence is provided below. Just click the link:
