The Western media remains largely oblivious to the bureaucratic coup redrawing the map of the West Bank. Annexation, for all intents and purposes, is complete.
So not only has Israel annexed the entirety of the West Bank, but they have executed every Arab living in it? Wow, the article should have laid that out more clearly.
Pretty much all of them in Germany and the occupied territories were killed. The survivors hid or fled. There were about 3 million Palestinians living in the West Bank two years ago. How many have died due to Israeli action in that time?
I’m not saying the deaths are not tragic. Is it genocide or do we cheapen the word?
In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:
I argued with a guy that the genocide under Trump would be accelerated versus what was happening under Biden and likely under Harris. He more or less wrote that genocide is genocide.
Now, I understood that genocide had degrees and was the act of wiping a people out, even if in progress, but here I have learned that there are even weaker forms. To me, that weakens the claim of genocide overall, and we need some qualifiers or terms to help distinguish the different levels.
In the present thread, taking control over a larger portion of the West Bank than the ~60% the Israelis had since Camp David is “genocide.”

Jewish people are alive. Was the holocaust not a genocide?

The definition does not require murder of every member. It also specifies intent, not completion.
Ok, so they did the genocide when originally annexing the West Bank.
lol what? You just enjoy running cover for genocide that much that you’ll do it in your free time? Fuckin sad
They actually get paid per comment and engagement, it would be sad if they are not even getting paid
