    That’s why calling this a “genocide” is somewhat of a misnomer that falls short of the point: Gaza isn’t about “race”, ethnicity, or even religion, it’s an extermination towards a land grab for control over territorial waters with oil/gas deposits.

    Persecution of Palestinians in the rest of Israel… that one is “only” a genocide.

      Bibi is essentially going the route of “Hitler didn’t do enough.” Setting aside the moist, dripping historical irony, which cannot be understated, this is what evil looks like.

      You can’t use the Holocaust as a foundational tenet while also trying to exterminate “others.” It doesn’t work that way.

        "Jewish law doesn’t apply to gentiles.” That’s what they say when this is brought up amongst themselves.
