      I would look up the definition of genocide. What hamas did was objectively bad, but not a genocide. What israel is doing is.

        So why are Arabs living in Israel if they want to commit a genocide?

        Seems Israel is really bad at it, lmao

      Ignore Hamas. Read the infamous report from the US that was used by Israel as evidence they weren’t committing genocide. The report cleared Israel, and so it was used as a defense.

      But actually read the report.

      According to the US / Israel, they’re holding up food, making it difficult to access, making it get stuck in transit, making it get lost, making zero effort to facilitate / distribute, making it dangerous for people to solve it themselves, etc.

      But they never triggered the video game-like definition of genocide. They didn’t use god-like powers to absolutely withhold food. They didn’t declare “I’m doing a genocide.” Technically some people could eat sometimes, and some pencil pusher can’t change definitions on the fly, therefore no genocide.

        Hamas steals food from their citizens. Israel should not be responsible for providing aid to an area they are at war with, yet they do.
