    Yes? Especially if the territory of that state is forcibly taken away from others who are living on it

    Creating the United States was similarly terrible as it involved the genocide and ethnic cleansing of Native Americans. Same with Australia. Same with South Africa. Same with Rhodesia.

    Forcibly taking someone’s home and cleansing an area of an ethnicity is certainly regarded as one of the worst actions a group of people can do. And rightly so

        A lot of countries have a right of return. It works just fine. They may not be able to get the family farm back, but we can’t win everything.

            Sure you can. Israel is doing it right now with genocide.

                South Africa has accused them of genocide. You’re saying South Africa, a former apartheid regime that has since been liberated, is incorrect to do so? What gives you the authority to judge them so? Obviously it isn’t because you’ve read their filings with the International Court of Justice

                The UN definition is public knowledge. It’s not like it’s a secret we have to wait for the clerics to decipher. What they’re doing meets the definition.

                    Because half the ministry and the PM saying they need to clear it out and settle it isn’t proof of intent?
