We keep being reminded that Israel has a right to defend itself, but nobody has ever explained how killing 30,000 civilians, mostly children, helps Israel defend itself.
Was the vietnam war a genocide? The US killed ~600,000 civilians during the Vietnam war.
It's not about the numbers, it's about the intent.
Indeed and israel has very clearly expressed intent.
Sbrenica had 8000 people killed and was deemed a Genocide. And the statements there were far less severe than the extreme genocide rhetoric from israel.
Completely agree. That was what I tried to say.
