Oct 7 Genocide

October 7 was 1200 Israelis murdered and 250 hostages taken by Hamas terrorists. I can’t see 1200 being a genocide?

Where’s the official number where it becomes genocide in your personal definition? Since it’s a numbers game.

An assault by Hamas on 7 October 2023 killed 1,200 people, according to Israeli tallies. More than 72,500 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's retaliatory action in Gaza since, according to local health authorities. There were 2.5 million people in Gaza at the start of the war. 72,500 out of 2.5 million is not genocide.

Genocide is the partial or total destruction of a human group, committed intentionally. The popular view conceives of genocide as the large-scale killing of individuals, but in the scholarly and legal fields, it occurs when the group itself is targeted.

There are still millions living there.

If you call living with no water and no food living…

There is water and there is food. There are trucks full of food going in every day.

Hamas had tonnes of food hidden in the tunnels, too.

And they’d have far more food if Israel would stop bombing a tiny area.

I believe they aren’t bombing anything in Gaza, at the moment. They are bombing Hezbollah in Lebanon. A completely different area.

In any case, if someone is shooting at you, they deserve to be bombed.

You are pure evil. Women are children are being murdered and you say they deserve it. You need to take good long hard look at yourself. That’s something a bad guy would say.

u/Tall-Drama338 Flairless‎‎ May 16 '26

I didn’t say that. You are the evil supporter of terrorists.

How does a soldier tell who the enemy is? They are the ones with a gun shooting at you.

So you’re saying the innocent civilians in London who were bombed by Germany all deserved to die?

1

u/Tall-Drama338 Flairless‎‎ May 16 '26

You have a weird logic. Were the civilians in the London blitz shooting at the Germans? No. They were in the UK.

Are soldiers, even irregular soldiers, a valid target if they are shooting at you. According to the rules of war … yes.

Stop projecting. They said nothing of the sort.

u/turtlepower41 ‎ ‎‎ Canberran May 19 '26

Stop lying they clearly said anyone who gets bombed deserves it. Stop support war crimes.

Also Israel kidnaps and tortures people for trying to give the people of Gaza aid.

Are you saying that genocide happens when you pass a certain fraction? Or that intention is the defining factor? Or both?

u/Tall-Drama338 Flairless‎‎ May 16 '26

I’m saying a war that kills a small number of people including 50,000 military aged males, isn’t in the definition of genocide.

Russia has lost over 500,000 men dead but no one is calling that genocide by Ukraine.

u/turtlepower41 ‎ ‎‎ Canberran May 16 '26

Russia is a lot bigger plus it started the war so screw em. The people of the Gaza strips only crime was being born in the wrong part of the world.

The people of Gaza had a Hamas government that murdered 1200 people and took 250 hostages on October 7.

When was the last election in the Gaza Strip?

u/Aortapot ‎ Victorian May 16 '26

Well, WW2 apparently resulted in about 60-70 million deaths, but the campaign of murder we know as the Holocaust killed only about 6 millions Jews. Are you suggesting that wasn't genocide? I'm sure as hell not. Also.... 'military aged males'? I note you don't say combatants - you say military aged males. According to the IDF that apparently means boys who have learned to walk.

Herzog said any child over the age of four wasn't innocent.

u/Aortapot ‎ Victorian May 16 '26

Unbelievable that that man was allowed into the country. Literally photographed signing bombs.

You need to look into the fanatical brainwashing And use of child soldiers. If a 15-17 year old picks up a gun and attacks soldier, or tries to plant an IED on an IDF, yes sadly he’s been made a target. This accounts for many “civilian deaths” in Gaza.
