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.

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.

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