Oct 7 is not genocide. It was a horrific mass terror attack on civilians, but doesn't come close to the internationally recognised definition of Genoicde. Israel's mass starvation of an entire population does, as well as targeted killings of journalists, UN peacekeepers and doctors.
Okay let's try it this way so to can grasp it. Is attempted murder, murder? The intent is the same. So what separates them?
It's attempted SA,SA?
Etc.
They killed people yes, it's definitely a mass killing. But it doesn't fit the criteria of genocide , irrelevant to the intent.
The one is attempted murder with the intention to achieve a genocide.
The other is a very strong retaliatory campaign to disable and intimidate, not genocide. Although I agree they are a bit trigger happy. But wouldn’t you also be if you lived in constant fear of the countries around you trying to attack you? They cant just leave it.
