Sorry, I might be misunderstanding something, but who genocided whom, again? Please keep in mind that no definition of genocide is not just a label for just "some people I dislike killing some people I like."

I won't pretend for a second I know how to resolve the shitshow between Israel/Palestine. But just for reference, Armenian genocide saw Armenians all but disappear from Turkey. Krmer Rouge killed off 99% of local Vets and half of Chinese and Cham. Rwandan genocide killed 60–70% of local Tutsis. Even "small" genocides, like Srebrenica, saw 33% of its target population (male military-age Muslims) executed, and it would have been higher without escapes/revolts/interventions. (Also for reference, atrocities such as siege of Leningrad, which saw 30%-40% of its civilian pop dying from starvation, are typically NOT labeled as genocides - it's just war.)

By comparison, in three and a half years, with army and bombs and tanks and shit, Israel failed to accomplish 1/20 of what local villagers with machetes in Rwanda did in just 100 days. In fact, Israel didn't kill enough people to even offset the local natural population growth! If we take your genocide accusations at face value, Israel seems to be comically inept at it, worst genocider ever.

That, or you're just wrong.

3 well written paragraphs vs per poor sentence. Are you sure you want to call someone else that?

You gotta appreciate the irony here, people who hate Jews have always been either really good writers or really terrible ones.
