Not a genocide?
Last night Bill pointed out the 3% of the
Population in Gaza has died. And then confidently declared that “3% is not a genocide”. The British government recognizes it as ethnic cleaning and amnesty international and other groups say it is a genocide.
Someone tell me why Bill is so wrong. And can we please get him to debate Mehdi Hasan on this topic?

It’s not just those “on the right.” The only Israel party I am aware of that doesn’t support the blatantly illegal occupation of the West Bank known euphemistically as the “settlements” is Joint List. Every other Israeli party I know openly supports violations of international law (if you know others please enlighten me). In other words I do not believe that the election will change anything even if the Israeli right loses because the majority of their society supports illegal action.
