    TL:DR: Based on your nonsense, if the US decides to nuke Netanyahu because he’s a fucking lunatic, that wouldn’t be a genocide because unlimited civilian casualties are legitimate, and so long as you have the most implausible excuse that you’re not targeting a specific ethnic group, you’re in the clear.

    I’ve already shared genocidal quotes from the Israeli Prime Minister and senior defence officials who absolutely control whether or not they commit a genocide - this isn’t a sole lunatic senator with little meaningful power.

    Hamas say crazy shit, and have for years - which is why I’ve already asked you why Israel backed their rise to power over the secular moderates knowing that they were insane if not to create the pretext for the genocide you’re denying.

    Your definition of genocide is stupid enough that it includes any ethnically motivated hate crime or even marketing campaign. If I say “I’m going to slap a white person” then do it, that’s genocide by your definition. If I launch an advertising campaign looking to sell guns to Israeli settlers in the West Bank, even that’s genocide by your unfathomably moronic definition. Yet you insist that in spite of Israeli leadership shouting about exterminating Palestinians and Muslims, tens of thousands of civilians killed, including ten thousand children, countless warcrimes, the maintenance of an apartheid state, the maintenance of what the UN has called an open air concentration camp, and rendering the area uninhabitable, that’s not a genocide.

    You are both utterly monstrous and pitifully stupid.

    Also breaking news: it seems that some of the perpetrators of October 7 were on the UN payroll.

    Speaking of moronic bullshit - have you got a source for that more credible than The Daily Genocide Afficionado? I’ll remind you that Hamas were on the Israeli payroll, and I’m pretty sure I’ve already shared quotes substantiation this.

      If you’ve read any history, you’d know the US did use nuclear weapons on cities before. Twice in fact. It’s not considered genocide.

      Hamas say crazy shit, and have for years - which is why I’ve already asked you why Israel backed their rise to power over the secular moderates

      That’s just conspiracy bullshit. “The Jews have been orchestrating everything all along” type conspiracy shit.

      If I say “I’m going to slap a white person” then do it, that’s genocide by your definition.

      You seem hyper-focussed on race. If you go into villages and massacre every man woman and child you find there, that’s genocide. Hamas murdered people for being the ethnicity they hate.

      Yet you insist that in spite of Israeli leadership shouting about exterminating Palestinians and Muslims

      They are trying to kill Hamas. Shocking that Israel would want to kill Hamas in the Israel-Hamas war.

      You seem to think Hamas = Palestine. Hamas is a terrorist group. Seems racist on your part to think of all Palestinians as terrorists.

      Speaking of moronic bullshit - have you got a source for that more credible than The Daily Genocide Afficionado?

      Maybe try to get out your information bubble and open any major news outlet? This isn’t exactly obscure information.
