President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren’t behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.
Biden responded that it was “the data I was shown by my Defense Department.”
Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.
Did you read those articles? The first two don’t address or hint at genocidal plans from Israel against the ethnic group “Palestinian” at all. The third article is about one (!) extremist politician who’s party didn’t even get into the parliament because they didn’t have enough votes. That actually goes against your notion that Israels goal is a genocide against Palestinians.
This is not about disputing war crimes from Israel. It’s specifically about the question whether or not Israel wants an ethnical cleansing on Palestinians. And that this is the reason for the actions from their side.
Not sure what you want? Are you hoping that Bebe put at a press release where he details the plan to commit genocide? That politician is a member of the ruling Likud party and yes he is extreme but that just means he is more likely to say the quiet part out loud.
Article 2 of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide details what the international definition of genocide is. It going to be very hard to find new or governments using the word. Because it means that then one needs to act on it or there is a implied complicity to the genocide. So you just need to ask your self do these actions rise to genocide? Because you wouldn’t hear western news or politicians saying regardless of how bad it gets.
