Over the past 24 hours, hospitals in Gaza have been under relentless bombardment. Al-Shifa hospital complex, the biggest health facility where MSF staff are still working, has been hit several times, including the maternity and outpatient departments, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries. The hostilities around the hospital have not stopped.

    Then better look at Israel’s actions instead of only listening to the words you want to hear. Letting people leave a combat area is not something that is done when you want to eradicate them. Shooting at old people and torturing families to death as Hamas did is what a genocide looks like. Murdering people who want to flee is genocide material.

      You’re beyond clueless. Genocide and incitement to genocide are inchoate crimes, i.e., you don’t have to successfully eradicate a population to be guilty of it, just to commit actions with intent. Not to even get into the openly genocidal actions that have occurred. Read the links I sent you or shut up, it’s covered in absolutely exhaustive detail.

      Not continuing this conversation.

      edit for a more precise definition:

      Incitement to genocide is a crime under international law which prohibits inciting (encouraging) the commission of genocide. An extreme form of hate speech, incitement to genocide is considered an inchoate offense and is theoretically subject to prosecution even if genocide does not occur, although charges have never been brought in an international court without mass violence having occurred. “Direct and public incitement to commit genocide” was forbidden by the Genocide Convention in 1948. Incitement to genocide is often cloaked in metaphor and euphemism and may take many forms beyond direct advocacy, including dehumanization and accusation in a mirror.

        commit actions with intent

        There you go. No intent shown - actually the opposite even. You seem convinced there is a genocide going on and completely ignore all the signs that point ro it being obviously not one.
