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.

A nuke would delete Israel and its inhabitants - you can stop demonstrating how moronic your definition of genocide is now - my point is well and truly made.

That's just conspiracy bullshit.

Sigh here it is from the IDF leadership at the time among others... Again, why did Israel fund Hamas if not to create the pretext for the genocide they're now committing?

Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, (Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s) telling a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat.

The Israeli government gave me a budget, and the military government gives to the mosques.

Unsurprisingly, Arafat also referred to Hamas as

A creature of Israel

Avner Cohen

Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel’s creation

Moving on...

You seem hyper-focussed on race.

You were the one to raise race - your definition of genocide is hyper-focused on it. I was demonstrating how stupid or dishonest you are.

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.

Go re-read your dumb definition of genocide, then pick up a dictionary or the UN definition - I'm sure even you can figure out why this is a dumb thing for you to say.

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

They're trying to exterminate all Palestinians and making meaningful headway within the constraints of maintaining US support. Your defence isn't remotely plausible given what I've presented.

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

It's you and Israel fronting that position, but as bad as your racism is, it pales in comparison to you working this hard to defend a genocide, and painting the actions of the victims of that genocide as a genocide itself.

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

Making transparently dumb, dishonest claims you can't back? How refreshing.

I'm not sure if it'd be worse that you belive any of this, you're lying because you want the genocide, or if you're on the payroll, but if it's the latter, they're not getting their money's worth. Of course, denying an obvious genocide can't be easy - maybe just don't.
