Gaza is a 'textbook genocide'.

[Big Blue Marble]

8. If you are following the conversation in Israel, many have express

what can only be genocidal intent. These are ministers of the cabinet and Knesset.

Omar Bartov, a professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Brown University,
an Israeli,.has written an OP in the NYT:

"What I Believe as a Historian of Genocide

My greatest concern watching the Israel-Gaza war unfold is that there is genocidal intent, which can easily tip into genocidal action. On Oct. 7, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Gazans would pay a “huge price” for the actions of Hamas and that the Israel Defense Forces, or I.D.F., would turn parts of Gaza’s densely populated urban centers “into rubble.” On Oct. 28, he added, citing Deuteronomy, “You must remember what Amalek did to you.” As many Israelis know, in revenge for the attack by Amalek, the Bible calls to “kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings.”

This is the most disturbing statement, not from a right-winger, but from an retired general who is
advising the Government and the IDF.

Let’s Not be Intimidated by the World
Giora Eiland, Yedioth Ahronoth, November 19, 2023

"The way to win the war faster and at a lower cost for us requires a system collapse on the other side and not the mere killing of more Hamas fighters. The international community warns us of a humanitarian disaster in Gaza and of severe epidemics. We must not shy away from this, as difficult as that may be. After all, severe epidemics in the south of the Gaza Strip will bring victory closer and reduce casualties among IDF soldiers. And no, this is not about cruelty for cruelty’s sake since we don’t support the suffering of the other side as an end but as a means."
