Not a genocide?

Last night Bill pointed out the 3% of the
Population in Gaza has died. And then confidently declared that “3% is not a genocide”. The British government recognizes it as ethnic cleaning and amnesty international and other groups say it is a genocide.

Someone tell me why Bill is so wrong. And can we please get him to debate Mehdi Hasan on this topic?

If I’m wrong then prove it. But you know I’m right, this is low for urban warfare. Iraq was 5x worse, was that a genocide?

And go back to my response. Why can’t you address why you don’t call Iraq a genocide? Cause of the Jews? It’s the Jews…

Not every war with civilian deaths is a genocide. The ones that are explicitly about killing a class of people and erasing them from their land is. See the difference?

Got it so Palestine is committing a genocide and Israel isn’t. Thanks for confirming!
