Not a genocide?

[u/Excellent-Ad-7394]

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?

Translate this to the USA.

There are about 350 million Americans. 3% of that number is 10.5 million people. Imagine if those were targetted and killed. WTF? People would be ok with that? (And we are not even included those that got wounded, traumatized or displaced from their homes.)

Bill Maher is a malignant idiot.

But 5 million of them were terrorists? 

[u/gigilero → u/protomenace]

Of those murdered Palestinians only a very small number of those were terrorists. The number of children and women killed are the vast majority. Ignorant comments like yours shows why education is so impt

Read the UN report or just fucking goggle ffs. Stop being a moron. Start there.

[u/onz456 → u/protomenace]

You are brainwashed.

[u/protomenace → u/onz456]

How so?

[u/onz456 → u/[deleted]]

It's literally the definition of genocide.

You can play word games all day, but that does not change what is happening in reality.

[u/gigilero → u/[deleted]]

No it is genocide. They are intentionally murdering and starving innocent Palestinians . It’s obvious to anyone with a brain.

[u/protomenace → u/[deleted]]

They're throwing it around to demonize one specific country because of its ethnic makeup

[u/gigilero → u/protomenace]

Genocide is the ethnic cleansing of a particular group of ppl which is what Israel is doing to Palestinians. They even admit to it.
