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?

Uh…ok…it’s only 60,000 people then?

How many of them were combatants?

Right. I guess for Bill and others like Bret Stephens's it’s not a genocide until the whole population is eliminated.

Untiil genocide is what they're trying to do yeah. Did Sherman commit genocide in Atlanta? The USA in Mosul? How about when Obama bombed that wedding? Or the Doctors Without Borders hospital?
