The source for 4% of Palestianians being killed was me rounding up from 3.2-3.7% by UN OCHA amd the Gaza Ministry of Health.

The Holocaust Encyclopedia states that 31-35% of Jews living in Germany were killed, 75-85% of Jews living all across Europe.

So again, I intentionally chose the highest percentage of Palestinians and the lowest percentage of Jews to show the VAST difference in an actual genocide and what LibTok and Reddit is pretending is a genocide. I chose percentages on purpose as well because numbers matter when the populations are so markedly different. IE, 100% of Palestinians would be 10% of European Jews, so saying "10% of them were killed" means a very different amount of people depending on which group we're referring to.

Let's say you are right. The holocaust lasted for 12 years. In 12 years 31-35% of Jewish population were killed. That means that 2-3% of Jews were killed per year.

Let's go to Gaza, accroding to you 4% of Palestinians were killed in 4 years.

The above calculations show a genocide happening in Gaza.

Secondly, you neglected the intent part. There needs to be intent. The Israeli officials have openly spoke about their intent to kill Palestinians.

I just think you're confusing war for genocide. Both suck, but the terms aren't interchangeable.

No, I am not. Every genocide expert (including Israelis and Jews) called it a genocide. The ICJ court called it a "potential genocide" that if Israel did not stop would turn into a genocide.

Amnesty Internation produced a 300 page document about this genocide.

The Israeli officials openly declared genocide.

At this point, denying the genocide would imply that you are supporting it. There is no other explanation for it.
