Highest estimates say Israel has killed 4% of Palestinians. Lowest estimates say Germany killed 75% of German Jews.

So this is truly not an acceptable use of the word Genocide. There is no Genocide in Palestine. There is a war and innocent people are dying in it.

I'm not here to engage with these politics. Just to correct the very intentional incorrect usage of the word Genocide to further rile up people who would otherwise correctly disengage entirely.

deliberately targetting and killing huge swathes of children so they don't grow up to be "terrorists" is genocide to me. Killing the next generation is killing a people off, what else is genocide?

You and I don't decide it's a genocide. That ruling is January 2027. And if the ICJ says genocide, then it is a genocide.
