Killing and displacing them is genocide.They will obviously not eradicate them all,but it seems to me they want to cause as much destruction as possible to displace Palestinians and force them to move away.Anyway,semantics doesn't matter.Israel policy of bombing the shit out of Gaza is evil.
Look up the Bosnian genocide (unless you also deny that was a genocide).
Systemically bombing an area filled with civillians of an ethnic group with complete disregard for their lives and amassing 10s of thousands of casualties that way is in fact a genocide whether you are ready to admit it to yourself or not
Did the jews get destroyed completely in ww2?No.Still a genocide.A massacre of a specific ethnicity IS a genocide.At this point you are just playing with semantics so Israel doesn't look that bad.Gross.

The acts have been found to have satisfied the requirements for "guilty acts" of genocide and that "some physical perpetrators held the intent to physically destroy the protected groups of Bosnian Muslims and Croats

The word “genocide” was first coined by Polish lawyer Raphäel Lemkin in 1944 in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. It consists of the Greek prefix genos, meaning race or tribe, and the Latin suffix cide, meaning killing. Lemkin developed the term partly in response to the Nazi policies of systematic murder of Jewish people during the Holocaust, but also in response to previous instances in history of targeted actions aimed at the destruction of particular groups of people. Later on, Raphäel Lemkin led the campaign to have genocide recognised and codified as an international crime. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide_Convention Definition of genocide[edit]
Article 2 of the Convention defines genocide as
... any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such:
(a) Killing members of the group;(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
— Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article 2[7]
Article 3 defines the crimes that can be punished under the convention:

Did you completely miss the part where it says intent? Hitler was intending on killing all the Jews in the nations he had occupied, he literally diverted military funds and equipment to do so. That’s why it’s a genocide, the intent is clear.
Did the U.S genocide the Japanese when they nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki? It was the massacre of a specific ethnicity after all
"Hamas uses the Palestinians as meat shields,Israel has no choice"
Pretty sure that if Israeli citizens were used as meat shields,Israel would find a way to release them without killing off everyone.This argument is so fucking dumb and disgusting.

don’t call me dumb when I am probably the only person here who hasn’t called you a retard at least once
what you’re describing is ethnic cleansing dumbass. And yeah I 100% believe it Israel can it would ethnically cleanse the Palestinians. Genocide? There’s no proof of that

And what more intent does one need when Netanyahu has been spilling Old Testament verses about baby killing and wiping out their enemies since October lmao

It would be ethnic cleasing if they were living in Israel.They are not.They are in Gaza.A piece of land mostly occupied by PALESTINIANS.
to quote international law:
"As ethnic cleansing has not been recognized as an independent crime under international law, there is no precise definition of this concept or the exact acts to be qualified as ethnic cleansing. A United Nations Commission of Experts mandated to look into violations of international humanitarian law committed in the territory of the former Yugoslavia defined ethnic cleansing in its interim report S/25274 as "… rendering an area ethnically homogeneous by using force or intimidation to remove persons of given groups from the area." In its final report S/1994/674, the same Commission described ethnic cleansing as “… a purposeful policy designed by one ethnic or religious group to remove by violent and terror-inspiring means the civilian population of another ethnic or religious group from certain geographic areas.”
The Commission of Experts also stated that the coercive practices used to remove the civilian population can include: murder, torture, arbitrary arrest and detention, extrajudicial executions, rape and sexual assaults, severe physical injury to civilians, confinement of civilian population in ghetto areas, forcible removal, displacement and deportation of civilian population, deliberate military attacks or threats of attacks on civilians and civilian areas, use of civilians as human shields, destruction of property, robbery of personal property, attacks on hospitals, medical personnel, and locations with the Red Cross/Red Crescent emblem, among others.
The Commission of Experts added that these practices can “… constitute crimes against humanity and can be assimilated to specific war crimes. Furthermore, such acts could also fall within the meaning of the Genocide Convention.”

People that call me retards are the ones that think a man wearing a dress is a woman,that the soviet union was not communist and that the EVIL PORTUGUESE raped all of the natives in Brazil.The dumb ones think they know it all.
literally what you quoted is contradicting what you believe. Ethnic cleansing would be the removal of Palestinians from their land, regardless if Israel owns it or not.
The Commission of Experts added that these practices can “… constitute crimes against humanity and can be assimilated to specific war crimes. Furthermore, such acts could also fall within the meaning of the Genocide Convention.”
are you even reading what you posted? It says COULD, not that it is.
a punch can kill anyone, doesn’t mean we’ll charge every single assault as an attempted murder. There needs to be more factors involved such as ehem, intent.
It does matter because genocide is the intended destruction of the victim. Palestinian identity and people have only grown through out the years, and even at times there has been attempts for peace on both sides. So no, there hasn’t been a genocide for the past 80 years

The term you are bringing up doesn't even have proper definition:
"As ethnic cleansing has not been recognized as an independent crime under international law, there is no precise definition of this concept or the exact acts to be qualified as ethnic cleansing."
But genocide does:
The Commission of Experts added that these practices can “… constitute crimes against humanity and can be assimilated to specific war crimes. Furthermore, such acts could also fall within the meaning of the Genocide Convention"
Actually read what people post and don't cherry pick your quotes.

I appreciate the dialogue happening.
But is not denying their existance while bombing civilian houses, in opinion, proof of Genocide?
Civilian cannot escape while being deliberately targeted and associated at the terrorist cause, while politician claim palestine never existed and have claimed it for years.
What more shouls be done in your opinion?
