IDF doesn't have intent to destroy palestinian group, they have intent to destroy Hamas, so probably you only can call it genocide against Hamas. Genocide was in Ukraine for example, when Russia targeted powerplants during winter, which didn't have any military value.

Israel deliberately cut off power, water, and all crossings into Gaza for delivering food and aid. Even worse than what Russia did to the power plants. Literal collective punishment, another war crime to add to their list.

Even the Pope called them terrorists. They were literally funded by two terrorists organizations (Irgun and Lehi). And over the past 70 years their main occupation has been the terrorizing of the few remaining Palestinians. How more plainly terroristic do you have to be? And now they are here on HN funding posts like yours trying to justify the mass murder of children and women as a form of collective punishment. May…

Just as there was no clear evidence that Shireen Abu Akleh was killed by israeli snipers before they admitted it many months down the line? There are countless videos and accounts of unarmed old men and young boys being sniped by them.

The target is Hamas. Some innocents are dying, but the intent isn’t to deliberately kill them. And there is no evidence any of those other criteria are even happening.

The Israelis admitted that they are fighting "human animals" (remember who else used dehumanization tactics in WWII?), and that their goal was "damage, not accuracy".

> So the mother should just shut up and accept that her children are not to be spoken about? for sake of mutual peace and future every human should think hard before talking on sensitive topics. But humans can't, so we butcher each other instead for thousands of years.

You are seriously demanding of a mother who lost her children to shut up? Would you demand the same of an israeli Mother?

I said "think hard", not "shut up", then she may realize that Hamas role in death of her kids is significant, and she is a puppet for Hamas propaganda. The same is relevant to you btw.

Israel cut power and water they provided before to the territory which attacked them. Sounds like many countries did such thing in the past.

"Tens of thousands of innocent civilians and children are being massacred, it's unconscionable!" "Yes yes etc but do you condemn hamas" Literally the meme

Hamas initiated escalation, uses civilians as live shield and totally guilty in civilians deaths.
