6. It's implied

Jun 2024

The implication being that genocide can only look one way. There are genocides that have happened that look a lot different than that. Myanmar, Darfur, Syria, Kosovo, etc.

I personally don’t think what is happening in Gaza right now is genocide, but I don’t think the people who do think that are diminishing the Holocaust in anyway. It’s not OK to starve people. It’s not OK to bomb tent cities in supposed safe zones. No amount of history excuses immorality of today.

I’ll repeat this, but Netanyahu is turning the world against Israel, Western support of Israel is no longer assured in the future because far right extremists like Netanyahu are raging right now. Netanyahu is a Trump clone, complete with the corruption, he will destroy Israel if he is given free rein going forward.
