do some yoga or just try and relax friend... Genocide carries with it some very specific guidelines. I do not disagree with the term mass murder. Genocide calls for a specific destruction of:
1) the mental element, meaning the "intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such", and

2) the physical element which includes five acts described in sections a, b, c, d and e. A crime must include both elements to be called "genocide."

Although I think the Bush administration is evil and destructive, they did not intend on genocide based up national, ethnical, racial or religious groups. Their purpose is not any of the above. Their purpose is greed and power. The rest is rhetoric. Is it mass murder, yes. Is it genocide? Not like the genocides of the past... Evil yes. So you may be the one caught up in sematics or euphemisms.
