Thread Name: BS: Israel Moves in.
Subject: RE: BS: Israel Moves in.
People who are unable to understand a hypothetical probably shouldn't be posting here. Try to understand the difference between these two statements...

"But I don't think anyone would say that Hitler had committed genocide had he only succeeded in killing a few thousand Jews before being stopped."

"But I don't think anyone would say that Hitler had committed genocide because he had only succeeded in killing a few thousand Jews before being stopped."

The first is what I actually said. The second is what a very desperate person is pretending I said.

We don't know how many Gazan's Israel has killed today. There's no way for us to know at this time how many people died today because of Israel's blockade of Gaza, which, by the way, is not in any way defensive in nature. Allowing food and other essentials to enter Gaza does not protect Israelis from anything. It is offensive in nature and is designed to eliminate a civilian population. Which is genocide.
