The [some] Palestinians have to stop killing and being evil..! This evil is too persistent, and merciless. It's way, way too much.

You can only get attacked so many times before *consequences*. If you attack me 1500 times in 50 years, I'm gonna do something to you.

Maybe I'll even confiscate your land! Maybe that won't stop you from attacking me, in which case I have to do something else. You see how this works.
Okie doke, boss, but you're making my case for me about who's being the Nazis here.

Or perhaps you don't.

Genocide is the intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group in whole or in part, as defined by the 1948 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. It involves acts such as killing members of the group, causing serious harm, inflicting conditions calculated to cause destruction, preventing births, or forcibly transferring children. The term was coined by Raphael Lemkin, derived from the Greek "genos" (race) and Latin "cide" (killing), and it is a crime under international law.

Key Aspects of Genocide
  • Intent to Destroy: The most crucial element of genocide is the specific intent to destroy a targeted group.

    • Protected Groups: The definition applies to national, ethnic, racial, and religious groups.
    • Specific Acts: The convention lists five prohibited acts that, if committed with genocidal intent, constitute genocide:
        • Killing members of the group.
        • Causing serious bodily or mental harm.
        • Deliberately inflicting conditions of life intended to bring about physical destruction.
        • Imposing measures to prevent births within the group.
        • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
The only group Israel is trying to destroy is HAMAS. If they would surrender rhe war would end. That is NOT a genocide.

Those who commit genocide no longer want to share the earth with a particular other people. It should be clear who intends to do this in the Middle East.

Correct.

Israel is in talks to possibly resettle Palestinians from Gaza in South Sudan

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel is in discussions with South Sudan about the possibility of resettling Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to the war-torn East African country, part of a wider effort by Israel to facilitate mass emigration from the territory left in ruins by its 22-month offensive against Hamas.

That's ethnic cleansing.
