    In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such

    I love that you bolded for emphasis part of a paragraph you don’t understand lol.

    Fun fact, this part’s also important: national, ethnical, racial or religious group

    I bolded it for you just in case.

    Also every aspect of this is false.

    they have grown their borders by violently pushing the Palestinian people out of their homes until now there are only two small territories in which Israel has continued to illegally displace the local Palestinian people and create Israeli settlements.

    There are no settlements in Gaza, and that is not how Israel’s territory expanded.

      Are you suggesting that the Palestinian people are not a national, ethnical, racial or religious group? Or did you just bold some words you don’t understand? Also would you care to explain how I don’t understand the parts I bolded? Israel has historically conducted a campaign of violent displacement of the Palestinian people. They’ve murdered them, removed them from their homes, and placed them in ghettos that Israel exercises a great deal of economic control over leading to massive rates of poverty and low access to necessary resources. You’re supporting a state that has and is committing genocide.

      Funny how you specify that there are no settlements in Gaza. Is there maybe another Palestinian territory with Israeli settlements that you’re conveniently forgetting to mention?

      And yeah, that’s exactly how Israel’s territory expanded.

        Hamas is a political entity. Not any of the above.
