Good article, Rene. Genocide! It makes me think of Israel's ongoing destruction of Gaza and its people.
See https://www.fairobserver.com/world-news/we-can-punish-israeli-leaders-for-carrying-out-a-genocide/
On October 9, Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant declared: “We are imposing a complete siege on Gaza. No electricity, no food, no water, no fuel. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals, and we will act accordingly.” Speaking of the people trapped in the Gaza Strip, Israeli President Isaac Herzog said “it is an entire nation out there that is responsible … We will fight until we break their backbone.”
And Netanyahu himself referred to ancient Israel's destruction of the Amalekites. Never heard of them? See https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/11/benjamin-netanyahu-amalek-israel-palestine-gaza-saul-samuel-old-testament/.
So intent to destroy not just Hamas, but the Gazans as a population is clear, and we see it happening day by day.
It is the Netanyahu government that bears responsibility, not Israelis generally. Here's hoping that government will trip over its own actions and come to be replaced.
