I see no evidence that the state of Israel has decided to exterminate the Palestinian people. IF Israel had, there would be far more devastation in Gaza than there currently is. As much as I hate this war and find the scale of devastation and death appalling, it's not genocide. Study Rwanda - then you'll see what genocide is. 800,000 Rwandans were killed in the genocide in 1994. It was carefully planned by the government, there was government propaganda beforehand, genocidal songs played on the radio, etc. The Israeli government has a lot to answer for morally and legally, but the charge of genocide is not it.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17626228106192215280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5448657.post-84698840529729960482009-01-14T16:14:00.000-05:002009-01-14T16:14:00.000-05:00Gee, that wazs a week ago and now there are 500 mo...Gee, that wazs a week ago and now there are 500 more dead, mostly children. Do you think that you spoke a bit too soon? Don't you think you might have gotten it wrong - yes, Rebecca, there is a genocide in Gaza!!!Tamara Al-Omhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11938287974178440480noreply@blogger.com
