    Finally, it's about time , 74 years of Israel and US getting away with genocide. Don't regret the pass, just don't want to regret the future.

      Imagine if 10s of thousands of Israelis were killed in this war , it would be called a genocide in a heart beat.

        It likely would be called that.  It is unfortunate that our statements today are so filled with exaggerations and lies in order to get what we want or even to simply make a point.  Emotions over reason, always!

      gen·o·cide
      [ˈjenəˌsīd]
      noun
      the deliberate killing or severe mistreatment of a large number of people from a particular national or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group

      Can you point to instances where Israel of the US has made a concerted effort to destroy an entire nation or group?  I can think of terrorist organizations, if you want to call that "genocide" (I don't), but also think of Germany and its people, or Japan and the Japanese - neither were destroy, no effort was made to destroy them.  Not in N Korea or N. Vietnam.  Not in the revolutionary war, not in the civil war.  Not in Kuwait, not in Afghanistan. 

      I cannot think of a single war time action where either country attempted to destroy a nation or its people.  Can you?

        Every US major wars are false flag attacks. It's about stealing other natural resources like oil. Or if your not a member of western centre banking system. Or not a friend of the US, your a terrorist and no nuclear powers for you.  I Refused George Bush a war sculpture,  so if I'm not for him, so I must be with the terrorist. 

        China hasn't had a major war since 1979 and US has hated Russia for a 100 years. US has ruin 5 Muslims countries yet I would not call 6 million Muslims killed a genocide. Because there is 1.8 billion Muslins in 49 Muslins predominate countries.Yet 6 million jews killed is a never ending story in a 1000 holicaust genocide movies. What dose war solve?,  nothing because both sides is not a win/win.  Iraq most of their oil gose to China and US destruction of the North stream pipeline. didn't stop Russia selling their oil to India via way to Europe resold. US sells their oil to Europe for 4 times the price.  Dumbest international economy way of thinking and we the people are the victims. Like all wars have no heros only victims. 

        A Genocide would be like world War 2 and the greatest ever In world human history is the native Americans genocide. Who Hitler was most impressed with. Not in my lifetime I've seem horrible war crime on film as in Gaza since films from  world War 2. If Gazan are not driven into the Egypt desert or the sea. And the majority can't leave, and probably will stay and die anyway. Why not? they can't return home again. They are being forced out of their homes,  where they lived for a 1000 years. The BRICS and many of the middle eastv countries who have joined is now half of the world population, and dominant all fronts of the energy,  hey won't let it happen.  It's a loose loose now for the US and especially Israel. 
        That is genocide in my book and according to South Africa. Where Gaza  Apartheid is far worst than theirs.  Think I have beautiful balance life and a stable EIQ. We are only as strong as our weakest link, Gaza is the weakest link. It's  been my problem since Muslims refugees are now living in Canada and I build homeless shelter as homelessness is very rapid pandemic. As 6 or 7 million Gazans and Syrians are living in tents also.

          Go back and read the definition of "genocide". 

          Bombing a country is not "genocide", not without the intent to remove ALL (or very nearly all) from the inhabitants from the face of the earth.  War, particularly a defensive war, is not "genocide".  Read the definition again; not a single one of your instances included a goal of killing everyone there.

            Israel leader Netanyahu plans to kill every hamas when one hamas soldier killed equals 100 to 200 innocent citizens.killed. leaving every Gaza  citizen killed with 10, 000 hamas still alive. Equals genocide.

            At over 1.2 million deaths (1,220,580), this estimate is the highest number published so far. From the poll margin of error of +/-2.5% ORB calculated a range of 733,158 to 1,446,063 deaths.
            Iraq and Vietnam loss 5% of their population killed. If US lost per capita 5% of Americans killed like 15 to 20 million. It would be the end of the world. I don't call it genocide, Chinese provert say. The firey dragon can not defeat the snake in the grass.

            Once native Americans were 5 times the population than all of Europe. Mexico city is larger than any city in Europe.  Native American population was taken down to 2% of their population by different methods. That genocide is to its highest degree. Jewish population 96% white and world white population is declining faster than any race. It must be karma of white domination for 5 centuries. That is a beach!.

              Then blame Hamas for the death of Palestinians.  Were he not using them as human shields they would not die.

                Most intense of Israelis population surrounds Israel military bases.
                Are Israelis human shields also?

                About 95% of terrorists hostage captured are successful killing the terrorists rather than the innocent person.

                  Does the Israeli military hide in and under hospitals?

                    I don't care where ever the hamas soldiers maybe go.  It doesn't give Israel soldier any ethical or human right to kill women, child and babies within that hospital.  Israelis soldiers, leaders and many of their citizens are acting much like the nazis, that they were once a victim of.

    For some reason after reading this I hear the theme from the original Twilight Zone series be played in my mind.

      Both of us couldn't imagine what it be like in Gaza right now. It may as well be horror movie or horror Tv show in our minds.
