MODERATORS
And yet, they still did agree that Israel was plausibly committing genocide.
I did, in fact, explain my criterion, and it is true regardless which country does it, and it is why I say with confidence it's why Israel is committing genocide. You just glossed over it, because it didn't fit with your narrative.
If a government deals with a population it feels is problematic by cutting off food, medicine, and potable water to that population, that government is in the process of committing genocide.
Good job devaluing the meaning of the word anti-semitic in your rush to defend genocide.
EDIT: I sincerely hope you never try to eat grass due to starvation because a government is blocking all attempts to give you food. I hope this even though you are actively defending the government doing the starving right now.
When the ICJ makes their ruling and hits Israel with the war crimes they have done but fully expel all genocide claims, are you going to accept their findings?
Are you capable of reading?
I will say it a third time for those so caught up in their own jurisdiction of genocide that they no longer have reading comprehension.
Any country that deals with a population it considers problematic by completely restricting access to food, medicine, and potable water is a government committing genocide.
It's not a hard to understand concept. Why have you ignored this simple criterion that Israel is publicly doing three times in a row?
Stop defending genocide by hiding behind false claims, made in bad faith, of anti-semitism.
I will ask again, when the ICJ makes their decision and hits Israel for war crimes but not genocide, will you accept you were wrong?
Again. I've already answered your question.
Tell me again why claims of genocide are antisemitic when the literal court adjudicating claims of genocide have found that Israel is plausibly committing genocide?
You keep using the word plausible. Is that from a direct quote in any ICJ ruling? May you provide the quote?
I got bored: https://www.npr.org/2024/01/27/1227397107/icj-finds-genocide-case-against-israel-plausible-orders-it-to-stop-violations
That is literally the first hit from google. I know you won’t read it, but you should.
You should also really watch South Africa’s presentation: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k11/k11gf661b3
And the courts findings yourself, and get your news from a primary source: https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1u/k1uwq4cxuv
