    It’s literally the definition of the phrase.

    Ethnically cleansing an area, is ensuring an ethnicity is removed, or cleansed from the area.

    I’m sorry you disagree with the dictionary, reality must be really difficult to deal with. But we have to deal with the reality we’re presented with, and not the reality we would like

    I did not agree with you on either of those statements.

    You haven’t brought it up, but I might as well head off the next issue, it is a genocide:

    It is agreed that it is a genocide

        They were bolded because i was using the same rhetorical device the other commenter was using right back at them, telling your speaking partner that they agreed to something they haven’t agreed to

          I dunno, I went back and read through the comments again to see if I had misinterpreted it and it really just seems like you two are splitting hairs.

        I can only use the definitions in the dictionary, in the Wikipedia, and the UN. I’m not going to go with your off-the-cuff rejection of the dictionary.
