    stated goals of genocide against the Palestinian people

    They could do that in a weekend if they wanted to. They have the recources to do so but they haven’t. Why? Because that’s not what they want.

      Or the more obvious explanation, genocide is unpopular on the global stage. A direct campaign of terror like the nakba would get them sanctioned to hell and back, and probably invaded by major non-western powers. That doesn’t diminish their desires and measurable progress.

        Because what they’re doing right now isn’t unpopular on the global stage?

        I’m all for criticizing Israel for what they’ve done in the past and especially what’s going on now but once someone starts suggesting they’re intentionally targeting children because that’s how evil they are, then that’s where I step off the train.
