I don't think genocide is the right word here.

quote:

Genocide: the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group.

In 2014 Israel killed more Palestinians than any year since 1967: 2,314. Much of those deaths were as a result of the conflict in Gaza. (http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/mar/27/israel-kills-more-palestinians-2014-than-any-other-year-since-1967). The total Palestinian population in Gaza and West Bank is about 4.4m, so Israel killed about 0.05% of the total Palestinian population. It's a shocking number but it's not extermination.

Genocide is the wrong word because:
1) It's simply inaccurate
2) It diminishes the power of the word compared to actual genocides like the Armenians, Rwandan, and (oh! what a coincidence!) the Holocaust.
3) It implicitly (and probably intentionally) draws a parallel between the Holocaust and the (indisputable) suffering of the Palestinians, which I don't think is an accurate one - you of course can disagree, but I don't see 6 million Palestinians or so being summarily executed, gassed, worked to death as slave labour etc in the Israeli equivalents of Auschwitz, Treblinka, etc, or even massacred in the tens of thousands by machete-wielding mobs. We all know that Israel has the military capacity to destroy much of Gaza and the West Bank, so it isn't a question of capacity.
4) It isn't necessary. Palestinians are oppressed, murdered, humiliated, dispossessed, unlawfully imprisoned, subject to collective punishment, the victim of war crimes, etc (not that they are guiltless themselves - which is why the whole situation is so hosed up). Enough terrible things are done to Palestinians by Israel and Israelis (but not all Jews, OK?), that you don't need to reach for such an extreme term.

For what it's worth, I hate the current Israeli government, Netanyahu, Naftali Bennett, rightwing settlers, etc. They make me sick and I see no to little chance of peace with such racist fucks in power. Fatah and Hamas are equally bad.

I don't think apartheid sufficiently covers the full range of activities and suffering, although it's close. That also applies to the treatment of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon.

That's something I really don't understand. Do they think they can trick an all knowing, all seeing God?

Like God will just throw up his hands on a technicality?

I guess this complicates the Free Will argument. Did God give Man enough power to... trick himself?

If God has infinite plans and everything is preordained, either this is pointless or it's forcing God's hand and ruining a plan that has existed since Creation.

Yeah, I made all those comparisons. Read about Hamas and Fatah leadership, then report back. Start here for a few examples:

This isn't some Manichean struggle. The PA/Fatah/Hamas don't have to be saints in order for Israels' actions to be wrong (and vice versa, which is what a lot of strong Zionists believe). It's all hosed.
