Wait let me check the definition of genocide real quick
Ok, let me see
Yep, definitely a genocide, mhm
And since wasn't actually investigated no one even knows how many were killed by hamas vs idfs apache gunships
Hamas' genocide is only limited by their capability, not by their intent.
Do you honestly think they were keeping count on that day and were like "whoah, we're over 1000 we better stop!" Or do you think if they were capable of killing 1000 more people they would have? If they were capable of killing a million Jews, do you think they would?
Let's not be naive, Hamas would kill every Jew if they could. The only reason they don't is because they are opposed. If you support Hamas, you don't think they should be opposed in their goals. Which means you want genocide. Hamas supporters are genocide supporters.
Yeah genocide is not about the actual harm you do in the real world, it's about the harm you would have wanted to do if you could. According to this commenter's speculation of how much you would have wanted it.
What a great definition. Are you fucking stoned or something?
