    There has been no genocide. […] About 700,000 Arabs either fled or were expelled during the 1947 civil war and 1948 independence war of Israel following the United Nations-backed decision to recognise a State of Israel.

    kind of pointless arguing with somebody reality-challenged enough that they can describe a genocide and then go “see no genocide”

    it’s pretty obvious to anybody paying attention what’s going on in gaza, you just evidently just don’t want to pay attention

    As of May 2024, only 12 of Gaza’s 36 hospitals are functional; 84% of health centers in the region have been destroyed or suffered damage. […] Israel has also destroyed numerous culturally significant buildings, including 13 libraries housing thousands of books,[37][38] all of Gaza’s 12 universities and 80% of its schools,[39][40] dozens of mosques, three churches, and two museums.[41][42][43]

    so take your pick: is israel’s bombing so wildly indiscriminate that they’re just razing 80% of gaza, or are they deliberately targeting the infrastructure people need to live in a place?
