A global association of genocide scholars has adopted a resolution stating that Israel’s military actions in the Gaza Strip meet the legal definition of genocide, the group’s president confirmed on Monday.

Eighty-six percent of those who voted among the 500-member International Association of Genocide Scholars backed the resolution, which declares “Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948).”

Since its founding in 1994, the genocide scholars’ association has passed nine resolutions recognizing historic or ongoing episodes as genocides.

    So after the thousandth association or whatever saying that this obvious genocide is genocide, is anyone going to start realizing that no one cares about that? Call it however you want, no one is stopping it (or rather, stopped it, because it already happened) and there will be no consequences.

      Democracy has been dead for decades. The normie is just still in denial about it.

      The public opinion has zero impact on the policy since at least 1980s.

      They effectively deployed propaganda so there was always at least a veneer of support for their policy. One side will always pick regime narrative and LARP it in earnest.

      With the genocide it is failing… And people are finding out that theur opinion means jack shit, genocide will happen. But their opinion means nothing.

      Regime whores support the zio vermin must be voted out.

      But watch it, it won’t happen.

      AOC showed her colors too… There is no hope.

    These people are ANTI SEMETIC! It’s NOT Genocide if JEWS do it because THESE ARE JUST JEWISH TRAITS! It’s JEWISH TRADITION to STARVE CHILDREN to Death and Open Fire on People Seeking AID!
