All the Palestinians know that.

Hassan Piker knows that.

There's a lot of people on the left who apparently are confused about that or don't care, either because they're so anti-Semitic or they're so deranged by the PSYOP that's been worked on them over Gaza.

But there has been no genocide in Gaza, right?

It doesn't matter how many people were killed, it's still not a genocide as witnessed by the fact that Israel could commit genocide anytime it wants and hasn't.

No country attempting genocide sends millions of text messages and cell phone calls and drops leaflets trying to get people to evacuate buildings before they bomb them.

No country trying to commit genocide opens humanitarian corridors in the middle of its war.

No country trying to commit genocide sends its own sons and daughters at great peril to clear booby-trapped buildings rather than just obliterating them from the sky at no risk to themselves, right?

none of this makes any sense.

So the use of the word genocide is nothing short of a blood libel.

And it's intended as such by people who know what they're talking about, but it seems to be confusing 77% of Democrats.

And the New York Times is now participating in this confusion.

And

Pod Save America, one of the biggest liberal podcasts, is participating in this confusion.

It's just not, I mean, it's deeply immoral, but it's also just not functional politically.

All of this is going to come back to make whoever we put forward under these forces in 2028 unelectable if he or she has to pay lip service to this shibboleth that Israel is now a genocidal apartheid state, and we all know that the war in Gaza was totally unjust.

Okay.

So we dropped two atomic bombs on Japan to end World War II, right?

You might quibble with that.

You might think that was a war crime.
