Yes. And that some people seem more concerned with relatively minor inconveniences, interruptions and hurt feelings caused by demonstrations at educational institutions than they are with genocide. Mind boggling. I think the students believe they had to ratchet up their activities, e.g., with encampments, because our politicians have all but ignored other acts of protest.

In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:
Killing members of the group;
Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction *in whole or in part*;
Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
Section 1091 of Title 18, United States Code, prohibits genocide whether committed in time of peace or time of war. Genocide is defined in ┬з 1091 and includes violent attacks with the specific intent to destroy, *in whole or in part*, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
Spot on, Nancy. It's hard to believe that people are even questioning that it's a genocide. There is more to this slaughter of innocents than many people know. There is also Netanyahu's agenda, which is to keep the war going. Once he's out of office, there are three criminal trials awaiting him.

Genocide means the targeted killing of an ethnic group, because they belong to that ethnic group.
1. Hamas is not an ethnic group.
2. Israel's war with Gaza is because of Oct 7th and what Hamas did, NOT because they are Arab Muslims.
It's obviously not a genocide, unless ALL wars are genocides.
