Gaza was a “Two State” solution. HAMAS just used it as a platform to attack Israel. The two state solution failed.
Paging MTG!
“”I have no idea how it is that new rules seem to have emerged, applicable only to Israel (or maybe to only Israel and the United States) whereby any civilian casualties in war are now deemed “genocide.” The use of the term seems to be directed at appealing to soft-minded and historically ignorant students and academics in Western countries. But endless repetition of an inapplicable term cannot change a classic war into something else.””
Reasonable people .... ie not those that are anti-semite, Jew-haters, leftists and anti-American, anti-Israel propagandists... know that it’s not genocide. What you, Francis Menton, are alluding to has been pushed by the radical left for decades and yes, it applies ‘only’ to America and to Israel. No victory of any kind is allowed to those two nations by the globalist left.
I say reasonable people, because only sane, reasonable people realize that it (the accusations of genocide by Israel) is all a bunch of BS and lies pushed by those that hate Israel and choose the world view against ‘da Jews’. If the Jew-haters have their way, America will turn against Israel as will the rest of the world... just as it is written in the end days. They are going against God as they fulfill biblical prophecy. Which is the main reason why I detest their stance and their propaganda.
“No There Is Not A “Genocide” In Gaza”
Oh, but there is. What else would you call Oct 7?
Tell MTG that.
Terrorists and terrorist sympathizers are getting what they deserve. That is called justice.
It is touching how in this age, when all norms have been destroyed by the left, a rational person still has faith that flawless logic will carry weight with people who base their reality on emotion and ideology without any input from rationality.
Great article but it will not sway even one of the “Free Palestine” cabal or their useful idiots. The battle Trump is waging for America is against the army of chaos for whom rationality and reality is not even an option. He is reestablishing a rational pragmatic basis for American government’s actions.
Even more importantly is the war against those people pulling the strings of the cabal. Those people are coldly rational, ruthlessly working to accomplish domination & subjugation on a grand scale. Their means of wielding power must be eliminated.
No There Is Not A “Genocide” In Gaza
Yes, there is. It is Muslims against Jews. What do you think the Jihad is for?
“No There Is Not A “Genocide” In Gaza”
If there ever is, it will probably be sponsored by Hamas.
It’s clearly ethnic cleansing, and by broader definitions of genocide, now seemingly universally used, that is genocide. (I’d rather just leave it more precisely as ethnic cleansing.)
The author’s point is well made, however he didn’t point out, unless I missed it, that many of the Gazan civilian casualties are due to the Hamas military using their civilians as human shields.
And a number of them around here as well. There is a "woke Right" rising which is becoming less and less distinguishable from the Left as time goes on.

There’s something about Israel that makes people uncomfortable, and it’s not what they say it is.
They’ll point to politics, settlements, borders, and wars. But scratch beneath the outrage, and you’ll find something deeper. A discomfort not with what Israel does, but with what Israel is.
A nation this small should not be this strong. Period.
Israel has no oil. No special natural resources. A population barely the size of a mid-sized American city. They are surrounded by enemies. Hated in the United Nations. Targeted by terror. Condemned by celebrities. Boycotted, slandered, and attacked.
And still, they thrive like there’s no tomorrow.
In military. In medicine. In security. In technology. In agriculture. In intelligence. In morality. In sheer, unbreakable will.
They turn desert into farmland.
They make water from air.
They intercept rockets in mid-air.
They rescue hostages under the nose of the world’s worst regimes.
They survive wars that were supposed to wipe them out, and win.
The world watches this and can’t make sense of it.
So they do what people do when they witness strength they can’t understand.
They assume it must be cheating.
It must be American aid.
It must be foreign lobbying.
It must be oppression.
It must be theft.
It must be some dark trick that gave the Jews this kind of power.
It must be blackmail.
Because heaven forbid it’s something else.
Heaven forbid it’s real.
Heaven forbid it’s earned.
Or worse, destined.
The Jewish people were supposed to disappear a long, long time ago. That’s how the story of exiled, enslaved, hated minorities is supposed to end. But the Jews didn’t disappear. They actually came home, rebuilt their land, revived their language, and brought their dead back to life — in memory, in identity, and in strength.
That’s not normal.
It’s not political.
It’s biblical.
There’s no cheat code that explains how a group of people return to their homeland after 2,000 years.
There is no rational path from gas chambers to global influence.
And there is no historical precedent for surviving the Babylonians, the Romans, the Crusaders, the Inquisition, the pogroms, and the Holocaust, and still showing up to work on Monday in Tel Aviv.
Israel doesn’t make sense.
Unless you believe in something beyond the math.
This is what drives the world crazy. Because if Israel is real, if this improbable, ancient, hated nation is somehow still chosen, protected, and thriving, then maybe God isn’t a myth after all.
Maybe He’s still in the story.
Maybe history isn’t random.
Maybe evil doesn’t get the last word.
Maybe the Jews are not just a people… but a testimony.
That’s what they can’t stand.
Because once you admit that Israel’s survival isn’t just impressive, but divine, everything changes. Your moral compass has to reset. Your assumptions about history, power, and justice collapse. You realize you’re not watching the end of an empire. You’re witnessing the beginning of something eternal.
So they deny it.
They smear it.
And rage against it.
Because it’s easier to call a miracle “cheating” than to face the possibility that God keeps His promises.
And He’s keeping them still.

Israel can win the war on the battlefield.
But, what remains to be seen is whether they can win the war politically.
Because evil is not an entity with whom you can make peace.
Plus name another country that feeds its enemies.
.
As I’ve long said, even if it were “genocide” (which it clearly is not), it’s being screeched by the side that eagerly and, often, happily self-genicides by killing its own preborn offspring.
Let God sort them out.
