The left is better than the conservatives at weaponizing the vocabulary. Probably because conservatives are busy with their jobs.
Article II
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:
(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
“acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group”
HAMAS isn’t “a national, ethnical, racial or religious group”.
“Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group”
I regard the PPACA and state abortion coverage mandates as violating the Convention.
