The Lemkin Institute, whose founder drew up the original definition of genocide, on which the Convention is based, disagrees with you. As does the ICJ, which is investigating Israel after it believed a "plausible" case was made by SA that a genocide was taking place 10 months ago, before things got far worse. If you have superior qualifications to either, then please do let us know. Otherwise, we'll probably all agree to ignore your contribution on this issue.

I will suppress the urge to respond in kind to your snark . . .

When the Lemkin Institute, the ICJ, Raz Segal, Omer Bartov, Adam Jones, or any other authoritative source makes a convincing case that, with intent, Israel is acting to destroy, in whole or in part, the Palestinian people, as such, I'll sign on, my inferior qualifications nothwithstanding.
