Calling this genocide is like crying wolf, it merely provides cover for actual genocides by diluting the term until it's meaningless. Israel could certainly suffer fewer casualties if they were to fire bomb or nuke Gaza, but they won't because they're not fucking genocidal.
It IS a Genocide.
People who study genocides call it a genocide. Please stop being retarded.
Yeah and some scientists deny that climate change is a thing, that doesn't mean all points of view are equally valid. What you are pretending is a mainstream point of view is actually quite contentious:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_genocide_accusation#Discourse
Overwhelmingly scientists agree climate change is a thing. Overwhelmingly genocide experts agree the Israel-Palestine conflict is a genocide.
I am begging you to stop being retarded.
Your claim: "Overwhelmingly genocide experts agree the Israel-Palestine conflict is a genocide."
Your Evidence: A quote by one historian. Not even a link, mind you, a screenshot. It was from the same source I provided, so if it was a normal link that same article would show other experts who disagree with him below his quote.
Do I need to explain to you why you are being intellectually dishonest here?
Here's yet another source that shows there isn't a consensus among experts:

A screenshot to the wikipedia article you linked me. You did read it, didn't you? You didn't just link something and hoped to god it supported your claim, did you? Boy howdy that'd be embarrassing.
Uh oh, a second person who agrees it's genocidal.
Also, your link is over a month old. Let's find something more up to date.

Oops, looks like the South African government agrees too.
Two whole people! Wow I guess that means that the entirety of experts must be <4. Also, that second person says they are "moving towards a 'genocidal campaign.'" Not that they have committed one.
And South Africa, too! lol. I bet you can find some Muslim states who agree as well.
I'm done here, you're clearly not willing to discuss this in good faith.
Holy shit you are so dumb. I think you need to go get an education somewhere out of dipshit land. I bet you’d enjoy being an IDF soldier gunning down babies to be called a hero.
