I'm just differentiating between facts and accusations.

The status quo is that there are states accusing Israel of comitting a genocide.

What's interesting: I think, I have a somehow similar opinion about the brutality happening in Gaza and that there must be a plan to end this as soon as possible. But just because I don't use an emotion driven buzz word, people tell me to fuck off or shut up.....

Originally, I did not want to write this, but..... What's somehow ironic: I'm probably talking to people here whose own current and future government (does not matter whether Biden, Trump or Harris) states clearly that it's NOT a genocide. So, my "let's wait for the experts to classify it" view is not even as crazy as to the one of their government. But yeah... I don't know where you are from... So, this is an accusation, too.

But whatever... I'll keep describing what's happening in Gaza without using that word, as long a it's only a Genocide accusation.
