"The horror unfolding in Gaza is unquestionably a genocide, and the full extent of that horror won't be truly known until it comes to an end," said one political analyst.

I can't believe they are doing a genocide after explicitly saying for months they'd do a genocide after years of doing a genocide.
We should give them another 20 billion worth of bombs.
Remember when this first started happening, we hit, what was it? 5,000? And all the apologists were going "YOU DON'T KNOW!!!"
Yeah...
I look forward to watching the Hasbara trolls try to discredit one of the world's leading STEM research journals.
- Science is Hamas
  
  The gastrointestinal tract is a Hamas tunnel.
  Peer review process? Also Hamas.
- You should always be critical of what you read.
  The Lancet is the journal that published Andrew Wakefield's fraudulent MMR paper.
  Also the journal that had one of the biggest retractions in modern history of a paper on Hydroxychloroquine.
  
  Are you unfamiliar with the process of peer review? This is science working as intended. Blame psychopaths like Wakefield for spreading dangerous lies, not the process that was used to determine they were lies in the first place.
  
  The madlad went and did it. Well played.
  
  Thank you, I was not disappointed.
How does Israel keep getting away with this?
- As with most times this question is asked, the answer is - money.
  
  Because of course it is.
Joenicide.
- Sounds like a Jonas brothers album… we’ll work shop it.
  
  How about genjoecide?
- I think they have been pushed into this corner for 75 years. So, yes, I think they were willing to risk annihilation for a chance at freedom. But, that’s just my opinion.
  
  Absolutely agree, October 7 wasn’t the start of this. I think no one could have thought that the world would back the Israelis like this in their genocide. Like, western countries always had their back and the west has done horrible things e.g. in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan & Iraq.
  Nevertheless I think it’s shocking to see that there are absolutely no red lines when it comes to Western geopolitical interests. You would think that there’d be at least some kind of basic sense of humanity, anything, but it simply doesn’t exist.
- When do you think this conflict started? Because it sure as shit wasn't October 7
