    Would you prefer we call what Israel is doing ethnic cleansing instead?

      That’s probably what they would like to do in their fantasies – make Gazans gtfo from that general area – but given their inefficiency of doing it, I don’t really know what’s going on. You don’t “ethnically cleanse” a rapidly growing population of 2 million by killing a few thousand here and there.

      Their birth rate is about 24/1000, so about 50000 new children are born there every year.
