    Why apologise? Genocide is comparable to genocide.

    I can only assume he has been threatened into doing so.

      Oh tell that to the annoying guy on every thread about Gaza claiming it is not a genocide because you cannot compare it to the Armenians or Rwanda and daring everyone to compare them to figure out the war in Gaza is not a genocide… Jfc

      Even the ICJ is not calling it genocide. People don’t understand the difference between war crimes and genocide.

        The ICJ is still looking into it, their preliminary vote has found the allegations to be “plausible”.

          But yet they didn’t call it that yet. So I’m replying to that poster that made it clear it was genocide without any doubts.

        The icj only decided that there is enough evidence to go forth with the case. They are not calling anything because they havent decided yet.

    If the comparison can be particularized and specific, there is no need for an apology.

      Israel ≠ Jews. What is happening in Gaza is the fault of the fascist government of Israel, not “the Jews” - that is an actual neonazi talking point.
