Actually, Europeans, Romans, killed Jesus, then, after becoming Christians, turned around and blamed Israel for what they had done.And that hasn't been part of Christianity. The Jews killed Jesus, according to the Bible.
(Please note, I don't think the Jews killed Jesus because I don't think Jesus ever existed. But it's still in the Bible and Vatican II trying to paper it over doesn't change that.)
DEFINITION OF GENOCIDE IN THE CONVENTION: The current definition of Genocide is set out in Article II of the Genocide Convention:
Genocide means any of the following acts committed withthe intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group, as such:
(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
What the Zionists are doing in Gaza definitely meets the first three conditions and could be arguably said to meet the fourth one.
Jesus was an historical person and there are records of his execution by the Romans, but we have only the Gospels, none of which were written by people who were his contemporaries, as to the rest of the stories that were written about Jesus.
Only an idiot or a bigot would write, "I don't believe Jesus ever existed."
Genocide means any of the following acts committed withthe intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group
Clearly, Israel has no such intent, so there is no genocide in Gaza. Are you really so stupid that you can't understand that part of the definition of genocide?
In fact, if you were able to look at the facts, it would be clear to you that the military structure Hamas has been building for 17 years, was designed to use civilian infrastructure as a shield to protect the terrorists by making it impossible to reach the terrorists in their tunnels without first destroying the civilian infrastructure they are hiding behind. A high civilian mortality rate is the last weapon the Palestinian terrorists have left in their arsenal in their war against the Jews.
As difficult as it is to watch the present war, since the Palestinians refuse to live in peace with Jews, the only alternative to destroying the terrorists and demilitarizing Gaza now is an endless stream of wars initiated by the Palestinians and paused by ceasefires for the foreseeable future.
