Actually, what is going on in Gaza qualifies as Genocide under the UN Definition.
www.un.org
- Killing members of the group.
- Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group.
- Deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the group's physical destruction, such as forced starvation or withholding medical care.
- Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group.
- Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
Okay, that's the UN Definition. What Israel is doing definitely meets points 1, 2, and 3. I would argue that by destroying hospitals and health care centers, they probably hit #4 as well.
