As far as I know, early Zionists spoke openly of collective punishment and ethnic cleansing but did not endorse genocide.So it's not genocide?
Gotcha
What about the genocide by Hamas against the people of Palestine? Why is it ok for them to execute them in the streets to try and maintain control over the region? Why don['t you take issue with that?
All that has changed today:
Israel’s Admission of Genocide
"Meanwhile, Israel has inflicted levels of death, destruction and deprivation that could not possibly be justified by military necessity.
"Gaza, populated for millennia, has been reduced to rubble and ash.
"Residential neighborhoods, schools, universities, libraries, hospitals, businesses, cultural and historical sites, have been obliterated.
"While no proper accounting is yet possible under siege conditions, at least 55,000 people are presumed dead—including 18,000 children—and hundreds of thousands wounded, with almost no medical care available.
"Satellite images today reveal a wasteland reminiscent of what the deputy speaker of Israel’s parliament, said was the country’s 'one common goal' after October 7, 2023: 'erasing the Gaza Strip from the face of the earth.'"
