When Palestine's native residents were herded into the open air prison (i.e. Gaza) filled with "checkpoints" and occupier control over borders, the airspace and access to the sea, it's occupied.
When starvation is used as a component of Zionist genocide, it's extermination.
When IDF machine guns a line of starving, sick and homeless men, women and children, it's extermination.
When ethical Jews (1), (2) and non Jews around the world call Israel's murderous foray around Gaza a Genocide, then Palestinians are being exterminated.
If you had ever been in and around Palestinian refugee camps, you wouldn't fall for Western MSM's pro Israel bias (3) and Hasbara propaganda so easily.
Please realize that foreign, right wing Zionist extremists more ruthless than Hamas began their systematic extermination of Palestine's native residents about 80 years ago.

EXCERPT “We, Jews Against Genocide, came to Yad Vashem, Israel’s memorial of the genocide committed against Jews, to honor the Palestinian children who are dying in a genocide committed by Jews.
We brought dolls to symbolise the children of Gaza, and tried to bring a glimpse of the horror that Gazan’s face, to Israel’s doorstep. We hope to show Israel, and the world, the absurd reality of using the memory of one genocide to justify another.” CONTINUED

EXCERPT. " But the assault on Gaza can also be understood in other terms: as a textbook case of genocide unfolding in front of our eyes. I say this as a scholar of genocide, who has spent many years writing about Israeli mass violence against Palestinians.
I have written about settler colonialism and
Jewish supremacy in Israel, the distortion of the Holocaust to boost the
Israeli arms industry, the
weaponization of antisemitism accusations to justify Israeli violence against Palestinians, and the racist regime of Israeli
apartheid. “ CONTINUED

EXCERPT “Mainstream western media outlets are, by and large, infused with a pro-Israeli ideological bias that colors nearly all mainstream Western reporting on Israel-Palestine.
Israel is assumed to be good, peaceful, and like ‘us’. The Palestinians, meanwhile, are backwards, violent, and foreign. These are the assumptions that most western news outlets start with," CONTINUED

EXCERPT " One of the worst Zionist massacres committed against Palestinians is the Deir Yasin massacre. Defenceless Palestinian civilians were tortured before being massacres and their bodies mutilated. Women and children were raped, babies were butchered and pregnant women were bayoneted." CONTINUED
