Genocide is about intent, mandrill. As someone who pretends to be a lawyer on this board you should try to understand the law.
Israeli leaders declared their intent and have followed through their action in three stages.
Combined with killing more journalists in Gaza than have been killed in any war previously, to try to hide the story.
Bomb and kill as many civilians as you can without losing US support.
Block as much food, water and medicine as you can.
Destroy as many hospitals, doctors and medical supplies as you can.
As HRW says:
‘Using starvation as a tool an abhorrent war crime’
As we reported earlier, a new report by Human Rights Watch (HRW) says Israel has been using starvation as a weapon of war in Gaza.
Omar Shakir, the group’s Israel and Palestine director, said there are at least five pieces of evidence that Israel is deliberately starving people in the densely populated territory.
“One is two-plus months of blocking entry of food and water. Second is the blocking of all but a trickle of humanitarian aid from entering into Gaza. This has been documented for more than two months,” he told Al Jazeera.
“Then, you add to it some of the additional evidence that we looked at. One is the apparent razing of agricultural lands, large percentages of the green agricultural lands turned into brown and desolate.
“Fourth, the report looks at the intentional destruction of objects necessary for survival – I am talking about the wheat mills, hospitals, water and sanitation facilities,” Shakir said.
“Then, you put together the last piece which is the statements of the Israeli officials spelling out in clear terms that their strategy or policy is to starve civilians as a tool of leverage to achieve political outcomes, whether it will be the release of hostages, the destruction of Hamas.”
Putting it all together, Shakir added, there is “the clear conclusion that the Israeli government is using starvation as a tool, which is an abhorrent war crime”, he said.
That's like claiming someone declaring they are a bank robber doesn't mean they are a thief.
They have no voting rights and there is chaos and violence.
Israel gave 'Israeli Arabs' the right to vote and there is no violence and chaos there.
When did you become an anti democratic fascist?

Even if your fantasy stories were true that doesn't justify the occupation, apartheid, blockade and genocide.
You know that in Canada no crime justifies a victim to kill someone, their family, destroy their homes and steal their land.
Everyone in the world knows where Gaza is now.
Congrats.
You're saying the government the aid is aimed for is hijacking it or that the starving people its aimed for are hijacking it?
How much water are they bringing in by truck? Enough for 2.3 million people?
Gaza water system ‘completely collapsed’
The lack of water or sanitation could soon become equally “dangerous” as the ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza, according to a member of Doctors without Borders, known by its French initials MSF.
“The water system isn’t working anymore – it has completely collapsed,” Ricardo Martinez, who spent four weeks in Gaza during the war, said in an interview posted on the aid group’s website.
This number doesn't included the 8-10,000 people buried in rubble and 'missing'.
Gaza death toll rises
At least 19,453 people, including 7,729 children, have been killed in Israeli attacks since the start of the war, according to new figures by the Health Ministry in Gaza.
The number of people wounded also rose to 52,286, including 8,663 children, the ministry added.
Rahim Mohamed: Terror arrest underscores threat to Canadian Jews (msn.com)
Canada’s already on-edge Jewish community suffered yet another blow over this weekend, when it was reported that an Ottawa teenager had been arrested for allegedly planning an attack targeting Jews.
The youth, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, now faces charges of facilitating terrorist activity “by communicating instructional material related to an explosive substance” and “instructing, directly or indirectly, a person to carry out a terrorist activity against Jewish persons.” His charges were read to him in an Ottawa courthouse on Saturday and he’s scheduled to make a second appearance in court on Monday morning.
The news out of Ottawa came just two days after police in Calgary arrested a 16-year-old male over an unconnected terror plot; the same day a 17-year-old Calgarian arrested earlier as part of the same investigation was placed on a terrorism peace bond and barred from LGBTQ events and synagogues.
The RCMP said Saturday that it had seen a “concerning trend” of young people being radicalized online, revealing that five youths had been arrested on terror charges over the past six months.
The arrests in Ottawa and Calgary also reflect a worrying prevalence of anti-Jewish sentiments among Generation Z. A recent surveyby Harvard University and polling company HarrisX revealed that two thirds of Americans aged 18 to 24 saw Jews as a “a class of oppressors” (a view shared by just 27 per cent of all respondents). A further six in 10 said that Hamas was “justified” in killing 1,200 Israeli civilians and kidnapping 250 more on Oct. 7.
Canadian teens and young adults, who likewise get much of their information from social media apps like TikTok , are susceptible to much of the same anti-Jewish and anti-Israel messaging.
Above all, the recent developments underscore that Canadian Jews are under threat; a fact that’s been abundantly clear since shortly after the start of the Israel-Hamas war. Even before the war started, Jews were the target of two thirds of all religiously motivated hate crimes in Canada, despite making up just one per cent of the population.
When a religious community becomes the target of widespread hatred, the responsibility falls on political leaders to do whatever they can to turn down the temperature. George W. Bush did this when he visiteda Washington, D.C. mosque just a week after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, imploring the nation not to take retribution against Muslim Americans for the actions of their co-religionists.
By contrast, Canada’s political leaders have, by and large, given the Jewish community a cold shoulder, even as hate crimes targeting Jews spike across the nation. Federal public safety minister Dominic Leblanc didn’t even include the word “antisemitism” in a tweet addressing the Ottawa terrorism bust on Saturday. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had yet to make a statement on the incident as of Sunday afternoon. (He did have time, over the weekend, to tweet his condolences on the passing of the Emir of Kuwait).
The deafening silence on the weekend’s news follows on the heels of Trudeau’s decision to instruct the Canadian delegation to vote against Israel in the UN General Assembly last week; a move that disappointed some in his own caucus, including Mount Royal MP Anthony Housefather (who is Jewish).
And it’s not just federal leaders who’ve failed Canadian Jews in their time of need. Earlier this month, Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek publicly snubbed the city’s 8,500 Jews, announcing via press release that she would not attend the annual menorah lighting at city hall due to the event’s connection to Israel. Jewish leaders had asked Gondek ahead of time to exercise discretion if she chose to skip the Hanukkah kick-off. Gondek’s menorah lighting snub came just days after the City of Moncton, N.B. announced it was cancelling its annual display of the Hanukkah symbol (a decision that was later reversed).
The actions of Trudeau, Gondek and other leaders send a clear message to the Canadian public, and young Canadians in particular. At a time when their leadership is sorely needed, our leaders have only fanned the flames of anti-Jewish hatred through their cowardice and political posturing.
“We are deeply concerned that many politicians at all levels are emboldening potential terror actors; especially young Canadians who are already being exposed to antisemitism online,” said Adam Silver, CEO of the Calgary Jewish Federation, in an interview Sunday. “Their weakness on calling out and doing something about antisemitism and anti-Zionism is allowing those with extreme ideologies to flourish.”
“Those who have chosen a pro-Hamas side have normalized open and targeted hate against Jews,” Silver added.
Interim CEO of the Jewish Federation of Ottawa Sarah Beutel said that antisemitic attitudes were increasingly prevalent among the city’s youth even before the Oct. 7 attacks. She added that, while Ottawa’s Jewish community has received strong support from some municipal leaders, including Mayor Mark Sutcliffe, the Trudeau government’s lack of action has been palpable.
“We are calling on the federal government to send a stronger message against the online radicalization of youth,” Beutel told me on Sunday. Adding that those caught engaging in such activities should face “appropriate consequences.”
Trudeau and Gondek, both parents to teenagers, should be especially aware of the example they’re setting for young people. One can only hope they’ll see the terror-related arrests of youths in their respective cities as a wakeup call.

But Israel keeps two water pipelines going. And states that it has excess capacity to monitor and facilitate aid trucks into Gaza. Doesn't sound much like "genocide" after all.
Those aid trucks just have to keep coming and Hamas has to stop stealing the food and feeding their own fat thugs while the children starve.
Hmm, should I listen to a blatant racist Islamaphobe defending genocide or MSF?
Such a tough call.
What do you feel like supporting today?
More torture? A bit of rape, killing more babies, starving pregnant women, snipers hitting old ladies, running over people with bulldozers?
Is water deprivation not even on your list?
Gaza water system ‘completely collapsed’
The lack of water or sanitation could soon become equally “dangerous” as the ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza, according to a member of Doctors without Borders, known by its French initials MSF.
“The water system isn’t working anymore – it has completely collapsed,” Ricardo Martinez, who spent four weeks in Gaza during the war, said in an interview posted on the aid group’s website.
“People are being pushed to the limit, having to fight for their survival. At most, people have one litre of water per day – that’s for drinking, washing and cooking,” added Martinez, a logistics coordinator for MSF.
In addition to the lack of water, he said some places in Gaza were without any fuel or electricity, further compounding the challenges faced by residents.
“Without fuel, the grinding mills are not working, so nobody has wheat – no wheat, no food. Trucks coming from Egypt are offloading aid to trucks in Gaza, but without fuel, these trucks are unable to move and distribute the aid,” he noted.
There is less than 1/10th of what is needed getting through.
That's on Israel, not Hamas.
As HRW noted, its all part of a direct and multifaceted campaign to starve the people of Gaza.
Israel has also destroyed all the universities in Gaza.
Did you know Gaza has a higher literacy rate than Israel?
Just as they wipe out entire bloodlines.

Sure it can, darts.
I see elsewhere there is a thread attacking minorities started by a Sikh member of the board.
And here we have a thread about racism at universities backed by people who are supporting the destruction of all schools and universities in Gaza, along with the assassination of teachers and profs.
If Hamas didn't hide in or under these places, they'd still be standing.
So that was a long way of saying that the UN security council did not rule against Israel which confirms my statement that:
Israel is winning on the battlefield, in the courts and in the halls of power.
