The "G" word – genocide – can be used carelessly, insensitively, as a shutting of the gates, rather than opening a conversation, says @mehdirhasan. But it’s a conversation we need to have, given rhetoric from Hamas & Israeli officials: youtube.com/6u6-BymtuZI

ceasefire with who? "Al-Aqsa Flood (name of Hamas's operation) is just the first time and there will be a second, third and fourth because we have the determination, the resolve and capabilities to fight," - Hamas spokesman

Engaging in racist rhetoric that fuels needless violence is detrimental. It is unacceptable to label individuals based on their geographic location and imply that it warrants their guilt or even capital punishment. This applies equally to both sides of the green line. Furthermore, statements from Israel's ministers, parliamentarians, generals, president, and prime minister have raised concerns among numerous genocide experts, as the rhetoric often appears to lean towards a genocidal tone.

Okay, let's not use genocide. How about war crimes?
🚑❌At precisely 16:30, Israeli occupying forces launched an airstrike on Rashid Street in the western part of #Gaza, their target was a group of ambulance vehicles returning from a mission to transport injured individuals to the Rafah border, which included an ambulance affiliated with the #PRCS. Our colleagues were saved by miracle 🙏🙏

A former Senior Governor of 20 major NHS Hospitals in London (our chairman) and his friends (who are current hospital governors across Britain) wept for hours as they heard the news about 500 humans beings died and thousands were injured when a hospital in Gaza was bombed by the Government of Israel backed by UK and US Governments. Among the 500 humans died and thousands injured were: - Children - Women - Elderly - Disabled people - Doctors - Nurses - Hospital Medical Staff - Hospital Admin Staff - UN Aid Workers - Volunteers All of us at Healed by Compassion international health support network in 195 countries around the world (founded near Britain’s Stonehenge in 3,000 BC but the current form was established in 2010) stand firm with 8 billion fellow humans in 195 countries against all the genocides, massacres and military killings.
This you, mate?

Palestinian population since 1948 has increased by millions
1. Hamas’ policy is explicitly to murder all of the Israeli Jews. They mean it. 2. Israel’s policy is to resist that genocide. It wants peace with the Arabs of Palestine, not their deaths. That’s the whole discussion, Medhi. All the rest is just projection and gaslighting.

Replying to @MehdiHasanShow
@mehdirhasan, thanks for always telling it like it is. @MSNBC is lucky to have a journalist like you who isn't afraid to tell the truth. 👍
