    You are correct on all points.

    The numbers versus Israel’s capabilities speak for itself.

    1% of the civilian population of Gaza is dead.

    Gaza is a tiny area. Most Palestinians don’t live there. The total percentage of Palestinian people killed in this war is 0.004%.

    How is that a genocide?

    If Israel was trying to wipe out the Palestinian people, they have the capability. Are we saying they are doing an intentional genocide but it’s just the most incompetent genocide in history?
