TLDR: The determination by the International Association of Genocide Scholars — which has around 500 members worldwide, including a number of Holocaust experts — could serve to further isolate Israel in global public opinion and adds to a growing chorus of organizations that have used the term for Israel’s actions in Gaza. Israel rejects the accusation and called the resolution an “embarrassment to the legal profession.”

“Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide,” according to group’s resolution, which was supported by 86% of those who voted. The organization did not release the specifics of the voting.

Nobody cares what agenda-driven academic organizations have to say about moral issues. People can make up their own minds about what is happening. These sorts of self-aggrandizing pronouncements are patronizing and counterproductive.

Yep. How can it be a genocide when the population of Gaza has been growing crazy fast? And why isn’t Israel’s response just self defense? This seems like subjective judgments by organizations outing themselves as irrelevant.
