  1. According to the UN one must meet all of the conditions before Genocide by their definition become possible... The intent is the most difficult element to determine. To constitute genocide, there must be a proven intent on the part of perpetrators to physically destroy a national, ethnical, racial or religious group. Cultural destruction does not suffice, nor does an intention to simply disperse a group. It is this special intent, or dolus specialis, that makes the crime of genocide so unique. In addition, case law has associated intent with the existence of a State or organizational plan or policy, even if the definition of genocide in international law does not include that element. https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml * note that it does not include Terrorist groups as they are not protected under the conventions of war. I would say unless you have proof of intent then Genocide is off the table...

  3. With the aim of destroying that nation or group. Well, to start with, there is no nation to destroy. As for the people, if Israel wanted to destroy them they could have already killed every man, woman and child in Gaza ten times over. The casualties are actually quite low for urban warfare. When the US went into Fallujah there were four civilians killed for every 1 dead guerrilla. In Gaz it's more like one for one. That's incredibly low because Israel has been making enormous efforts to minimize civilian casualties.

  4. Autocrats in China, Russia are now making common cause with MAGA Republicans to discredit liberalism and freedom around the world. MAGA Republicans are dupes of authoritarians of many stripes in a plot to destroy democracy. Trump's MAGA CULT is now a tool to destroy the FREEDOM Republicans have long defended.

  5. From WIKI: American and New Zealand climate scientist Kevin Trenberth has published widely on climate change science and fought back against climate change misinformation for decades.[222] He describes in his memoirs his "close encounters with deniers and skeptics" [note that wiki goes along with the claim that they're mere 'deniers', and not "concerned climatologists with important opinions"] —with fellow meteorologists or climate change scientists. These included Richard Lindzen ("he is quite beguiling but is criticized as “intellectually dishonest” by his peers"; Lindzen was a professor of meteorology at MIT and has been called a contrarian in relation to climate change and other issues.[223]), Roy Spencer (who has "repeatedly made errors that always resulted in lower temperature trends than were really present"), John Christy ("his decisions on climate work and statements appear to be heavily colored by his religion"), Roger Pielke Jr, Christopher Landsea, Pat Michaels ("long associated with the Cato Institute, he changed his bombastic tune gradually over time as climate change became more evident").[222]: 95  Sherwood B. Idso is a natural scientist and is the president of the Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change, which rejects the scientific consensus on climate change. In 1982 he published his book Carbon Dioxide: Friend or Foe?, which said increases in CO2 would not warm the planet, but would fertilize crops and were "something to be encouraged and not suppressed". William M. Gray was a climate scientist (emeritus professor of atmospheric science at Colorado State University) who supported climate change denial: he agreed that global warming was taking place, but argued that humans were responsible for only a tiny portion of it and it was largely part of the Earth's natural cycle.[224][115][225] In 1998, Frederick Seitz, an American physicist and former National Academy of Sciences president, wrote the Oregon Petition, a controversial document in opposition to the Kyoto Protocol. The petition and accompanying "Research Review of Global Warming Evidence" claimed that "We are living in an increasingly lush environment of plants and animals as a result of the carbon dioxide increase. [...] This is a wonderful and unexpected gift from the Industrial Revolution".[160] In their book Merchants of Doubt, the authors write that Seitz and a group of other scientists fought the scientific evidence and spread confusion on many of the most important issues of our time, like the harmfulness of tobacco smoke, acid rains, CFCs, pesticides, and global warming.[124]: 25–29  1. Yeah I know that's probably too long of a quote without an accompanying amount of substantial commentary, but it's their own words, and I'm not going to try to paraphrase all of that accurately. 2. It's harder than you think to find opinions that go against the MSM's narratives MH. Go see for yourself. It's because Google is part of TNI, and TNI is a global disinformation network. When TNI toadies weigh in on things like BSL4 labs, laptops, etc, their "counterintuitive" narratives/apparently blatant BS eventually ends up being actual bullshit quite a bit.

  6. Want to know what the civilian casualty rate was in Aleppo? How about Grozny? Seoul? Beirut in the Lebanese civil war? How about the civilian casualties when the Canadian military fought its way through Sicily and then up through Italy? Urban war causes civilian casualties. There is no way to avoid them.

  7. Had there not been an oct 7, there would be no attacks for the last 6 months...there would still be a cease fire... Sept 11, US was attacked and they continued that conflict for more than 14 years....and killed thousands shit it wasn't even our war and Canada killed thousands...And those Afghans that risked everything for Canadians soldiers were told FU...after being told they would get a free ticket to Canada and citizenship if they helped....they are still waiting...some have already been swept up by taliban forces and executed...more were rescued by ex canadian soldiers with their own dollars...than our government... Today we have a terrorist organization voted in by palestinians who wage a terrorist war with Israel, who are more interested in killing women and children...and somehow they are what some canadians stand up for... The world has turned upside down...since when has it ever been OK to support terrorism...

  12. 1. No, the Satan dildo cake came later from a different set of cultist trash. 2. No, the "bigoted" baker rejected the pervert degenerates and lost to activist judges which left him no choice but to appeal to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is the only reason this guy is still in business. The truth is, I'm surprised you wokejobs haven't escalated the issue to violence. 3. Wrong. You take an order if you feel like it. If you don't like something about the person who's giving the order then you refuse service. This is why the baker is still in business, and why crybabies, like you, need safe spaces.

  13. The amusing irony here is that you DEMANDDDDD!!!! THat people respect their right to be gay and have a gay marriage, but are completely scornful and dismissive of the baker's right to his religious beliefs. Nobody should be forced to do work against their will.

  14. An established Palestine would be an Islamic dictatorship, would immediately load up on weapons from Iran, and then launch another Oct 7 attack on Israel, this time with a far larger, better equipped military. How many hundreds of thousands of Jews would they get to kill before Israel gave the Palestinians the martyrdom they all crave?

  15. Meh...they have garbage for arguments so they have to "troll". It would be wise to simply admit the truth of things but...that would cross the line for these empty vessels.
