tweet from @bassem_saad on twitter, Dec 2, 2023: with Gaza being parceled off into patches and targeted by number, we must understand that the IDF has transfomed the Strip into a giant computer grid for the extermination of the Palestinian people. this method will be an object of study for years to come quoted by Hussein A Omar @chebhocine on twitter, Dec 2, 2023: ‘This is what I have termed "industrial killing"… the mechanized, impersonal, and sustained mass destruction of human beings… administered by states, legitimized… by scientists and jurists, sanctioned and popularized by academics and intellectuals.’ (@bartov_omer ) Reply by Omer Betvoc (bartov_omer): I agree that this is what appears to be happening now--a massive operation of ethnic cleansing that is beginning to increasingly look like genocide under the guise of humanitarianism, and an implementation of IDF doctrine of removing populations and then flattening their homes ALT

Omar Bartov, Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University, who has been for a while saying “it could be genocide and there’s genocidal intent” but has been holding off on outright calling it a genocide for a while now like raz segal has. seems to be changing his mind.

I’m so done with the claim that this is “ethnic cleansing” but stops short of genocide

‘Ethnic cleansing’ bleaches the atrocities of genocide†

the fact that “genocide” was coined by a genocide survivor while “ethnic cleansing” was coined by a genocide perpetrator says it all imo
