Naomi Wolf, you have become an inspiration. I especially enjoyed your dissection of the Biblical passages on God giving Israel to the Jews. Here is the Geneva Convention on genocide. I would not call what Israel has done in Gaza as genocide. But genocide lite. The real genocide has been continuing for decades, and speeded up after 1967.: Definition of genocide[edit] Article 2 of the Convention defines genocide as ...any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: (a) Killing members of the group;(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group. — Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article 2[3] Article 3 defines the crimes that can be punished under the convention: (a) Genocide;(b) Conspiracy to commit genocide;(c) Direct and public incitement to commit genocide;(d) Attempt to commit genocide;(e) Complicity in genocide. — Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article 3[3] Notice section( a) of Article 3. Complicity in genocide. The US would fit that category, I think.
