Regarding the current bandwagon of support from our own press, leaders, misinformed public and certain celebrities in the United States for the ongoing genocide in Palestine: Weve all heard the common spin, its self defense and we have to DESTROY Hamas (end of communique). On the other hand we see in the Israeli press and from the blogs of their own leaders that many Israelis including upper management are publicly clamoring for ethnic cleansing/genocide and annexation of Gaza even with calls from a woman Israeli leader to kill all the mothers of the little snakes. We have blaring evidence of the intent of genocide, The bombings of civilians in their apartment buildings, schools, hospitals, shelters, and the precise and deliberate targeting of their infrastructure and medicine storage show the pudding that needs no proof. It just IS GENOCIDE. SO all of these people who are proselytizing for Israel are in essence defending genocide. And especially when they spread misinformation (i.e. self defense BS) intended to mislead the public on the ongoing genocide—ALL can be taken to task under the Treaties of Genocide Convention of 1948. Read on... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide_Convention 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]
