Your watered down use of the word genocide is the core of the issue.
There is no mention of the word genocide in this article for starters.
They aren’t in this list of genocides either. Only the Pontic genocide is listed where 25% of Greeks in Turkey were killed.
Do you consider the forced exodus of Jews from Arab and Muslim countries after Israel’s independence a genocide?
From the same Wikipedia article.
Ethnic cleansing has been described as part of a continuum of violence whose most extreme form is genocide. Ethnic cleansing is similar to forced deportation or population transfer. While ethnic cleansing and genocide may share the same goal and methods (e.g., forced displacement), ethnic cleansing is intended to displace a persecuted population from a given territory, while genocide is intended to destroy a group.
Your quote is just a bunch of insinuations leading questions without an answer. Pure bad faith.
He also said “Palestinians, mainly Palestinians”. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5BvgVfsHKmA
As usual with Trump, his language isn’t very precise.
During the time of his he pier, trucks were also getting in from other entrypoints. Israel even constructed and opened new ones.
The problem with aid availability was mostly related to challenges with distribution inside Gaza.
The pier had the same issue. Aid was piling up next to it, but distribution further into Gaza was slow.
All of these are tragedies of course.
Also known as “ethnic cleansing”.
Evacuation of civilians from warzones is not only legal under international humanitarian law, it’s required.
“Human shields” argument also completely unsubstantiated

hundreds of thousands of civilians have been killed
Hamas run health minister claims 62,000 dead and missing. Where are you getting these ridiculous numbers?
Gaza Strip has been completely flattened
Estimates are 59.8% of buildings in the Gaza Strip had been damaged or destroyed.
Destroyed buildings are not a genocide.
What he’s posting is literal genocidal incitement
You have completely lost the plot.
I never advocated for Palestinians to be killed.
Some Lemmy instances block lemmynsfw, so you won’t see it.
provide any real proof of this

For obvious reasons, I don’t have transcripts of secret diplomatic meetings.
saying the “red line” had not been crossed, despite Rafah having been completely destroyed
Yes, because the civilians had more time to leave because of US pressure.
would have ended the genocide
The ICJ ordered Israel to take measures that ensure there won’t be a genocide.
It’s a brutal war in in a dense urban environment against a deeply entrenched enemy hiding behind civilians.
You could have stopped Biden at any time since October 2023
How?
applying diplomatic pressure
US diplomatic pressure delayed the Rafah offensive by several weeks. And there were many other things as well.
The US built a whole temporary harbor to deliver aid to Gaza.
sending peacekeeping forces
Is Trump‘s Plan.
The American left completely splintered into subgroups that all hated each other and nobody was good enough to be an ally.
Supporting a two state solution is nowadays branded as colonialist fascism.
Not only the right became more extreme, the left has radicalized to an extreme level as well.

Trump explicitly said Palestinians would live there in his press conference.
Population transfers aren’t unheard of. In Greece/Turkey, Italians from eastern Adriatic, German from Prussia and Silesia, Pakistan/India millions of people moved.
This Holocaust comparison is completely dishonest and betrays any knowledge of how it happened. Used in this context, it’s Holocaust relativism at best and likely antisemitic.
Gaza is an open air prison!
Okay, you can leave to build a new life somewhere else.
Nooooooo, that’s genocide!
People are still betting big on Tesla’s self driving and other technological advances.
Value of a stock isn’t just the current market success, but also perceived future value.
That said, Tesla is overvalued for sure.
So you’re not following the standard definition.
