So far, the two main responses to these ten questions fall into two categories: (1) “The West Bank is not untouched.” Critics point to incidents such as settler violence or isolated clashes. But this misses the point. The claim in the essay is not that nothing bad has happened

@Aizenberg55 I agree, but one question remains. Between March and May, almost no aid entered Gaza. GHF in the south now seems to manage distribution well, but the overall volume of aid remains far from sufficient. What about the risk of a future famine? I'm aware of the interceptions.

@magnus_scott 5 months of food was delivered to Gaza prior to that, the pesky detail that is always left out. 5 months is greater than 2 months. Much of this was stolen & hoarded by Hamas. If one delivers 5 months of food then stops for only 2 months, it's not a policy of starvation.

@Aizenberg55 Let me add 5 more: 11. Why does Israel maintain electricity, water, and fuel supply lines into Gaza? Throughout the war, Israel has facilitated electricity transfers, fuel shipments, and water supply into Gaza, even while Hamas has diverted many of these resources for its own

@Aizenberg55 Videos by Gazans showing the masses being full-faced and no mass emaciation disproves the famine lie. See? No need for 10 questions. Make this point in 2-3 lines and post videos. Good day.

@Aizenberg55 The real issue is that the ones protesting the “Genocide” will never read this nor do they care for the truth.

@Aizenberg55 Great article! 👏👏

@Aizenberg55 The charge of “gEnOciDe!!” against Israel serves at least three purposes. Moment 504 https://youtu.be/6KO_0Gg0bi0

@Aizenberg55 In regard to #4 above -- the court found that Genocide requires “specific intent” (dolus specialis) to destroy, in whole or in part, a protected group as such ... and because such intent is so difficult to prove, the Court accepts that it may instead be inferred from a pattern of

@Aizenberg55 Well thought-out and well-presented article. Thorough but understandable by any thinking person. Questions are so much more effective than lectures. Followed.

@Aizenberg55 You forgot the question of why is Egypt not opening its border with Gaza to allow their Muslims/Arab brothers and sisters in to the empty lands of Sinai or why is the world not pressuring Egypt to do so if there is a genocide?

@Aizenberg55 this is great but the bottom line proof of no famine is the fact that Hamas hates Israel, there are about a million cell phones in Gaza, if the goal was mass starvation, WHERE ARE THE PHOTOS? Why are the only photos of people with other ailments?

@Aizenberg55 Tell me what you blame the Jews.. https://x.com/destinationXIX/s...

@Aizenberg55 As pointed out by @GAZAWOOD1 I think: Why is there so much staged footage created to flood Western media if there could easily be a lot of genuine videos and pictures if a genocide was really happening?

@Aizenberg55 People who *really* believe that a vastly more powerful neighbor wants to wipe them out, don't launch a vicious inhuman attack on them.

@Aizenberg55 Note how there are no comments from the pro-palis here. Not even one.

@Aizenberg55 Brilliantly put, well done. This should be translated to every language and referenced by everyone who defends Israel against this blood libel

@Aizenberg55 11. (possibly the strongest argument) Why does Hamas systematically use Palestinian human shields? The purpose of a human shield is to deter attacks because the other side wants the shield to survive. If Israel had genocidal intent wouldn't it want the shield to die?

@Aizenberg55 Thank you for creating this easy to understand overview. What I have found, unfortunately, is that even when presented with these facts and more, those indoctrinated into the Hamas/IRGC mindset don’t care to use logic when evaluating a war. Worse, as I point out that their

@Aizenberg55 That is the stupidest thing I’ve read to excuse brutal genocide. Is this from the Legitimation Cell? https://www.972mag.com/israel-...

@Aizenberg55 Thank you ! Only very misinformed people or voluntarily nefarious manipulative people use the word genocide to qualify the actions of Israel - it is a well known strategy of antisemites - very disappointing from some #SamiShah #KylieMooreGilbert delusional

@Aizenberg55 Fantastic piece. It is hard to imagine how seemingly easy it has been to radicalize so many with false narratives. Logic rules the day.

@Aizenberg55 Good article. But expect the usual answers to be “I can’t read all this! Free Palestine!” So the answer remains that Hamas must be defeated and eradicated ASAP, to save lives.

@Aizenberg55 Most of the people crying, "it's genocide" are too emotional to be reasoned with. No amount of logic or proof will have any effect on what they believe.

@Aizenberg55 John Oliver really needs to look at this. He buys all their shit.

@Aizenberg55 Good post hopefully it will be shared over and over -constant repetition will maybe get some people to wake up

@Aizenberg55 Somebody please tag Hamas' mouthpiece at The @washingtonpost , Shadi Hamid.

@Aizenberg55 These are easy (thread): 1) Zionism aims to "encourage" Palestinians to leave by making life increasingly difficult for them. Zionists understand that genocide is better avoided if possible, but as seen in Gaza, it can be used if people refuse to leave. +

@Aizenberg55 These people don’t know what genocide looks like. That’s why they aren’t saying anything about the far worse Sudan situation which is real genocide. Those people don’t get sympathy because white people aren’t involved in the conflict

@Aizenberg55 The great shame of Israel is that the Muslims are trying to wipe it out in a complete Genocide and Israel isn't responding in kind.

@Aizenberg55 So we should discount all of the statements by respected Jewish scholars who describe the situation in Gaza and the West Bank as Holocaust. As called for by Netanyahu and every member of his cabinet.

@Aizenberg55 That accusation started decades ago… just like the obsession with Israel
