It’ll never not be ridiculous to me that the evidence that Israel isn’t committing genocide is…because Israel told the international community they aren’t (I WAS going to just say because Israel said they aren’t, but they HAVE said they will, just to their own public). Reporters are seriously saying ‘Israel would deny that claim of genocide’; like yeah of course they would; how many nations committing genocide would just announce to the world ‘yes we’re committing genocide’?
Yeah it’s wild. And you know, as an encyclopedia, I can see tossing it in for completeness. Then when you read the article and see “wow basically the only ones of any authority denying this are the israeli state themselves” it is still immediately obvious which is actually the truth.
