    >> … Gaza ceasefire negotiations have kept falling ...[bc Israel] keeps insisting on the right to resume its genocidal slaughter after a temporary intermission.

    >> ... this is a genocide, not a war, but all the framing is around negotiating a “ceasefire” to end the “war”...

    >> But it’s not a war, it’s a genocide. You can negotiate an end to a war, but you can’t negotiate an end to a genocide. Israel has openly declared that the killing will continue until there are no more Palestinians left in Gaza ... Israel wants to eliminate all Palestinians from Gaza more than it wants the remaining hostages... Hamas has nothing to offer Israel that it wants more than it wants to purge Palestinians from a Palestinian territory.

    >> If this were being treated as a genocide, all law-abiding states would interfere to force Israel to stop. But because it’s being falsely treated as a “war” they just stand passively by ...

  2. A German leftist MP called out during chancellor’s speech “it’s a genocide”.

    #Germany's new chancellor Friedrich Merz gave his first government statement on 14 May. As he referred to “the war in Gaza”, there was an interrupting call from among the Left Party faction: “It’s not a war, it’s a genocide (Es gibt keinen Krieg, es gibt einen Genozid)”.

    Soon after the speech was finished the president of the Bundestag Julia Klöckner rushed to reprove it as “a relativization of Holocaust” and not to be allowed, without identifying the caller.

    >> Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez declared in parliament that Spain will not resume trade with Israel, labeling it as a 'genocidal state' due to its ongoing actions in Gaza…

    >> In reaction to Sánchez's remarks, Israel has summoned Spain's ambassador, Ana María Salomón Pérez, for a formal reprimand at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem the following day. This diplomatic move comes after #Spain canceled a contract for 15 million bullets worth 6.6 million euros with the Israeli company IMI Systems intended for the Guardia Civil…

  6. Quaker group pulls NYT ad over paper’s refusal to let it call Israel’s Gaza bombing ‘genocide’ (Guardian, 2025-01-08)

    theguardian.com/media/2025/jan
    ———

    “The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), a #Quaker organization that advocates for peace, said on Monday the group cancelled a planned advertisement in the New York Times in response to the paper refusing to allow it to refer to Israel’s actions in Gaza as a genocide.”

    “According to the #AFSC press release, when the group refused [to use ‘war’ instead of ‘genocide’], the New York Times responded with an email that read, in part: ‘Various international bodies, human rights organizations, and governments have differing views on the situation. In line with our commitment to factual accuracy and adherence to legal standards, we must ensure that all advertising content complies with these widely applied definitions.’”

  7. Opinion | A consensus is emerging: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Where is the action? | Nesrine Malik (Guardian, 2024-12-23)

    theguardian.com/commentisfree/
    ———

    “Despite the overwhelming evidence we see before us, still nothing changes. The war continues…”

    “But the failure is not in the descriptions of what is happening in Gaza. The failure, as Lina Mounzer wrote, is ‘of the rotten substructure of the world within which this language is meant to function’. … Israel’s allies force an adaptation on to the world after which it simply becomes accepted that rights are not bestowed by humanity, but by the parties who decide who is human.”

    “As the murder continues, what stops it from being a perfect crime is that people remain on the scene, loudly call it murder, point to the culprit, say the names of the dead, mourn them, hold vigils, and fiercely protect their rights for restitution.”

  9. Gaza and the matter of genocide (ECCHR = European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights, 2024-12-10)

    ecchr.eu/en/press-release/gaza
    ------

    "In recent months, ECCHR has been conducting independent research and analysis on the topic of genocide, and analyzing this against the available information and evidence relating to Israel’s actions in Gaza. This process has led us to the conclusion that there is a legally sound argument that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza..."

    Even in Germany many jurists and human rights experts come to the same conclusion as Amnesty International (#ECCHR is a Registered Association based in Berlin). T^T

    “With tension mounting surrounding her solo show at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie, Nan Goldin delivered an impassioned speech at the exhibition’s opening in which she called on Germany to take seriously those who are seeking a ceasefire in Israel’s war in Gaza.”

    “She went on to note a concurrent rise in Islamophobia that she said was being ‘ignored’ by the German state. ‘The weaponization of antisemitism is being aimed at the Palestinian community in this country and those who speak in support for them,’ she added. ‘The #ICC is talking about genocide. The #UN is talking about genocide. Even the #Pope is talking about genocide. Yet we’re not supposed to talk about this as genocide. Are you afraid to hear this, #Germany ?’”
