Nope. We've had tons of cases of them moving people to "safe areas" and then bombing them.
That doesn't matter in a legal sense.
Okay my dudes. Look. Israel thinks UN court is a kangaroo court, but they're sending a crack team of lawyers. Why? PR. Because they know they'll win and then they can say "we defended our actions in court and won"
Sure, take them to court, but take them to court for things they'd actually lose.
How is telling civilians 'go here for safety' and then dropping bombs on that location not intent?
Or are you saying it's an intentional war crime just not genocide in particular?
Second part
It... uh... Does? It's a pretty strong signal of intent.
Prove it was intentional and not a misfire, a problem with civilians accessing up to date information etc etc. Gaza is very small and very densely populated. You have to prove without a shadow of a doubt intent here. It ain't gonna happen.
Again, you'd be better off taking Israel to court on war crimes you can actually prove. Ones that don't require proving this intent.
Which is why everyone knows that you can't carpet bomb it without genocidal consequences.
They've known this for decades and still they keep doing it. Your bad faith excuses for genocide are more stale than Alexander Fleming's bread.
This right here shows you didn't actually understand what I've been writing.
Nope. Saying "I don't approve of it but it's not genocide" when it's clearly genocide is denying and thereby excusing genocide, no matter how much you scowl at it.
