This is part why we say that soldiers who destroy civilian buildings are not just guilty of war crimes but also of genocide These demolitions don’t just inflict conditions of life calculated to bring about Palestinians’ physical destruction in the present, but in perpetuity

Every journalist and account in Gaza that can still post is saying the same thing tonight. I can’t believe the world is letting the genocidal regime carry out its declared intention to starve, massacre and expel an entire population while it watches.
