How to Pretend America That You Don’t Know How to Spot Genocide

185,000 buildings in one year. That’s 506 buildings a day, according to the NYTimes from the analysis done after the first year of the war. That’s a lot of 2,000 bombs and explosives. It’s a massive number of explosives and explosive material. The production of such vast material is deliberate. Never in the history of man has some many explosives been used on a regularized daily basis to destroy so many civilian buildings without the other “enemy” side destroy any of their enemy’s buildings in return after the first day.

Let’s reflect on this for a second. Who could have supplied enough explosive material to blow up 506 buildings a day? Is this a state sponsored genocide when each day Israel destroys so many buildings per a day (and I’m not counting Lebanon or the West Bank or Iran here, just Gaza). Each day, Israel destroyed 506 buildings in Gaza, which each Hamas destroyed either none statistically, or very few overall, like .1. And it is noticed by key politicians.

“There are no words, simply no words, to describe what we saw,” she said in a statement to the United Nations. “Israel has a responsibility to do everything possible to avoid civilian casualties, even if Hamas was operating near the hospital.”
