Quintessential rogues gallery — US, Western Europe, Canada, Australia, with Arab and Muslims in tow
PORTLAND - The fact that Israel has committed genocide in the Gaza Strip is beyond a doubt.

And as for intent (critical to proving genocide) listen to and read the statements of Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog, Defense Minister Gallant and senior military leaders.

The resistance was in a state of defense and not in a state of attack throughout Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. There is a difference between one who holds a rightful position and moves within that circle, and one who practices tyranny to achieve illegitimate goals.
