You know it's possible to both oppose genocide and vote to avoid making it multitudes worse right?
- Well, one of those is a thing you can do right now, the other is a topic you can only whine about for the next four years.
  
  I can and have done both. While I would have loved to see Nutty-Yahoo hauled into the internation courts, that would have been a much simpler task if we now didn't have to also try and deal with whatever new hell Trump digs up on any given day.
  
  Give up on the "4 years" shit. That ain't happening and you know it.
- Sacrifice your land, give up your homes and identities so I can build a casino strip where they where. Don't bother me with that crap about your needs and human rights... What happened to all that self rightious indignation over imperialist expansion and capitalist subjugation of the masses?
  
  If you read the page you linked it explicitly says:
  Cultural destruction does not suffice, nor does an intention to simply disperse a group
- Yes, because ethnic cleansing famously doesn't cause loss of life. And even if you could somehow relocate millions of Gazans safely to a country that's willing and capable to accept them (of which there are none because the Arab nations aren't as much pro-Palestine as they are anti-Israel, one of the biggest mass murders of Palestinians was committed by Jordan) forcibly relocating people for a landgrab is still a crime against humanity. Even if it's not technically "genocide." Though considering the almost guaranteed loss of cultural heritage and consciousness calling cultural genocide would not be inappropriate in the slightest.
  For fuck's sake, I'm as pro-Israel as you can get and that's not something I can defend. It's completely inhumane. It's also exactly what I expected from a Trump presidency.
  
  The reason the Arab countries are refusing refugees is because when they do it becomes a permanent displacement.
- Here they are.
