Israeli rightists are trying to reframe a Gaza population transfer as a 'moral act'
The idea of expelling Arabs to other countries was once linked to Meir Kahane and other far-right radicals, and thus considered anathema by most Israelis. Now, to the delight of right-wingers, the idea is gaining traction as a ‘moral' solution to the war.
"Population transfer" is a funny way of saying genocide.
Israel is really playing around with the idea of taking the mask off.
They already have; now they're in "Who do you believe, us or your lying eyes?" mode.
No, this is called ethnic cleansing. Not genocide. It is to prevent genocide.
EDIT: for those downvoting me, please do not downvote for the reasons as if I support this. I am simply pointing out on incorrect usage of the words, and their logic without supporting it.
Cool motive, still crime against humanity
It's genocide in the same way the Armenian genocide is a genocide. When you forcibly move millions of people from one place to another a lot of them die. Think trail of tears.
Outside of a UN tribunal, that's a distinction without a difference.
It’s not an incorrect usage though, so for the crime of being both wrong AND a useless pedant, you get downvoted!
