"Our Genocide", Btselem

Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip...

Israel's onslaught on Gaza includes mass killing, both in direct attacks and through creating catastrophic living conditions that continue to raise the massive death toll; serious bodily or mental harm to the entire population of the Strip; large-scale destruction of infrastructure; destruction of the social fabric, including educational institutions and Palestinian cultural sites; mass arrests and abuse of detainees in Israeli prisons, which have effectively become torture camps for thousands of Palestinians held without trial; mass forced displacement, including attempts at ethnic cleansing and making the latter an official war goal; and an assault on Palestinian identity through the deliberate destruction of refugee camps...

The outcome of this comprehensive assault on the Gaza Strip is severe, and at least in part, irreparable harm to more than 2 million people living in the Gaza Strip, as part of the Palestinian people....

An examination of Israel’s policy in the Gaza Strip and its horrific outcomes, together with statements by senior Israeli politicians and military commanders about the goals of the attack, leads to the unequivocal conclusion that Israel is taking coordinated, deliberate action to destroy Palestinian society in the Gaza Strip...

The Palestinian Water Authority reported that Israeli water company Mekorot reduced the already minimal amount of water allocated to various areas of the West Bank.

Genocide always occurs within a context: there are conditions that enable it, catalyzing events, and a guiding ideology.
