I used to like The Economist, but this is Nazis propaganda right on their page.

Israel, by contrast, does not meet the test of genocide. There is little evidence that Israel, like Hamas, “intends” to destroy an ethnic group—the Palestinians. Israel does want to destroy Hamas, a militant group, and is prepared to kill many civilians in doing so. While some Israeli extremists might want to eradicate the Palestinians, that is not a government policy.

This is not okay. This is Nazi logic. Nazi, fascist logic, from The Economist.

Even Nazi Germany did not make killing the official “intention” or government policy in my understanding. At least not always. It was announced as a safety guarantee, for example.

    strip them naked […] forcing them to sit on their knees in the street for hours while being harassed and treated with contempt.

    How many hours does it take to “determine whether they have a bomb vest on,” especially when they are naked?

    Why exactly do they do that while people sit on their knees in the streets and treated with contempt?

    This is really hard to grasp, maybe you can enlighten me.
