Yes, Israel is unequivocally committing genocide in Gaza. Genocide is not just "are they killing everybody", but also "are they driving people from their ancestral homelands"?

Israel is constitutionally an ethnostate. If there is an existing population, there is literally no way to establish an ethnostate without genocide - either through killing or displacement.

Israel is 20% Arab/Muslim with full equal rights, some of them at the highest positions in many fields.

They have Sharia courts, Arabic on road signs and currency, and proportional representation in parliament.

It’s officially a Jewish state. Like there are about 50 countries that are officially Muslim, and many countries that are officially Christian or Atheist.

Muslims do not have full rights, especially those who were murdered and had their land stolen. Do Muslims have the right of return? No. Can any Jew become an Israeli citizen? Yes. There are many other discrepancies.

First, Arabs != Muslims. Second, do Mexicans have the right of return to California?

No, because they lost that territory in a war. Arabs have launched and lost a succession of wars against Israel and, concomitantly, their right to live on territory conquered by Israel in those wars.

Which is obviously why "Free Palestine" marchers regularly show their solidarity with the Germans genocided by Poland: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_and_expulsion_of_German...

Free Danzig! Down with the settler colonialist genocidal state of Poland!!1
