“As per the Genocide Convention, the crime of genocide occurs only where there is specific ‘intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group’,” he said in the letter seen by Reuters.
“The government has not concluded that Israel is acting with that intent.”
Ah, OK. Thank you, England, for helping to create a far more clear definition of “genocide”.
Now I understand that, when a leader says “they deserve to all die” openly on national news, while actively carpet bombing them, it doesn’t mean they have an intent to destroy a certain group.
Looking back I realise how very silly it was to mistake something so direct and obvious as genocide.
