A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

To be fair on the population stat, even the most war hawk minds admit that the re-education camps have closed down now and that its no longer ongoing. With China if its being alleged that they have carried out a genocide, you would look at population numbers; A genocide by definition would significantly reduce the amount of people.
Like we see with Palestine, the genocide did not start until recently, only the precursor too it (ethnic cleansing, ghettoization, devaluing of life, apartheid etc) but it would be fair to say the actual genocide (the systematic mass killing) of them has just begun. If its successful or not will be determined by the amount of people killed and if they manage to remove the ethnicity from Gaza entirely, which is the goal.
