It's not war, it's genocide

It's not war, it's genocide


It's not war, it's genocide


I just read that the missing Red Crescent Workers who went missing several days ago were rounded up and assassinated. This morning, I saw a father cradling the head of his darling boy.The last members of the press in Gaza are increasingly being hunted down and murdered. The Oscar winning Director of ‘No Other Land’ was attacked and savagely beaten by Israeli settlers this week. More than 40,000 people have been displaced in the West Bank.


And all of this is being documented, shared and celebrated by members of the IOF and the Israeli government. Nobody is bothering to hide the atrocities or the intentions. They are also weaponising the use of the word ‘antisemitic’ so if you have a heart or a human being and are opposed to these atrocities, you are antisemitic.

 

The whole thing would defy belief if it wasn’t so horrifically and heart breakingly real.   

 

 

It’s not war, it’s genocide

 

The most devastating weapons of war

designed to cause mass casualties.

Bombs so numerous and deadly,

that the equivalence surpasses

two nuclear bombs.

The most advanced, precise

and deadly weaponry in the world.

Never-before used weapons that

vaporise, evaporate and pulverise.

The most terrifying death technology

the world has ever seen.

And in this ‘war’

they are using of all of this,

against

canvas tents, wooden tent poles

babes in incubators,

refugees sleeping in school yards,

patients attached to IV lines

and rescue workers wearing flipflops.

The facts have never been more documented

or more vehemently denied,

it’s not war,

it’s genocide.
