Yeah, that part means that you don't have to kill every single Palestinian in order for your deliberate eradicative campaign to be a genocide. It doesn't mean "killing any part of a people is genocide" 🤦
Nope. Of COURSE not. I'm almost completely convinced that you're arguing in bad faith. That or you're extremely literal-minded AND not too smart.. These are not difficult concepts for most people to understand and differentiate once it's pointed out to them.
Yeah, that's a negative. They're trying to kill or displace away from the area every single Gazan and they're already at over 90% displacement.
No, it's a terrorist organization masquerading as a government. Critical infrastructure such as schools and hospitals are de facto run by UNRWA, not Hamas.
That IS their actual target. Your Hasbara hypothetical isn't helpful.
In that purely hypothetical scenario, whether it's still a genocide would depend on a number of factors, including whether or not they take great care to avoid civilian casualties and only target known Hamas targets. They don't, never have, and never will.
Nobody not arguing in bad faith, profoundly confused/ignorant, or colossally dense. Since I gave you the definition, it's either bad faith or stupidity in your case.
No, it's not a widening. It's a specifying that you don't have to successfully eliminate everyone for it to be a genocide. A distinction that most adults not arguing in bad faith have no trouble comprehending.
