Yeah it takes some time to build up that kind of propaganda. You can't just accuse Israel of genocide in the first week, otherwise people will catch on that you're pushing an anti-Israel agenda and just making shit up. Maybe next week it'll be time to start saying this is a genocide regardless of what's actually happening.
Not every war is genocidal though. Kinda remains to be seen if this one is.
Definitely war crimes though, hitting residential areas, public broadcast networks. Israel is a "western" Russia.
Yeah, not going to find me arguing there. If they aren't committing war crimes, was it really Israel? I fucking hate Israel. I found myself hoping (rather bad of me) that Iran had already made at least one nuke and could send it. Israel has been allowed to get away with abhorrent atrocities for far too long.
Who gave Israel the right to have nukes and decide who else does, they are the aggressor in the region.
