How many wars kill 5000 children in less than 2 months?

Syria, Libya, Yemen, Ethiopia, Somalia, etc etc

Millions dead. Almost 40 million forcibly displaced.

He was not legally found to have raped her

When the judge says you're guilty, you're guilty.

You were the one who said they were doing it to stop Hamas. So were the 5000+ children part of Hamas or not?

Again, you are forcing a strawman. This war began with the barbarity of October 7th. As with all wars, there are civilian causality.

I also wouldn't put too much faith in the numbers as they come from Hamas. Not only do they not differentiate between their own members and civilians, but have been known to fabricate for propaganda purposes as I explained.

Also, 'legal genocide' is weaseling out of this.

The term genocide is a criminal charge and has a legal definition. Making up a definition is weaseleing out, not using a proper legal definition

Trump didn't 'legally' commit rape against E. Jean Carroll.

Actually, the judge said he did commit rape.

Quite the strawman. People deploying the word "genocide" are either ignorant of what the word means or are intentionally misusing it for political purposes because they would otherwise be faced with having to discuss why this war began at all. Word play debates do little to alleviate people’s suffering. Denial of the other side’s humanity & dueling victimhood, eliminate empathy. We’ve had FEW cases of legal genocide since 1948, the question is how do these debates help long term?

Nations at war do this. Lend/)ease during WWII was the largest loan delay there was.

The "genocide" debate here is activists trying to seize the high ground after Hamas's hideous acts. Their hope, after an assault of such barbarity, is to label the response "genocidal" and hope that people chase that shiny lure instead of remembering why this war happened at all.

PEDS is full, but the rest of the hospital functions.

At one time the mayor of that city was Oglala Sioux. Now, Connie has successfully made it racist stupid all by herself.
