The unlawful conduct of the Israeli state in regard to Arabs can hardly be called genocide. Ethnic cleansing perhaps, but there is no effort at deliberately killing large numbers of Arabs that should be required for it to warrant the description genocide. What the Israeli state has done and continues to do is reprehensible and I do not shirk from calling it what it is, a series of grave violations of international law which to date has gone unanswered.
The deaths of Iraqis that have occurred as a result of the unlawful attack on that country by the US and UK and later civil disturbance is also not genocide. It is the natural consequence of war as it affects a population and the natural consequence of the type of civil disturbance that followed. As such it ought to give pause to those who call for military action without, apparently, any understanding of such consequences, and demand an adequate answer from those who prompted it on very shaky premises, if any there be, in this instance.
However the gist of the argument seems to be that both instances are the actions of, or are otherwise unremedied according to the influence of, powerful Jewish lobbies in the US and worldwide. If such a premise can be proven then this should be done without delay. As such however, even if proven, it does not in any way establish that the nazi genocide did not happen or may be minimised or excused or justified, just as the above allegations should not be minimised, excused or justified on account of the nazi genocide.
