I Pieter object to the term genocide, there is a war with victims but there is not a genocide.

Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group". These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly.

Israel does want to destroy and uproot Hamas with all means possible, but it's aim is not to eliminate the Palestinian people.

Thank you for introducing the actual meaning and description of Genocide. So many as primarily appear to use this term as a misleading label against Israel as a shock term to propagate their seemingly hate.
