I call it racist. I don't call it "genocide" because as a Belgian, you should know that has a very specific meaning.
i agree, i wouldn't call it genocide either. maybe soft ethnic cleansing.

I thought the rationalization for the German people was that they didn't know it was going on? I don't know really. But hey, who am I to judge, we threw the Japanese in Internment camps so how much better than Israel are we?

That's the rationalization, but in actual reality people just didn't give a poo poo because they didn't see the gas chambers personally.

One wonders why if we were willing to bomb all of Europe and Japan into ash and totally rebuild all of it why didn't we do that with Iraq.

edit: The rebuilding part, not the ash part.

Actually America spent a fuckton on all that stuff in Iraq, but problematically it entrusted its funds to private business to do things.

I like using words to express what they mean, rather than for shock value, and make accusations that are substantiated, because I don't only talk to an echo-chamber of people who hate Israel and/or American foreign policy, and I would rather, when I make accusations or critique people or policies, be able to confidently back my poo poo up instead of getting into heated ad hominems and waffle on the details. Some people here seem to think that that is the height of Zionist American Exceptionalist Racism. That is their prerogative, because we live in America, and people are allowed to hold and express wrong opinions. :patriot:

At this point I'm honestly tired of people crowing communism, not just because I don't believe it will work (human nature, bruh, it'll end up poorly all the time), but because I want to see someone come up with something new and more relevant to a world in which the global market dominates everything. Karl Marx is loving dead and dust, why not do something new.

Helpfully many countries signed a treaty defining it:

quote:

Article II: In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

well, you need neither Full Communism nor Novel Solutions to deal with a lot of this poo poo: you need a somewhat efficient and transparent bureaucracy that is not constantly looking for every possible excuse to turn over its essential functions to corporate interests

the failings of the iraqi rebuild are pretty straightforward and well-documented, so "let's do not that' is a fair blueprint

The global market has been a dominant force in political economy for centuries, imo. Marx was and is still relevant.
