There is no Palestinian genocide

[edit]

No matter what one's opinion is, Israel's actions in regards to the Arab population in Israel/Palestine cannot be considered genocide. Serious concern regarding neutrality.

Propose it is removed.

Doing this due to it being controversial and fear of there being a Wiki:Voice. Palestinian Genocide notion seems to be advocated by fringe scholars. Numerous organization and countries and scholars do not accept this as valid (including UN, US, EU etc...) Homerethegreat (talk) 09:03, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that no one has seen this discussion, pageviews has a good clue, and why would they, this is a category talk page? However, there is no doubt that Palestinian genocide accusation is related to Genocides in Asia. The claim that No matter what one's opinion is ... cannot be considered genocide is clearly at odds with certain scholars, e.g. Martin Shaw (sociologist), Lawrence Davidson, Ilan Pappé, etc. These do not appear to be fringe scholars. Furthermore there are many definitions of genocide per Yair Auron: the attempt to define the genocidal act is so complex that it may never be resolved [1], Auron lists definitions by (1) Israel Charny, (2) Helen Fein, (3) Frank Chalk and Kurt Jonassohn, (4) Margot Strom and William Parsons. We should not be fixated on only one definition. Furthermore, the claim about countries and organizations isn't telling the full picture. Officials from various countries (e.g. Turkey, Pakistan) have called the current situation genocide. Just 11 days ago the United Nations was saying the Palestinian people are at grave risk of genocide. starship.paint (RUN) 13:41, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
