It means uprising. Not killing jews. - On the other hand Israel‘s cabinet (Netanyahu, Gallant, Herzog, Ben Gvir, Smotrich) actively call for genocide: Netanyahu by comparing Palestinians to Amalek, of whom the Old Testament says „kill them all, men, children, women, babies, unborn“. Herzog said: „no innocents in Gaza“, meaning justified to kill children. Gallant: „human animals!“, cuts water, food, medicines for over 80 days. These and more statements and the actions of IDF are documented on a 85 page[1] accusation of South Africa against Israel accusing them of Genocide in Gaza. So while you insinuate „intifada“ means „genocide“, Israel is apparently engaging in genocidal acts. [1]: https://www.icj-cij.org/case/192 https://www.icj-cij.org/case/192

Nobody, on either side of this conflict, is being careful with their words.

  Well, do you compare the whole leadership of a western nation to a terror group? Shouldn’t a civilised country avoid calling for genocide? Or held accountable if they did?

    This is a good example of what I just said. I don't think there's much for us to learn, or to hash out, or to be curious about, by trying to pick apart what you just said there. It's written in a way to foreclose further discussion. That's fine, though; this subthread has not all that much to do with Claudine Gay.

  > Nobody, on either side of this conflict, is being careful with their words. I don't know for sure, but Hamas and Netanyahu's coalition have been masters of public communication. I think they are very careful and strategic, and know what they're doing. I think it's like saying an experienced, highly expert developer isn't being careful with their code.
