TLDR: The determination by the International Association of Genocide Scholars — which has around 500 members worldwide, including a number of Holocaust experts — could serve to further isolate Israel in global public opinion and adds to a growing chorus of organizations that have used the term for Israel’s actions in Gaza. Israel rejects the accusation and called the resolution an “embarrassment to the legal profession.”
“Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide,” according to group’s resolution, which was supported by 86% of those who voted. The organization did not release the specifics of the voting.
- asdefghyk 1y agoActually, just pointing out ..... In case anyone thinks the 86 percent was of ALL the groups 500 members, its actually 86 % of 28% of all the members. Genocide haS a legal definition, and articles do not say what definition they used ?
