> Gaza Holocaust
There was only one Holocaust, the Shoah. Even if the Gaza events qualified as a genocide, a label that can be applied to many such events throughout time and place, that is still not a Holocaust.
- aziaziazi 11mo agoWell if you're going to argue with words, there was one Holocaust but many holocausts: > Extensive destruction of a group of animals or (especially) people; a large-scale massacre or slaughter. However it's discussed if "Holocaust" is a good term to describe the Shoah: > This use of the term has been criticised because it appears to imply that there was a voluntary religious purpose behind the Nazi actions https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/holocaust https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/holocaust
