As of 10 December 2024, according to Wikipedia, over 46,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza. 70% of these deaths have been women and children. This number has been confirmed by Reuters, the BBC, CNN, and the AP, amongst others.

A recent investigation by Amnesty International has concluded Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

I ask the reader, how will these actions bring lasting peace to the Region? How will these actions reduce hate and animosity between people? How will these killings ensure a safe future for the State of Israel?

And finally I ask, have we, the Jewish people, forgotten the meaning of Genocide? Is the cry “Never Again,” a proprietary ideal, or one that applies to all of humanity?
