The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security has been calling it a genocide since 2023: Statement on Why We Call the Israeli Attack on Gaza Genocide. Btw Lemkin is the person who first quoted and defined the term Genocide.
And what Le Monde has to say on the topic is:
what his leftist government called “the genocide in Gaza.”
They are clearly supporting the Genocide in Palestine.
You think Le Monde is supporting the genocide because they are quoting? Isn’t it standard for a non-editorialized article?
If you check their section on Gaza, the opinion pieces (“tribune”) they published seem to be all supporting Gaza. https://www.lemonde.fr/la-guerre-de-gaza/
And that’s what the rest of the world should be doing, too. Also shutting down operations of any Israeli corporations in their countries, and terminating any subsidies.
Good move from Spain here.
That’s like the bare minimum anyone could do… It’s such a shame that a country as vocal as Spain is only doing it two years into the genocide. I have no hope for this world. I’d rather die once with my dignity together with all Palestinians, than keep dying everyday in this shit world.
From what I understand it wasn’t a contract with a Israeli company but a public contract awarded to consortium of Spanish companies which were supposed to buy some components from Israel. The government stopped ordering arms from Israel two years ago. Now they are taking it further.
It’s not a shame. Genocides typically get a lot larger, and the Palestinian genocide, while 75+ years in the making, hasn’t reached other enormous genocides yet.
64,000 killed directly, 325,000 indirectly. That means there is plenty of time to do something about it and why it’s good for any country to cancel their arms trade.
Out of a population of… correct me if I’m wrong, but I think 2.2 million?
5.6m I’m talking palestians period, not just Gaza or West Bank.
Ty for the info.
Appalling either way.
