Two clarifying principles, before the data:
𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐭, 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞. H-m-s, with the documented support of the majority of Gazan adults (Washington Institute for Near East Policy poll, August 2023; multiple post-October 7 surveys), attacked Israel on October 7 and lost. That is a war they chose. That is not a genocide.
𝐈𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐦 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨, 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞. H-m-s can end the war today. Lay down your weapons. Release the hostages. The sh∗∗ting stops. They will not, because they want to keep attacking Israel. That is also not a genocide.
Now look at the chart. 𝐏𝐨𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡, 𝟏𝟗𝟓𝟎 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲 (World of Statistics):
𝐆𝐚𝐳𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩: +𝟏,𝟎𝟑𝟒%.
𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥: +𝟔𝟎𝟗%.
Gaza’s population grew faster than every Arab Gulf state except Qatar and the UAE. 𝐈𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐰 𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐢𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟. That is not what genocide produces. Genocide is what reduces the Armenian population in eastern Turkey to single-digit percentages of its prewar count. Genocide is what reduces the Tutsi population in Rwanda by 70% in 100 days. Genocide is not a 1,034% expansion under the alleged perpetrator’s presence next door.
Now the casualty figures. Anyone repeating the “70,000 𝘎𝘢𝘻𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘬!𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥” number is repeating the 𝐆𝐚𝐳𝐚 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 number. The Gaza Health Ministry is run by H-m-s. They do not differentiate between civilian and combatant. They do not differentiate between war d∗aths and natural causes. They are the only source for that number, and they have been caught fabricating death tolls in every prior conflict.
Even if you accept the H-m-s number at face value: 70,000 d∗aths divided by the IDF’s reported tonnage of munitions delivered yields a ratio that is 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞. If Israel actually wanted Gaza emptied, no buildings would be standing and no Gazans would be breathing. That has not happened.
