I say it isn't even ethnic cleansing. If the Gazans wanted to live in peace next to Israel, that would be one thing. But since they have expressed a goal of attacking Israel over and over until they finally eliminate it, Israel's options are limited. Relocating them is the least inhumane option.

I'm not going to say genocide because that's NOT what the fuck was ever happening
But relocation of an entire people group to another land during war
ESPECIALLY when those people are refugees
Whether or not they should be
Is ethnic cleansing
Our individual opinion of what ethnic cleansing is is no different than the Hamasniks opinions on genocide & war crimes
Those words have legal definitions that up until now have not been met
If this happens then-
It shouldn't happen
This should not be the solution to this problem
But this is a grave error
I'm not going to say a wrong thing is right because my side does it
I've backed Israel because they have heretofore not strayed beyond international law
I will still back them but this is a mistake
If this occurs
This is directly war crime
Up to this point the state of Israel has not engaged in broad war crimes
Despite what laypeople say. It doesn't fit the legal definition
This proposed action is an actual war crime & holy shit
Jew haters are gonna love that!
