Add Avi Shlaim (Oxford University professor), to your list of Jewish scholars who condemn the genocie in Gaza -- in fact his latest book is termed "Genocide in Gaza". And then there is Peter Beinart, and Ilan Pappe.
Israel has been committing a slow-moving genocide since 1948.
The annexation of Palestine was always intended to be genocidal, and was always intended to usurp the entirety of that land.
People call Oct 2023 a "failure" of Israeli intelligence, but it looked a hell of a lot more like opportunism to me.
Israel was warned of the attack, Israel let the attack happen, and Israel literally took part in the attack (Israel tried to Hannibal everyone Hamas was unwilling to kill).
After all that, Israel STILL found the reality of the attack to be insufficiently awful, so it FICTIONALIZED horrors to justify what it had planned.
Israel then exploited the attack — including its own attack, as well as its purely fictional (and intensely deranged) horror-stories — for every last drop of venom that it could milk out of the supposedly-civilized world, so that Israel could complete its genocidal annexation of Palestine.
The genocide didn't really start in 2023. You were already being far too gentle with the monster, when its flying monkeys started coming after you, in bad faith, to play at being offended.
I agree fully with what you say & said & wrote that within 3 days of the start,Israel is very devious & not to be trusted their spokes people are trained Liars, never trust them.
Thanks again Owen. When I was Year 8 students, who were mostly from Arabic and Islamic backgrounds, about the Holocaust, in 2023, some of them would make comparisons between Israel and the Nazis. I would always push back against this. But I had to ask myself, when would this comparison become valid? "Israel has not built death camps..." I would tell the class. But seriously, do you have to wait until people are lined up outside the gas chambers before you make the comparison?

You're absolutely right, but I only listed academic specialists in the field of genocide.
