USA is now killing people in Gaza? So anyone who does business with United States is now USAs fault?

The bombs and bullets are from the US. The aircraft carrier in the Gulf protecting Israel is from the US. The attacks on the Houthis are from the US.

When the US directly and indirectly, militarily and financially and even diplomatically in the UN supports a genocide it is responsible.

You aren't willing to credit the US for the genocide being done by the 51st State. 🤡

You still have no idea what genocide is. It’s common for people who don’t know what they’re talking to derail. I’ll oblige.

Israel makes their own weapons and imports from Canada, USA, Italy, Germany, and the UK. Shall we count those countries as committing genocide as well then?

The carrier in the gulf is to prevent a country like Iran from intervening (which would also be more lives lost)

Let me know when you can figure out what genocide is.

Article 2 of the Genocide Convention:

  ... any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such:

    (a) Killing members of the group;
    (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
    (c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
    (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
    (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

How the fuck is this not genocide? This war is part of a broader goal to eradicate the Palestinian national/ethnic group in whole or in part. They are killing, causing serious harm, inflicting conditions calculated to destroy, and preventing births within the group. It's genocide. It's so obviously genocide and that's why the ICJ found in South Africa's favor. They bombed people trying to get flour! It's a god damn genocide.
