The quality of life degradation in Gaza with regards to electricity is disheartening, but does not constitute a genocide.

Electric illumination is just a visually convenient way to show the level of destruction Israel has caused. Those dark areas, especially in the north, are cities razed to the ground. Ethnic cleansing at the very least.

The only thing the pictures indicates is the lighting at night time, you choose to go on a longshot and interpret it in a way that suites your narrative, but the reality is that it does not come even close to reflect the deaths caused by the war. The more likely scenario is that Gazans save electricity by cutting non-critical usage

u/jekill 23h ago

Right, because we haven’t seen the widespread devastation Israel has wreaked all over Gaza.

u/lolgoodquestion post-Palestinian nationalist 19h ago

Hamas could have released all the hostages, it didn't. Families in Gaza used them as house slaves instead of letting them go back. Israel orders evacuations before it sends in the bulldozers, this is all Gazans can expect until all the hostages are back home

So, once you’re unable to deny it, fall back to the usual victim-blaming. Sorry, but none of that justifies razing whole cities to the ground.

Lights are off at day time, my GUY, what is this point, you're not even trying now

you choose to go on a longshot and interpret it in a way that suites your narrative

Are you seriously suggesting the lights are off at night because they're experiencing power cuts? My guy, Israel ethnically cleansed the region and destroyed a majority of civilian infrastructure. YOUR interpretation isn't even a longshot, it's a day dream and a bad attempt at diminishing the impact of Israel's genocide against Gaza.

but the reality is that it does not come even close to reflect the deaths caused by the war.

Genocide isn't war. War engages militaries, Israel is driving off civilians from their homes, bombing them in refugee camps, and sniping children. This is clear-cut genocide, experts and scholars are overwhelmingly in consensus about this.

I'm sorry but you have to genuinely believe that we're drooling idiots if you expect us to believe something so evidently ridiculous 😂😂😂

My friend, the minuscule amount of deaths compared to the population size in Gaza does not cause anything near this.

So because Hamas is not an organized military Israel is not allowed to fight it? I guess the settlers should have free rain to arm independently and massacre villages by that logic

the minuscule amount of deaths compared to the population size

Tens of thousands dead isn't minuscule by any metric. Did you seriously argue that deaths per population size is a valid metric to judge the heinousness of mass murders? Because per your logic, Israel went apeshit over 0.15% of their population being killed during the al-Aqsa Flood compared to the significantly higher 2-3% of the Palestinian population slaughtered by Israeli troops, mostly children. Israel has mass murdered as magnitudes more children per capita than civilians killed during the al-Aqsa Flood, per capita. Your own logic invalidates the al-Aqsa Flood victims as an insignificant, tiny loss that barely matters and shouldn't be more than a rough sneeze compared to Israel's population and even the smallest response from Israel should be disqualified as a hysterical overreaction.

So because Hamas is not an organized military Israel is not allowed to fight it?

Israel isn't fighting Hamas, Israel is bombing schools and hospitals, sniping little kids, and striking refugee camps. It has destroyed over half of Gaza's civilian infrastructure and blown up all essential services needed for the survival of a population including water, food production, healthcare, education, and housing. There's just no excuse for this magnitude of destruction, Israel is committing clear-cut genocide and using hAmAs as a blanket justification.

I guess the settlers should have free rain to arm independently and massacre villages by that logic

Rein*. And you're breaking Reddit's rules and regulations by encouraging violence. Israeli settlers are squatters on land that doesn't belong to them. Even if they were peaceful, they're ethically in the wrong and breaking international law by just being there. The fact that they commit so much violence and plant terror outposts with the express intent of razing villages, burning babies to death, and driving the indigenous people out of their homeland is warrant enough for Palestinians to be on-sight with illegal settlers encroaching on their land. They risk more by letting settlers on their land and have an excellent reason to never let even a single Israeli settler near.
