And, this certainly applies in the case of Israel's war being waged against the Palestinian people in Gaza (with spillover effects in the West Bank and East Jerusalem as the IDF supports settler Israelis in their hostile acts of dispossession and displacement of the Palestinians in those quarters)." </td> <td style="background:#9EFF9E;color:black;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center;" class="table-yes">Yes </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.jornada.com.mx/noticia/2024/01/23/politica/comunidad-academica-de-mexico-llama-a-condenar-genocidio-en-gaza-9116">1,600 academics</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-01-23-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">23 January 2024</span> </td> <td>Various, some relevant </td> <td><a href="/wiki/La_Jornada" title="La Jornada">La Jornada</a> </td> <td>"<span title="Spanish-language text"><i lang="es">Luego de rechazar cualquier discurso de odio o discriminación, llamaron a los universitarios de todo el país a apoyar diversas acciones, entre ellas sumarse al exhorto que lanzaron mas de mil 600 académicos de todo el continente a los gobiernos progresistas de América Latina para que actúen de forma conjunta contra el “genocidio” y presionen por un alto al fuego inmediato.</i></span>" [After rejecting any hate speech or discrimination, they called on university students throughout the country to support various actions, including joining the exhortation launched by more than 1,600 academics from all over the continent to the progressive governments of Latin America to act together against the "genocide" and press for an immediate ceasefire.] </td> <td style="background:#9EFF9E;color:black;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center;" class="table-yes">Yes </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ejiltalk.org/rebutting-allegations-of-genocide-against-israel/">Flasch</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-01-10-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">10 January 2024</span> </td> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ejiltalk.org/author/oflasch/">Legal Consultant in Public International Law, with a focus on armed conflict</a> </td> <td>EJIL:Talk! - Blog of the European Journal of International Law </td> <td>"Despite having been firmly established in international law for three quarters of a century, the definition and requisite elements of the international crime of genocide appear to have been misunderstood or, in some cases, deliberately misapplied, seemingly by both scholars and laypersons.", "Labelling Israel's military operation against Hamas as an act of genocide may threaten to undo 75 years of work to prevent and punish the commission of genocide, by diluting and diminishing the effect of the Genocide Convention." </td> <td style="background:#FFC7C7;color:black;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center;" class="table-no">No </td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://global.upenn.edu/perryworldhouse/news/explaining-international-court-justices-ruling-israel-and-gaza">Burke-White</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-02-08-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">8 February 2024</span> </td> <td>Professor of international law </td> <td><a href="/wiki/University_of_Pennsylvania" title="University of Pennsylvania">University of Pennsylvania</a> website </td> <td>"It should be noted that genocide is an incredibly difficult crime to prove.

Because proving genocide is complex, and to obtain a conviction, it is necessary to demonstrate before the Court the precise "intention" to commit it." </p> </td> <td style="background: #FF8; color:black; vertical-align: middle; text-align: center;" class="table-maybe">Maybe </td> <td>Not in the article </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.vox.com/politics/378913/israel-gaza-genocide-icj">Jones</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-10-25-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">25 October 2024</span> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Adam_Jones_(Canadian_scholar)" title="Adam Jones (Canadian scholar)">Political scientist, specialising in genocide</a>; author of genocide textbook <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/10.4324/9781003185291/genocide-adam-jones">[5]</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Vox_(website)" title="Vox (website)">Vox (website)</a> </td> <td>"Any early hesitation I had about applying the 'genocide' label to the Israeli attack on Gaza has dissipated over the past year of human slaughter and the obliteration of homes, infrastructure, and communities" </td> <td style="background:#9EFF9E;color:black;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center;" class="table-yes">Yes </td> <td>Already in article </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.vox.com/politics/378913/israel-gaza-genocide-icj">Verdeja</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-10-25-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">25 October 2024</span> </td> <td>Professor of peace studies and global politics (with a focus on genocide) <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="https://politicalscience.nd.edu/people/ernesto-verdeja/">[6]</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Vox_(website)" title="Vox (website)">Vox (website)</a> </td> <td>"it could be 'called a genocide, even in a narrow legal sense, for several months now' given the accumulation of Israeli attacks clearly and consistently targeting the civilian population in Gaza." </td> <td style="background:#9EFF9E;color:black;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center;" class="table-yes">Yes </td> <td>Already in article </td></tr> <tr> <td><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/nov/06/we-are-witnessing-the-final-stage-of-genocide-in-gaza">Bartov</a> </td> <td><span data-sort-value="000000002024-11-06-0000" style="white-space:nowrap">6 November 2024</span> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Omer_Bartov" title="Omer Bartov">Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="https://vivo.brown.edu/display/obartov#Background">[7]</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/The_Guardian" title="The Guardian">The Guardian</a> </td> <td>"The ICJ will likely not rule for years about whether the situation in Gaza meets the narrow legal definition of a genocide.

The statement "if A is included, then B should be included", where A=Gaza genocide and B=Allied bombing campaigns is an invalid decision procedure. The inclusion of B has no dependency on the inclusion of A, or vice versa. The inclusion test for this article is "classified as genocide by significant scholarship" and that test should be applied independently to A and B. So, you can see that providing a civilian death toll statistic wouldn't tell you anything about whether an event has been "classified as genocide by significant scholarship". Only sampling reliable sources can answer that question. <a href="/wiki/User:Sean.hoyland" title="User:Sean.hoyland">Sean.hoyland</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Sean.hoyland" title="User talk:Sean.hoyland">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_genocides#c-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112093200" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:48, 12 November 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112093200"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112093200"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112095900-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800"></span>It's an interesting thing to think about. In germany 300-400k civillians were bombed, and in Japan a similar number were killed by the atomic bombs. These were defensive wars fought by the US and UK. But in abscence of some journalist/scholar calling that Genocide, it isn't, and the bombing of gaza, which is a defensive war fought by Israel, is a genocide because a scholar did. Where is the explanation for why Gaza is a genocide in distinction to other strategic bombing such as in ww2? And why is the fact that international courts have not determined gaza to be a genocide taken into account? <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500" title="Special:Contributions/2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500">2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500</a> (<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User talk:2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500 (page does not exist)">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:List_of_genocides#c-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112095900-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:59, 12 November 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112095900-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112095900-Sean.hoyland-20241112094800"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Czello-20241112100100-2A00:23C5:6433:4301:6DA1:980D:A0D:4500-20241112095900"></span>Fundamentally you're correct about a lot of this analysis, but ultimately it's <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OR">WP:OR</a>.

I find not thinking about it, not caring and just following the policies and guidelines works better in Wikipedia. Having an expectation of consistency, that things should make sense, seems to be almost always wrong. Reliable sources just say what they say.

Reason: Significant scholarship calling this as a genocide is not currently cited, instead a litany of speculative op-eds has been listed such as under Citation 14. A very large amount of coal doesn't constitute diamonds, it is the verifiability of the sources which count.
