Netanyahu's corruption trial has became a struggle for Israel itself (www.abc.net.au)

I haven't read it, know nothing about the author or their intent. Maybe they used a term they expected to get past censors; maybe they're a shitlib at heart, maybe the publisher changed it and they were mad as fuck. Plenty of possibilities.

My statement, I believe; stands.

Do you often find yourself standing with your fingers in you ears saying 'bla bla bla I can't hear you' when confronted with a slightly different view point?

It is a genocide, my point is that the Zionist project's goal of forced expulsion is far more encompassing, both in methods and timeframe. Which historians have gone into much detail about within their decades of works.

No, but then I wouldn't know if it did; I wouldn't be able to hear.

Fair point
