What’s more, ethnic cleansing has accompanied Israeli expansion in the past, and to a lesser degree, Israeli settlements in recent history. If Hamas wins, there will be no Israel. If hard-liners in Israel win, there will be no Palestine.

Israel ethnically cleansed during 1948 independence war, and not everywhere.

No, only 90% of the country. Oh, and then again through 1956. And then again in '67.

What was the world’s response then?

Fuck, what’s the world’s response to the ongoing genocide in China?

FUCK, what’s the world’s response to the invasion and genocide perpetuated by Russia?

The idea that we’d all band together and shun a country until the genocide ended is not backed by evidence. Especially not since a third of the US thinks Israel has to exist for their prophesized end times to come about, and for that reason, supports them unconditionally.

Saying Israel would simply wipe out Palestine if they were genocidal is overselling it though. Yeah i doubt they have any specific plans, but also they need the cheap Palestinian labor to continue running Israel. They can’t just get rid of all the Palestinians.
