The “radical Islamic fundamentalism” thing was a cynical, racist ploy from the GOP to fire up their little hogs. We call it a genocide because it is a genocide, jfc this isn’t hard. If there was a word that described something worse than a genocide I would use that word, because what is happening in Gaza is one of the worst crimes committed in this world in decades.

eat my entire ass, genocide denier
