Video Description (from Youtube)

The bombardment is “wholly disproportionate”, the civilian death toll and suffering is “intolerable” and the denial of aid is “unacceptable.” These are not the words of democratic leaders about

Putin’s war on Ukraine but those of the UK, France and Canada about Israel’s ongoing offensive in Gaza. And now President Trump says it’s time for Netanyahu to “wrap it up.”

Israel is allowing some aid to trickle into Gaza after an 11-week blockade but aid workers say it’s a drop in the ocean and the US president has acknowledged that “a lot of people in Gaza are starving.” Are we seeing a genocide?

Piers Morgan speaks to editor-in-chief and CEO of Zeteo Mehdi Hasan and chair of Urban Warfare Studies War Institute Maj. John Spencer (retd.)

Overview & Key Concepts

Who is Piers Morgan?

Piers Morgan (born 1965) is an English broadcaster, journalist and writer. He began his career in 1988 at the tabloid The Sun. In 1994, at the age of

29, he was appointed editor of the News of the World by Rupert Murdoch, which made him the youngest editor of a British national newspaper in more than half a century.

Who is Mehdi Hasan?

Mehdi Raza Hasan (born 1979) is a British political journalist, broadcaster and author. In 2013, Hassan took part in a debate at the Oxford Union to

consider whether Islam is a peaceful religion. Hassan vouched for Islam as a religion of peace, citing political and cultural reasons for violence in Muslim majority countries, as opposed to holding the religion of Islam responsible. In the vote on the motion, the house affirmed with Hassan and the other proposers that Islam is a religion of peace with 286 votes in favor and 168 votes against.

Where is Palestine?

Palestine is a geographic region in Western Asia. It is usually considered to include the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Israel, and in some definitions

some parts of western Jordan. The name was used by ancient Greek writers, and it was later used for the Roman province Syria Palaestina, the Byzantine Palaestina Prima, and the Islamic provincial district of Jund Filastin. The region comprises most of the territory claimed for the biblical regions known as the Land of Israel, the Holy Land or Promised Land. Historically, it has been known as the southern portion of wider regional designations such as Canaan, Syria, ash-Sham, and the Levant. Situated at a strategic location between Egypt, Syria and Arabia, and the birthplace of Judaism and Christianity, the region has a long and tumultuous history as a crossroads for religion, culture, commerce, and politics.

What is a Genocide?

Genocide is intentional action to destroy a people. People are defined as an ethnic, national, racial, or religious group in whole or in part. The

hybrid word "genocide" is a combination of the Greek word genos ("race, people") and the Latin suffix -cide ("act of killing"). The United Nations Genocide Convention, which was established in 1948, defines genocide as "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group". The Political Instability Task Force estimated that, between 1956 and 2016, a total of forty-three genocides took place, causing the death of about 50 million people. The UNHCR estimated that a further 50 million had been displaced by such episodes of violence up to 2008.
<br><br>
The Holocaust is a specific instance of genocide. It refers specifically to the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jewish people by the Nazi regime and its collaborators.

What is Israel?

Israel, officially the State of Israel, is a country in the Middle East. Located on the southeastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea and the northern

shore of the Red Sea. It has land borders with Lebanon to the north, Syria to the northeast, Jordan on the east, the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and Gaza Strip to the east and west, respectively, and Egypt to the southwest.
