The CBC and BBC got it right.

BBC says “alleged airstrike”. For anyone questioning how media is helping “washing” the genocide.
It goes like this:
Not sure how international institutions can make it clearer.
Of course they’re committing genocide.
And yet there has never been a successful conviction of genocide against Israel in any legal forum.
After 20+ years of genocide claims, the life expectancy in gaza is greater then in Egypt where there is no genocide.
Typical fascist propaganda, the enemy is both too strong and too weak. Israel i strong enough to do genocide but they are so weak that their genocidal efforts amount to less harm against palestine then if Israel handed control over to Egypt, who is not doing genocide.
This link here, shows all the stages of genocide; The ten stages of genocide. A quick glance and we can determin already that's Israel is on stage 8. There's currently a whole trial ongoing about Israeli's genocide on Palestinian people
Any evidence of this heavy statement or is this ''source: trust me, a stranger on the internet''? Because this claim is so absurd, I cannot even take it seriously.
I don't even understand what you mean with this sentence. What do you mean?
From what I get from all your comments, you support Israel, their Apartheid, murdering behavior. If I'm wrong, correct me.
This should be a wakeup call to you that your belief system is inherently flawed and based on propaganda.
The truth, to you, is so absurd that you can't take it seriously?
In 2022, the average life expectancy in the West Bank and Gaza was 75.4 years for females and 73.2 years for males.
The life expectancy for Egypt in 2022 was 72.38 years for males, and 67.2 for females.

It’s so absurd because you give zero sources in your first comment. Any stranger from the internet can claim anything and pretend its the truth. So yes, I’m immensely skeptical when it is without sources.
Like I said in another comment, I might comment make later on. Not at home right now.
You also didn’t give any answer to my other question and ignored the 10 stages of genocide link.
I would also like to say, my views are based on history and not propoganda. I’ve read what Israel has been doing since 1948 up until now (ongoing). But you seem to ignore all the facts about Israel’s past and all the trustable links so it can fit your narrative.
EDIT: corrected word, added bit more context.
If your views are based on history according to biased sources then your views will be biased.
The two dominate ideologies in palestine are islamism which is more popular in Gaza and is exemplified by the Islamic resistance movement (hamas) and palestinian islamic jihad; offshoots of the Egyptian Muslim brootherood, a group founded after the collapse of the Ottoman empire with the goal of reforming the islamic caliphate with Jerusalem as the capital. The other ideology is pan arab nationalist socialism, which is more popular in the west bank with groups such as PA and fatah, which were heavily influenced by syrian bathisim, which was created in 1940 literally inspired by Italian fascism and nazi german national socialism.
Both ideologies in palestine are totalitarian dictatorships.
Totalitarian dictatorships are liars. The foundation of fascist propaganda is the "nazi big lie", always accuse your enemy of doing what you do.
Ergo, what palestine accuses Israel of doing, palestine already does.
Example 1 : palestine fires unguided rockets at random into israeli civilian cities and when the rocket launchers are targeted with precision guided munitions for destruction = palestine claims israel is Indiscriminately bombing palestine
Example 2 : palestine makes it so Jews are not legally allowed to live in palestine, the punishment for selling things to a jew is death = palestine claims israel does aparthide
Example 3 : palestine attacks israel and murders random civilians at a music festival = palestine claims israel does genocidal attacks against palestine
Edit : stuff
It’s quite clear that everything that does not fit your narrative is ‘’biased’’. I have many links that are from different sources, different countries and non-Arab countries. You do not give any response to these trustable sources, probably because you have no valid argument to give.
EDIT: I wanted to add on this that you called all my sources “biased”. The source about the Ten Stages of Genocide is from “Holocaust Memorial Day Trust”. Just wanted to let you know that, do what you want with that particular knowledge.
You suddenly make this about religion, out of literally nowhere. It is not about religion in this debate, it is about human lives and rights. Stop changing subjects/ topics and trying to confuse readers.
You didn’t read the link then.
