It cannot be both a genocide and a war. You're intentionally misrepresenting the situation while using the state narrative's verbiage.

Also the Germans didn't lose the war to the Jewish population specifically so what is your point?..

Is it a war in Palestine or a slaughter?

Historically that's total nonsense. Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia were at war during the Nazi Holocaust in Russia that killed over a hundred thousand people. Are you saying that wasn't genocide? I find that absurd.

Israel declared war on Hamas, but that's still a genocide. Russia didn't declare war until last month. Ukraine hasn't declared war, they're being invaded. So how does your distinction make any sense?
