Here's what genocide looks like in numbers:
1939: 9.5 million Jews lived in Europe.
1945: 3.5 million left alive.
Here is Gaza
Gaza 2005: 1.35 million
Gaza 2023: 2.2 million
Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry says 74,494 have died since. That is about one in thirty, and the count includes fighters. Every death is a tragedy. But a population that grows by two thirds and loses one in thirty in a war it started is not a genocide.
Hipkins should know the difference.
