Genocide or Mass Murder?" This is no trivial question, nor an easy one to answer. Today, our guest, Professor #Mearsheimer forces us to confront this uncomfortable inquiry in relation to the current crisis unfolding in Gaza. With the unsettling language emanating from Israeli elites, #mearsheimer brings to light the alarming realities on the battleground, leading to concerns of potentially genocidal intent. While we are not asserting that genocide is being committed, we underline the gravity of mass murder and the potential for situations to spiral dangerously.

We then pivot into dissecting the distinction between genocide and mass murder or #warcrimes—a pivotal differentiation that has profound implications. In our analysis, we scrutinize the troubling rhetoric from members of the Israeli cabinet, while distinguishing between genocidal intent and the act of genocide. We navigate the inconsistent enforcement of international law and its selective application. This episode challenges us all to consider the depths of war crimes, #genocide, and their impacts. It's not an easy conversation, but it's a necessary one to fully comprehend the #Gaza crisis.
