“What has taken place in Gaza is not only a genocide, but it is also an ecocide,” Erdogan said to applause by world leaders and other climate envoys.

A U.N.-backed panel of independent experts concluded last year that Israel had committed genocide in Gaza. Israel vehemently denies the allegations and has accused the panel of antisemitism.

    What’s the threshold? Arguably the United Stated had been committing ecocide on massive scales for decades.

    Being anti-Israel and antisemitic are not the same thing. You can be one or the other (or both). The Israeli state and military are commiting genocide, the fact they are Jewish (though not all are) is used as their defence to deflect. I would argue that none of them truly are. Don’t all religions promote piece? Six of one, they’re all a bunch of crap.
