Do me a favor, if you're going to attempt to debate this topic with me, at least do a little research, because it's glaringly apparent you've done none.

I hope you realize that the first reports of the "beach attack" they were claiming it was shelling from an Israeli ship, such-and-such mm shells, if that were the case, you'd find a massive crater, not someone's beach gear littered all over the place, and you sure as hell would be finding body parts.
Unfortunately for you, it was never even proven that Israel was at fault.
You're telling me that their attempts of attacking Hamas, whilst doing so killing many civilians, and whether you like it or not they are globally known as Palestinians, is not genocide?
Firstly, children in Gaza are raised militarily. "Martyrdom" is praised, and you'll find it on Hamas TV/children's shows where they glorify death and the killing of Jews.

In Gaza, you'll find bilboards of children killed in action. Another fact, there are literal children "martyr brigades" in Gaza/Hamas' "military."
The majority of the "civilians" killed in the last military conflict were part of martyr brigades, your single defense is that they're underage.
They may claim to be attacking Hamas, but doing so and killing thousands of Palestinians and removing them from their land, just to claim the Palestinian land as their own, is genocide, terrorism, crimes of war.

Israel went to great lengths to reduce civilian casualties, you're ignorant if you don't believe so.
To quote General Dempsey,
I actually do think that Israel went to extraordinary lengths to limit collateral damage and civilian casualties

However, this is another factor you're ignorant of.
If anything those Israeli's define as Hitler.
Is this a joke? Or are you legitimately making this claim? Hitler forcefully rounded up Jews and other minority groups and purposely attempted to exterminate them. There is not a single similarity..
Just so we're clear I stated Palestinians, whether their mixed Morroccan-Palestinian, Arab, Greek or what ever, it doesn't matter to me. You cannot give me the entire Arab population growth when this is specific to Palestinians in Palestine, and the illegal occupation of said land by Israeli's, which is due to acts of crimes within the illegal war of territory being committed by Israeli's. The Arab population defines many countries, many people around the globe, not specifically to Palestinians.
What's illegal about it exactly? Defined by what "law" is Israel any more illegitimate or legitimate than the other nations in the surrounding area?
Cite the exact law to define "illegal occupation" and "acts of crime" in "illegal war."
Lastly, I asked twice before, i'll ask again, provide proof of cultural distinction. Why would Arabs prior to Arafat claim to be "Palestinian" when the name is foreign in origin? They can't even properly pronounce/spell Palestine to begin with. There goes your entire argument.
The reason why this isn't defined as genocide, is because America and Saudi Arabia have fueled Israeli's dome, which in their eyes is some sort of protection for Israeli's.
Nice propaganda there buddy.
Yes Hamas has caused as much atrocities, but when Palestinians have no way to shelter from Israeli fire, which is directed at Civilians it is genocide.
Directed at civilians? If genocide was the goal, Gaza would be flattened in minutes. But do tell me, what's Israel's end-goal if "genocide" is their current goal, when Israel gets nothing for giving up Gaza, FORCEFULLY evicting the entire Jewish population there, and bringing Hamas closer to their major cities?
Edit: It's understandable based upon history that it may not be the most correct form of definition for their nationality, but it's globally accepted, and I'll accept it for that seeing as Palestinians call themselves Palestinians now.
Yes, a name that they borrowed from the Greeks. lol
E: Oh and to respond to those first three links. Implying everyone is somehow cheering for the killing of civilians, right? Assuming the conclusion is known as a logical fallacy. Try again.
E2: I should probably throw this in there also.

The man with more authority than any other Arab at the time was Emir Faisal. He signed a formal agreement to relinquish the region of Palestine to the Jews, contingent upon Arabs obtaining their independence. However, thwarted by the idiotic French, who threw a wrench in it all.
Many of the positions you defend are 100% refuted in this video through Faisal's own words and actions, if you come back with some bogus comment that is addressed in the above documentary, i'm going to simply ignore it. Because if you won't listen to the words of an Arab King, who are you going to listen to?
