    “gen·o·cide [ˈjenəˌsīd] NOUN the deliberate killing or severe mistreatment of a large number of people from a particular national or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group.”

    Genocide has never been about race. Many of the historic genocides have been commited by people of the same race just another distant group in that race.

          Hamas is the elected gov of gaza, they have broad support, it is true that not everyone supports them and obviously they are coercive

          So why doesn’t the world unite against Hamas ?

            Last election was in 2006, and Gaza is essentially full of children. Like about 50% of them are not fully developed adults (25+).

            I do agree that the world should unite against Hamas. Palestinians should be supported though.
