Thomas Guénolé on i24News: “What is happening in Gaza is a genocide, it is not I who say it are the specialists. »»

Invited to express themselves on the use of the word “genocide” to qualify the situation in Gaza, the political scientist Thomas Guénolé preferred to rely on the experts. “I am neither Holocaust historian nor specialist in genocides,” he said. He then quoted three indisputable Israeli figures: Amos Goldberg, Daniel Blatman and Omer Bartov, all renowned historians and Holocaust specialists, who bluntly qualify the massacres in Gaza as genocide.

A clear focus, which underlines by contrast the attitude of those who persist in denying the evidence, often without any competence in the matter. Many of these negationists have neither training nor expertise on genocides, but nevertheless explains with confidence, moved by unconditional support in Israel. In reverse of this intellectual imposture, Thomas Guénolé has the merit and integrity of relying on legitimate specialists, those whose work is based on decades of rigorous research. At this stage, negation is no longer an error of analysis, it is a political posture which contributes to the trivialization of the crime.
