Israeli Holocaust scholar Raz Segal tells Democracy Now! that Israel's war on Gaza constitutes "a textbook case of genocide."
Raz Segal, an Israeli expert in modern genocide, calls Israel's assault on Gaza a textbook case of "intent to commit genocide" and its rationalisation of its violence a "shameful use" of the lessons of the Holocaust.
Israeli state exceptionalism and comparisons of its Palestinians victims to "Nazis" are used to "justify, rationalise, deny, distort, disavow mass violence against Palestinians," says Segal.
