They are war crimes but they are very clearly not genocide.

but they are very clearly not genocide.

Only for lack of success.

I mean, their founding constitution literally says death to Israel. Lack of success is literally the only reason why.

Doesn't justify Israel war crime, but people should atleast understand what both sides goals are.

No, no, they totally and radically changed in 2017, please ignore any history, context, statements, or actions past that point.

Good point. A renewed charter can be a sign of change but also a sign of trying to normalize one's organization.

No it was pretty clear that they were not trying eradicate everyone. You don't get 33% military kills when you're going for genocide.

They shouldn't have killed any civilians, but I understand why they'd attack an illegal settlement right outside their open air prison.
