Ethnic Cleansing vs Genocide: What These Terms Actually Mean in International Law | Jeremy Hammond

Donate: 🙏 https://www.buymeacoffee.com/slobodnipoI What is the difference between ethnic cleansing and genocide? In this highlight, Jeremy Hammond explains that ethnic cleansing is commonly used to describe the forced removal of a population, while genocide has a specific legal definition under the 1948 Genocide Convention and the Rome Statute: acts committed with intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Hammond then applies those concepts to Gaza, arguing that deprivation of food, water, fuel, and conditions necessary for survival must be discussed not only politically, but also in legal terms. A short but important clip about language, law, and the meaning of accusation.
