The boys that were transported by buses into the woods of Srebrenica and gunned down?

The millions that starved to death in Ukraine during Holodomor?

to use the same word for a war, ome that they can end tomorrow just by uttering a credible claim about wanting to release the hostages?

Because if Gaza is a genocide, then we must also talk about the genocide of the Germans in 1944 and 1945. But for some reason we don't call it a genocide when somebody forces someone else to stop them.

Except when that someone else is Israel.

This fits a broader pattern BTW:

Hamas executes possible the worst sexual terrorism since the rape of Nanking in 1937: not a word about war crimes.

Israel hit a legitimate target hidden in civilian hotspot: waRcRiem!

Surrounding countries have various apartheid laws: nothing to see.

Israel being a democracy where every citizen can vote, be in the government, be a judge in the Supreme Court: apArthEid!

When will people stop and look at the evidence?
