There's no doubt in my mind that Bibi, and certain IDF soldiers have conducted war crimes, and is waging a war in over excessive ways, but it isn't genocide, imho.

Like damaging that last major hospital in Northetn Gaza. Yeah, maybe there are terrorists in there, and that's hideous, but it's still also a place for healing.

It's so complex, but while Israel naturally wants to limit their soldiers' casualties, at the same time to just ruin a hospital instead of going in there, risking their lives combatting, and killing the terrorists, so the hospital's true function can continue, it might be a sacrifice bibi should allow.
I'm not sure, why I say "might".
