Now there's more than one Holocaust
The Holocaust specifically refers to the genocide of the Jewish people during WW2, if we talk about genocides in general there are many around the world:

That is not to excuse the people that do it, just to combat the idea that genocide happened once and will never again and only the nazis are capable of it.
The whole imperialist system is built on top of genocide and should be abolished because of it!
Incorrect - the word is actually Greek in origin and goes back quite a ways before WW2
hol·o·caust /ˈhäləˌkôst,ˈhōləˌkôst,ˈhäləˌkäst,ˈhōləˌkäst/ noun 1. destruction or slaughter on a mass scale, especially caused by fire or nuclear war. "a nuclear holocaust"
I'm taking away the term "holocaust" from their exclusive use. There's no reason why it should be reserved for their genocide by the Nazis that they're emulating now.
To preface: Fuck Israel and the atrocities they are committing in this genocide.
All Jews were specifically targeted during the Holocaust. These people are Israeli. While they happen to be Jewish, don't conflate the two. It's verging on actual antisemitic sentiment.

Nope, I'm not advocating anything against the Jews nor denying the atrocities that happened to them. I'm just taking away their special noun and using it against Israel.
You may not be advocating for anything but this is the kind of shit bad actors love to latch on to.
Israel is committing a genocide. Israel's intent is clear in these atrocities and Israeli's like this doctor who continue to so outspokenly voice these sentiments paint the very clear picture of the monsters they have become.
As previously mentioned, there is a name for that, it's the Nakba
I second calling this the Palestinian holocaust just to fuck with them zionists.
Well cool, but you can also just use the proper name, the Nakba
