Genocide and Suicide Terrorism - Part 1

Article 6 (a) Genocide by killing:

Elements
1. The perpetrator killed2 one or more persons.
2. Such person or persons belonged to a particular national, ethnical, racial or religious group.
3. The perpetrator intended to destroy, in whole or in part, that national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such.
4. The conduct took place in the context of a manifest pattern of similar conduct directed against that group or was conduct that could itself effect such destruction.

On 3 April 2002, about 1,000 Israeli troops entered the Jenin refugee camp on the West Bank, home to some 14,000 Palestinians. Supported by Apache attack helicopters and Caterpillar D9 armored bulldozers, the troops razed a section of the camp that harbored militants who had recently organized a string of devastating suicide missions and other attacks against Israeli civilians. At least 52 Palestinians were killed in Jenin, 22 of them civilians, along with 23 Israeli soldiers. By the time the dust settled on 11 April, more than a quarter of the camp’s residents were homeless.

Data were also collected on all 210 state-directed assassinations and 138 suicide bombings that took place in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza between 26 October 2000 (the date of the Second Intifada’s first suicide bombing) and 12 July 2005.

Note that although relatively indiscriminate state violence was more widespread in Gaza than in the West Bank, Israelis saw Gaza as less of a threat than the West Bank throughout the Second Intifada. That is because 109 suicide bombings originated in the West Bank compared to just 28 in Gaza (see Table 3).

Genocide and Suicide Terrorism - Part 2
Part 1: https://t.iss.one/IsraelWarBullshit/945

In Gaza, after the separation barrier was completed and the Second Intifada had begun, most militants were in fact compelled to turn away from suicide bombing and toward guerilla attacks and the launching of Qassam rockets and mortar shells at Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip and Israel proper.

No such launches were recorded in 2000, but 516 took place in 2001. Their number rose steadily for the next three years to 1,475 in 2004 and then tapered off somewhat to just over 1,000 in 2005 (Intelligence and Information Center 2006, 24; Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs 2007).

In the West Bank, the situation was different. The rate of killing of Palestinians by Israel was only about half as high as in Gaza. At the same time, the frequency of Palestinian deaths was more sensitive to the threat level than was the case in Gaza. The correlation between the monthly number of Palestinian deaths and the monthly number of suicide missions originating in the region was strong and in the direction that Marshall’s rational choice theory would lead one to expect.

Thus, when threat was high in the West Bank, the killing of Palestinians by the Israeli state rose. When threat was low, the killing of Palestinians dropped off.

Interestingly, frontier-like Gaza was less subject to assassinations than was the West Bank. Nearly twice as many assassinations took place in the West Bank (135) as in Gaza (72).


In addition, a chorus of human rights groups, media outlets, the United Nations, and European governments soon criticized Israeli state violence, calling for constraint and reminding Israel that state violence against civilians violates international human rights norms that have become deeply entrenched since World War II.
