A panel of United Nations independent experts has accused Israel of engaging in a campaign of starvation and genocide in Gaza as the effects of the famine are being felt across Gaza. Palestinian physician and activist Mustafa Barghouti says “what we see today is a purposeful act of starvation” and that the real intention of the Israeli government has never changed. “Their main goal is the total ethnic cleansing of all of Gaza people and all of the Gaza Strip.”
They think that if there is no Palestine, there will be no Palestinians.
That tactic didn’t work out so well with the Kurds. Or the Tibetans. Or the Tuareg.
Or any of these other groups:

They don’t really need to exterminate the Palestinians. They just need to kill enough that they can colonize the rest of Palestine. By that metric, it worked out pretty well against those other groups.
Apart from the fact that many of those groups have been fighting guerilla wars for years.
