Genocide denial is a master class in logical fallacies.

Here are 10 of the most common types used against those who speak out:

1. Ad Hominem Attack: “You’re an antisemite.”

2. Straw Man: “So you think Israelis should just roll over and die?”

3. Whataboutism: “What about Sudan? Congo? Iran?”

4. Red Herring: “Do you know what Hamas does to gay people?”

5. False Dilemma: “The alternative is genocide of the Jews.”

6. Special Pleading: “How could a people that suffered the Holocaust ever be perpetrators?”

7. Appeal to Authority: “Israel investigated itself and found no evidence of genocide.”

8. Argument from Repetition: “You have to prove intent.” (Repeated endlessly even after South Africa submitted extensive, publicly available evidence to the ICJ.)

9. Circular Reasoning: “Israel can’t be committing genocide; it’s a democracy, and democracies don’t commit genocide.”

10. Moral Inversion: “Do you know how offensive it is to accuse a historically victimized people of genocide?”

As Israel and its U.S. backers continue terrorizing Palestinians—while clearing rubble and obstructing accountability for their crimes—we will not unsee what we’ve seen.

We will not forget this.

We will not stop speaking out.

Free Palestine.
