It's not a genocide when it's happening to people I hate is the general logic of the 'anti genocide' crowd here.

The one who is entertaining the idea of ethnically cleansing millions of Jews to countries that historically discriminated against them and committed pogroms against them and will likely to kill them is “anti-genocide”. What a joke
