    When I think of genocide, it comes to mind images of some evil dictator using poison gas in a population, chemical weapons, an atomic bomb, etc.

    That’s just lack of education on your part, though. Neither the Cambodian Genocide nor the Rwandan Genocide would be a genocide according to you, but in reality these were two of the worst genocides in the last 50 years.

    Come to think of it, neither would the Bosnian Genocide according to you, because it mainly targeted males for execution.

    then cry genocide

    The people who are “crying genocide” are those of us in the international community who know what a geenocide is, including experts in international law.
