    I’m glad you read it in part, any is better than nothing. I think a good example in reply to “they either all or vast majority of them, reside within the country trying to erase the culture or group. AFAIK, that’s not the case for these immigrants,” not all Jews were in Germany, disabled people as well, but those were still genocides.

    From the text before the pdf:

    The statute has four special intent requirements: intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group, as such.

    So it’s targeted violence on people based on those properties. That would also mean the inverse, that is “the intent to destroy, in whole or part, all that do not fall under a specific nationality, ethnic, racial or religious group.” It’s a bunch of separate genocides grouped under one label.

      That’s true. And it’s not like we don’t have a lot of immigrants.

      Not sure we clear the intent to destroy bar though. It goes back to what I said before. I don’t see the destroy part being systematic, though it does happen. They just don’t care what happens. That could change though.
