There’s no single authority or panel to determine what constitutes a genocide or who is responsible for it.
Activists use the word very freely, drawing on the fact many will be willing to apply it to continuous acts of depravity - and that it might help to stop it. And now more than ever are using the G-word to describe what Israel’s doing in Gaza.
But use it too freely and it devalues the meaning of a word that has to be reserved for the gravest crimes against humanity.
Israeli-born historian and former IDF soldier Omer Bartov is one of the world’s leading experts on genocide and he joins Piers Morgan to give his view.
Then, Piers is joined by Israeli-American journalist Emily Schrader, Palestinian-American journalist Omar Baddar and activist and commentator Shaiel Ben-Ephraim.
