Israel's Conduct in Gaza Does Not Resemble Genocide

The headline and framing center a dismissive stance toward genocide allegations ('obviously absurd'), using charged language ('true believers') that delegitimizes opposing viewpoints rather than engaging substantively. While Reason positions itself as libertarian-skeptical, this piece adopts an establishment-protective posture toward Israel by leading with categorical rejection rather than examining evidence. The framing omits detailed engagement with specific allegations or international legal criteria.
