In the equations of the Left,

Israel and the Jews = the West and the Global North = "power and privilege" = the oppressor = the source of the world's problems, the evil that must be brought down.

Hamas and everything anti-West = the Global South = the oppressed = the solution, the cannon fodder that will bring down the West.

Everything follows from this - Jewish elimination, white elimination, elimination of every category counted as "power and privilege".

Does elimination mean genocide? They've already given their answer regarding "white elimination": it mean eliminations as a role in society, as "privilege", "as a class", as a "mentality" -- and "don't be simplistic rightwing paranoids and accuse it of meaning what it says and scare people that we'll kill them all. We'll just eliminate their role in society and reeducate them". The way the Soviets eliminated the kulaks "as a class" -- killed maybe a third of them and exiled the rest to Siberia. And the way the Inquisition and Pobedonostsev said to eliminate the Jews: put enough pressure on them that a third will convert, a third will die, and the remaining third will leave.
