............ Than it isn't genocide. Genocide as defined is the deliberate KILLING of a specific group.. Find a different word to use for it, because it isn't genocide.

Unless there is diliberate killing of people, it is not genocide.

I suggest you read what "genocide" is before making such an idiotic thread.

Why are you guys making me play "devil's advocate" for an idea that I came across on YouTube just this morning?
:-P
According to the Wikipedia entry on genocide, even the guy who coined the term, Raphael Lemkin, specifically stated that genocide didn't necessarily entail killing ...
Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actions aiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves. The objectives of such a plan would be the disintegration of the political and social institutions, of culture, language, national feelings, religion, and the economic existence of national groups, and the destruction of the personal security, liberty, health, dignity, and even the lives of the individuals belonging to such groups.
