Genocide is Fintan Drury's highly-anticipated follow-up to the bestselling Catastrophe: Nakba II, extending his forensic chronicle of the genocide in Gaza into the second year of Israel's onslaught. Beginning with Donald Trump's return to power and culminating in the White House's bombastic claim of a historic 'peace deal', Drury exposes how Western governments, fully aware of Israel's methods, deepened their political, military, and moral investment in a project of ethnic cleansing.Opening amid the surreal theatre of Trump's Knesset address and the Sharm el-Sheikh Peace Summit, the book dissects the spectacle, the personalities, and the power relations that excluded the oppressed while rewarding the oppressor. With his standard meticulous research, Drury traces how bombardment, starvation, prison brutality, and territorial expansion were not aberrations but strategy, enabled by Western arms, finance, and diplomatic cover.He unpicks the Trump-Netanyahu alliance, the mythology of Iran, and the relentless colonisation of Gaza and the West Bank, showing how 'peace' was framed around Israel's entitlements alone. Urgent, unsettling, and essential, Genocide argues that without Western sponsorship, this catastrophe could neither have occurred nor continued - and that accountability can no longer be deferred.
