U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.) strongly rejected accusations that Israel is committing genocide in the Gaza Strip.

Kennedy argued that Israel’s actions are the exact opposite of what the genocide allegations suggest.

“If Israel wanted to commit genocide against the Palestinians, it could have done so in a minute. It’s exactly the opposite. The Palestinian population has grown enormously around Israel. The number of Christians in Gaza has declined by about 80% over the last 10 years. If you want to see real genocide taking place, it’s not in Israel. It’s happening in all the countries surrounding it.”
