the scale is ramping up. 700 per day now. Its too much. The Israeli government is anti-semitic against the Palestinians.
For those who survive they will also face destroyed kidneys and traumatised minds.
I watched the Aljazeera correspondent Youmna walking through the bombed areas talking to the camera while clearly in fear that she would be killed at any moment.

“Israel claims Jews as its national asset, and it weaponises us, as Jews – both as bodies in the demographic battle vis-a-vis non-Jews and particularly Palestinians, and ideologically as born representatives of the Jewish state – [and] seeks to do that to Jews worldwide,” Ofir told Al Jazeera. “That claim, in turn, makes [us] the human shields of the state, as it assaults Palestinians under its settler-colonialist agenda, be it through ongoing ethnic cleansing, through siege or through seasonal massacres.”
Homage to those who stand for freedom.

Israel's genocide is too much.

For the past two years we watched as the world didn't report the genocide in Ethiopia with 200,000 mostly civilians killed. Because we were told that Russia is the most evil one because it killed, in two years, 10,000 Ukranian civilians.
But in 18 days, Israel has killed 6000 Palestinian civilians. It doesn't even change anything to say that Hamas killed a thousand Israeli civilians first. Note that Hamas has been declared a terrorist organisation for some decades now so Israel should have been up to the task. But shooting 36,000 civilians in the great march of return was their target practice.
In the end it didn't have to be this way.
Netanyahu is the greatest enemy of the Israeli people.

6,100, but still terrible and beyond disgusting (35,000 was the total number marching).

Ah yes the larger figure seems to be 28000 for all forms of injuries with your figure for shootings. All injuries likely means inhalataion injuries, tear gas cannister strikes,
Casualties from the ‘Great March of Return” demonstrations
Between 30 March 2018 and 22 March 2019, 195 Palestinians, including 41 children, were killed by Israeli forces in the “Great March of Return” demonstrations, including during the weekly protests near the perimeter fence, protests against the naval blockade at the beach, and the night activities near the perimeter fence. 28,939 Palestinians were injured, including 25 per cent wounded by live ammunition in these GMR demonstrations. There was one Israeli force fatality and six Israeli force injuries as a result of the demonstrations: outside the GMR demonstrations, one Israeli soldier was killed and another 50 Israelis (three soldiers and 47 civilians) were reported injured by Palestinian armed groups in separate incidents, including rockets fired at southern Israel. In the same period, another 76 Palestinian fatalities resulted from other circumstance, including airstrikes, tank shelling, the opening of fire in the Access Restricted Areas on land and at sea, incidents of attempting to infiltrate into Israel, incursions and land levelling activities.

He was shown crouching and touching the face of his 15-year-old son, Mahmoud, who wanted to be a journalist like his father.

Later footage showed him holding the shrouded body of his seven-year-old daughter, Sham, seeming to speak to her as he looked at her bloodied face after the attack on the Nuseirat refugee camp.

There's at least one legal opinion that Albanese, Wong et al have been discriminatory when it comes to supporting Israel's actions in Palestine.

Yes Section 80 of the Criminal Code 1995 also allows for (private) prosecution for incitement to genocide.

80.2D Advocating genocide

(1) A person commits an offence if:

(a) the person advocates genocide; and

(b) the person engages in that conduct reckless as to whether another person will engage in genocide.

Note: There is a defence in section 80.3 for acts done in good faith.

Penalty: Imprisonment for 7 years.
