Gaza is a place, not the name of a conflict
That’s not an accident. The major media organs have decided that the war on the Palestinians is “Israel - Hamas War”, while the war on Ukrainians is the “Russia - Ukraine War”. Why would you buy into the Israeli narrative in the first convention and not call the second the “Russia - Azov Battalion War” in the second?
I am not defending the AI’s response here
It is very reasonable to conclude that the AI is not to blame here. Its working from a heavily biased set of western news media as a data set, so of course its going to produce a bunch of IDF-approved responses.
Garbage in. Garbage out.
Because Ukraine has a single unified government excepting the occupied Donbas?
Calling it the Israel-Palestine war would be misleading because Israel hasn’t invaded the West Bank which has a separate/unrelated Palestine government.
To analogize oppositely, it would be real weird if China invaded Taiwan and people started calling it the Chinese civil war.
Ukraine has a single unified government
Ukraine had been in a state of civil war since 2014. That’s half the reason for the conflict. Donetsk separatists were governing the region adverse to the Ukrainian Feds for nearly a decade.
Calling it the Israel-Palestine war would be misleading because Israel hasn’t invaded the West Bank
Since Oct 7th, there have been repeated artillery bombardments of the West Bank by the IDF.

To analogize oppositely, it would be real weird if China invaded Taiwan and people started calling it the Chinese civil war.
Given their history, it would be more accurate to call it The Second Chinese Civil War.
