politicide
n.— «The insistence by the guerrillas that they are struggling to destroy the Zionist state and the Zionist-structured society that generates such as state is turned by Harkabi into a concept of “politicide” (an impressive-sounding concept applicable to the aims of any valid liberation movement, e.g. against Rhodesia and South Africa).» —“Fedayeen Through Israeli Eyes” by S. Abdullah Schleifer Journal of Palestine Studies Winter, 1972. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
