I am somewhat late, but you're completely wrong. To engage in metaphors, cutting someone is a core component of surgery. This does not make surgery, even if failed and lethal, murder. To engage your point, genocide does not require displacement, hence displacement cannot be a core component of genocide. Genocide is the eradication of a people. Moving a people does not eradicate them. There is no reason to conflate the two. (There is, but it's mostly for political reasons).
