What was the Irish genocide?

Some Irish Republicans refer to the Irish Potato Famine (An Gorta Mór) of the 1840s as the 'Irish Genocide' due to the perceived failure on the part of the British government to effectively give aid to the starving populations in the west of Ireland. Although most historians agree that to label the famine as a 'genocide' is inaccurate due to there being no deliberate intent by the British to eliminate the people of Ireland, it should also be noted that the government, under Charles Trevelyan were responsible for exporting large amounts of food that could have helped to quell the famine.
