Yes.

Food and money was donated by people like the Native Americans, but this was all seized by the Brits.

During the famine, the Brits sent enough food to England to feed 18 million people, which means they increased it during starvation. That would suggest an attempt to kill off the Irish.

British landlords told the Irish that their debts would be eradicated if they left Ireland.

France and Germany also suffered from the blight, but they easily survived by eating the other food they had, when the Brits had taken all of te Irish's food.
