    There is a significant difference in terms of the amount of deaths. A focus on one over the other is very understandable, and using it as a reason for an accusation of Nazism is reductive at best.

    Recent conflict

    Palestinian Israeli
    Deaths 39,677* 1,478

    *Although the Gaza Health Ministry numbers do not distinguish deaths among combatants and noncombatants, 68.1% (27,020) of casualties were children, women, or elders and therefore likely non-combatants according to The Lancet.

      The Gaza Health Ministry is literally run by Hamas.

      And the UNOCHA is straight up lying. They claim only 23 Israeli fatalities in 2023 when the Oct 7th massacre alone killed 1,139 people, 695 of whom were Israeli Citizens (Not just Jews). This is not counting any of the attacks before or after Oct 7th, this is just the Oct 7th massacre alone.

      Hopefully you can see that this is just propaganda, right?

        I am aware of that, but HRW confirmed these numbers and so did many other organizations.

        I’m not sure how you missed it, but the source clearly states that casualties of the ongoing conflict are not included because they’re not yet independently verified. That is also why I did not include those numbers myself. Excerpt:

        Casualties in the context of the ongoing hostilities in the Gaza Strip and Israel, which started on 7 October 2023, will only be added to this page once these incidents have been independently verified. Until then, reported figures on those are included in our Flash Updates and Snapshots. By contrast, data on casualties in the West Bank and Israel in other contexts is updated regularly beyond 7 October 2023.

        Hopefully you can see that this is just propaganda, right?

        I hope you realize it doesn’t just come from one side
