    The post title asks you to look at the “biggest bar,” which seems to imply that the biggest bars - children - must be targeted. OccamsTeapot population graph is important context because, as war-crimey as indiscriminantly bombing civilian populations is, intentionally targeting children feels so much like comic-book villany that people dismiss it as propaganda.

      Your biases, poor reasoning, &/or poor grammar are showing.

      “Biggest bar” = “highest proportion of casualties are children” (e.g. the data be like it do); NOT “IDF is targeting children”.

      Your false interpretation implies intent to target children specifically, but the correct interpretation ultimately implies indiscriminate murder, as any Palestinian civilians likelihood of being bombed by the IDF is almost the same as any “Hamas combatant” (e.g. genocide) — so much so that it just looks like their current population demographics.
