    There is nothing wrong with the numbers reported by Gaza. Everyone has gone through a lot of effort to prove that they are reliable, so that at the end of the day some regular jackoff from the internet can come here and say “the only report I see that uses that number is Hamas”

    LOL, seriously, just get over it. Just join the club we are in where we try to get over the fact that Israel has killed an unbelievable number of civilians by carpet-bombing it. That’s the real challenge… living in a world like this.

    Here’s a link from AP, with the latest death toll

    https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-news-11-21-2023-39f5ae0bdb4e32f0e69115aa43446132

    More than 12,700 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry in the West Bank. Officials there say another 4,000 are missing. Their counts do not differentiate between civilians and combatants. Israel says it has killed thousands of militants.

    Of course “Israel” would say it killed thousands of militants, because Israel does not differentiate either.

    These numbers have been vetted over and over again, and I’m afraid that your little internet opinion cannot change that.

      There is always value in pointing out that a source is a known propaganda source, especially in developing stories where jumping to conclusions is incredibly dangerous.

      Doubly so considering the latest reports are less than half that - between 50 and 70, with some missing under rubble.

        Yeah there is always value to that but I don’t think that’s why you do it.
