Daily reminder that Hamas publishes all terrorist deaths as civilians, so the ratio is about as known as the inside of a black hole. Yes, Hamas recruits children as long as they’re able to hold a gun.
Got a source for that? All figures I’m pulling up actually show the civilian death toll from US bombing Japan to be significantly higher than Israel’s. Just looking at the bombing of Tokyo more civilians died in a single night than all of Gaza in the last 50 years. That’s not even counting the horrible death ratios from the two atomic bombs.
So you’re counting every island and military ship inhabited only by Japanese military in this. Of course that would skew the numbers. If you look more specifically at military actions done in Japanese populated areas (a statistic that actually matches the current war), you’re going to find some horrifying numbers.
So what’s the point you’re failing to make here? That Israel aren’t genocidal?
Let’s consult senior members of the Israeli government on that point, shall we?
Prime Minister Netanyahu

No irony, just misinformation in the form of a poorly done meme (you couldn’t even get the panel order correct). I expect nothing less from one of the top lemmy Hamas propagandists.
No I just see this person posting Hamas propaganda constantly on Lemmy and do not believe a single statement yet make. Their lies have been proven countless times already.
And no, official US and NATO investigations do not count as independent verification. They routinely use IDF as their sources for such claims without hesitation. To the point where even Biden parrots completely fabricated claims that even the IDF has to quickly walk back, such as the 40 beheaded babies.
The people of Gaza are literally being starved, dehydrated, and bombed to death along with any public infrastructure that could help. Why are we focusing on this instead of how we can get Israel to stop? They are the ones in power, that is the reality of an apartheid state holding a permanent occupation. Without any occupation there is no resistance to the occupation.

Calling for 1 side to stop does not end a conflict. Calling for Hamas to release the hostages and surrender would help this conflict end.
Calling terrorists resistance and destroying all meaning of the word apartheid does not help your cause either.

Hamas hasn’t been the one rejecting a ceasefire for hostage deal. But the irony of those two sentences right next to each other is pretty funny lol.

I’m going to be charitable and assume you don’t know the history of life under Israeli occupation nor how the apartheid in South Africa ended.
The resistance in South Africa was also labeled as terrorists, Should they have surrendered too? Would that have ended the apartheid?
Your links are super outdated. That ceasfire already happened, and Hamas didn’t get their wish to free thousands of terrorists for a few hostages.
You know what improves material conditions? Having water pipes in the ground and used for transporting water. You know what doesn’t? Ripping out water pipes and using them to make rockets that are launched at civilian population centers. That’s what terrorists do.
Also, don’t assume things. You’ll often find yourself wrong.
Ah yes, twisting my words and claiming I “run away” great tactics to prove your superiority.
Last I checked the words “some” and “all” do not mean the same thing. Do you want me to provide evidence from a dictionary or is that not biased enough towards Hamas for you?
So this suggests Hamas mostly took precaution not to kill children (these stats are even excluding friendly fire by the IDF). They did kill children, and that was certainly bad. But it did not seem to be an order from the top down nor their battle strategy because many Hamas fighters did not kill children.
You on the other hand are actually calling on the IDF to kill every Palestinian child because they are supposedly all Hamas.
You are the only one defending the killing of children.
You on the other hand are actually calling on the IDF to kill every Palestinian child because they are supposedly all Hamas.
Again with the lies. I never made such statement. Instead you rather twist every word into the most vile of things. You can’t defend your own opinions without such deception. It’s why I have no respect for someone like you that resorts to such pathetic tactics.
Every word you say is full of lies and twisted truths. That’s the definition of propaganda.
I went looking for receipts and found none - maybe you’d like to point to an example… or would that be too Hamas of me?
I’m not sure what you’re trying to prove here though - it’s clear Israel funded Hamas’s efforts to displace the secular moderates in the hopes they’d launch an attack like Oct 7th to create the pretext for the genocide they’re now committing. I’ll be happy to share quotes from senior Israeli officials saying as much - or is Netanyahu spreading Hamas propaganda too?
Ah great, another one that thinks they know everything after reading 2 AJ articles about the conflict. Don’t bother, I’ve already heard all the quotes hundreds of times. I just don’t reach such far fetched conclusions as you have.
You didn’t bring your receipts - here’s a few of mine… Feel free to call interpreting these straightforward declarations of genocidal intent conspiracist. The people you’re spouting propaganda about are killing more kids, committing more warcrimes, maintaining an apartheid state, and are committing a genocide to create a far-right wing, autocratic ethnostate, Rudolph Jitler.
On the funding
Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, (Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s) telling a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat.
The Israeli government gave me a budget, and the military government gives to the mosques.

Hey, guess what?
50-50, the extremely dubious current IDF claim of civilian casualty ratio, is still worse than the US carpet bombing Japan.
Got a source for that? All figures I’m pulling up actually show the civilian death toll from US bombing Japan to be significantly higher than Israel’s. Just looking at the bombing of Tokyo more civilians died in a single night than all of Gaza in the last 50 years. That’s not even counting the horrible death ratios from the two atomic bombs.
Ratio, not absolute numbers.
Times of Israel citing an IDF official as 2:1 civilians:combatants - bearing in mind any >15 year old male will be classed as a combatant too, even if they’re civilian.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_War - 1:2.5 civilians:combatants of Pacific theatre, if Wikipedia is enough for you.
So you’re counting every island and military ship inhabited only by Japanese military in this. Of course that would skew the numbers. If you look more specifically at military actions done in Japanese populated areas (a statistic that actually matches the current war), you’re going to find some horrifying numbers.
So you’re saying the civilian death toll is fake, but also justified?
Is there an atrocity denial handbook, or do y’all just come up with the same arguments organically?
No, that’s what you’re saying. I made no such statements.
Again, this isn’t a civilian death toll that Hamas publishes, it’s a death toll. It includes all terrorists killed as well.
So what’s the point you’re failing to make here? That Israel aren’t genocidal?

You do realize the irony of you posting this under this meme right
No irony, just misinformation in the form of a poorly done meme (you couldn’t even get the panel order correct). I expect nothing less from one of the top lemmy Hamas propagandists.
You routinely ignore any sources that contradict IDF propaganda or is critical of Israel and immediately discredit them as misinformation. Would you even believe reports made by Israeli Veterans themselves?
No I just see this person posting Hamas propaganda constantly on Lemmy and do not believe a single statement yet make. Their lies have been proven countless times already.
I guess you’d have to point out what misinformation you’re talking about.
When it comes to human shields, the only independent verification back in 2014 is of Weapons (not rockets) hidden at a vacant school, situated btwn 2 UNRWA schools housing displaced people, by a Palestinian armed group. The Guardian journalists had encountered a couple individuals in 2014 too. Yet none of those come remotely close to making hospitals and schools bombing targets. Even if all the IDF claims were true, that does not exempt those hospitals and schools as protected under international law.
And let’s just conveniently ignore how much the IDF uses human shields while we’re at it
And no, official US and NATO investigations do not count as independent verification. They routinely use IDF as their sources for such claims without hesitation. To the point where even Biden parrots completely fabricated claims that even the IDF has to quickly walk back, such as the 40 beheaded babies.

Bombing and worsening already terrible material conditions doesn’t solve terrorism, it’s the improvement of material conditions that make terrorism fade away
Your links are super outdated. That ceasfire already happened, and Hamas didn’t get their wish to free thousands of terrorists for a few hostages.
You know what improves material conditions? Having water pipes in the ground and used for transporting water. You know what doesn’t? Ripping out water pipes and using them to make rockets that are launched at civilian population centers. That’s what terrorists do.
Also, don’t assume things. You’ll often find yourself wrong.
Strange you just tend to run away whenever evidence is presented.
You’re the one here calling all women and children Hamas without evidence by the way.
Ah yes, twisting my words and claiming I “run away” great tactics to prove your superiority.
Last I checked the words “some” and “all” do not mean the same thing. Do you want me to provide evidence from a dictionary or is that not biased enough towards Hamas for you?
OK so let me get this straight:
I say Hamas killing children is bad, but in total only 36 out of the 1139 deaths (3%) were children.
Ten times lower than the 1/3 child demographic in israel.
So this suggests Hamas mostly took precaution not to kill children (these stats are even excluding friendly fire by the IDF). They did kill children, and that was certainly bad. But it did not seem to be an order from the top down nor their battle strategy because many Hamas fighters did not kill children.
You on the other hand are actually calling on the IDF to kill every Palestinian child because they are supposedly all Hamas.
You are the only one defending the killing of children.

The panel order being reversed was done on purpose…
Thank you for demonstrating that anything Israel doesn’t like is Hamas.
Nah, that person specifically posts Hamas propaganda constantly and fills lemmy with a bunch of easily proven lies.
