    The numbers supplied by Hamas have been pretty accurate in the past, according to multiple UN investigations. There’s simply no reason for them to exaggerate the numbers, since they are already atrocious enough.

    BTW: back in December, the IDF itself released reports saying that about two thirds of the dead are civilians/not Hamas.

    You can spin it like you want, what Israel is doing over there is not okay. Simple as that.

      Even if true (citation needed, not that I’d trust the defunct UN anyway with China & Russia sitting on the table), that would still not give credibility to hamas or the narrative the meme tries to push.

          lol, no. I’m literally iterating on the point I’m trying to make here. You’re just proving my initial point of eating up hamas propaganda.

            Nope.

            You first doubted Hamas, when I mentioned, that the UN agreed generally, you say, the UN is also not a good source, without any proof of that.

            The fact about the IDF was completely dropped by you, because it doesn’t fit your bill.

            BTW: do you have any Israeli sources? If Israel would doubt Hamas’ numbers, they might issue their own reports. But they don’t. Well that’s weird, isn’t it? But the IDF probably is also just an anti Israel agent.

              So me replying to your point about the UN is somehow moving the goalpost? That would mean that you moved the goalpost. lol And Russia & China being on it is proof enough, it made the UN defunct since forever. But I guess hamas sympathizers would not see it that way since you’re likely think positively of those countries too.

                So, you think that the United Nations should not include two of the largest and most powerful nations in the world?
