As of 3 November, according to Ministry of Health data, 2326 women and 3760 children have been killed in the Gaza strip, representing 67% of all casualties, while thousands more have been injured. This means that 420 children are killed or injured every day, some of them only a few months old.
Doesn’t matter. The western world will keep relativising the deaths of these children. They will keep looking for excuses as to why it’s okay to murder this kids. It’s a “necessary evil”. If you’re from a non western country, maybe you should try and think about how this could be you. And one half of the world would simply excuse the murder of your family.
The United States is the biggest diplomatic loser in this war.
Gave Israel eveything it wanted but Israel ignores all it’s behind the scenes requests for a ceasefire.
It’s reputation in the Middle East is so trashed that close Arab allies can’t even be seen in public with their envoys.
Western diplomats have said that they have lost the global south. No one believes their claims about human rights and a rules based international order.
A complete destruction of United States influence in the middle east and heavy damage in developing countries.
Their top line numbers tend to be accurate. If you look at the 2014 Gaza War data, the Gaza health ministry said 2,310 killed (70% civilians), the UN said 2,251 (65% civilians) and Israel said 2,125 killed (36% civilian, 20% uncategorized males between 16 and 50, and 44% combatants).
Obviously, everyone labels “civilians” and “combatants” in their own way and for their own purposes. But the health ministry hasn’t historically just pulled numbers out of their ass.
which one? That we maybe should look into multiple independent sources, instead only in one provided by the Hamas, which I also did not call false? And to answer to your shitty accusation. there are multiple sources for the Holocaust so it’s pretty easy to verify that it has happend and was an atrocity.
I don’t particularly like Hamas, in fact I strongly dislike them, but you’re right. They simply have no need to lie about everything as the Israelis have a knack for actually doing the terrible things they’d otherwise have to fabricate.
Would they lie if the Israelis weren’t a bunch of genocidal shit heels? Probably not, because Hamas wouldn’t exist if not for the actions of the Israelis.
Perhaps not surprisingly, it is also this number - six million - that Holocaust deniers aim at when trying to discredit the essential nature of the Holocaust. Source
Many experts consider figures provided by the ministry reliable, given its access, sources and accuracy in past statements.
“Everyone uses the figures from the Gaza Health Ministry because those are generally proven to be reliable,” said Omar Shakir, Israel and Palestine director at Human Rights Watch. “In the times in which we have done our own verification of numbers for particular strikes, I’m not aware of any time which there’s been some major discrepancy.”
Shakir said Human Rights Watch would not use figures provided by parties with “a propensity to misrepresent information.”
Throughout four wars and numerous bloody skirmishes between Israel and Hamas, U.N. agencies have cited the Health Ministry’s death tolls in regular reports. The International Committee of the Red Cross and Palestinian Red Crescent also use the numbers.
In the aftermath of war, the U.N. humanitarian office has published final death tolls based on its own research into medical records.
In all cases the U.N.’s counts have largely been consistent with the Gaza Health Ministry’s, with small discrepancies.
— 2008 war: The ministry reported 1,440 Palestinians killed; the U.N. reported 1,385.
— 2014 war: The ministry reported 2,310 Palestinians killed; the U.N. reported 2,251.
— 2021 war: The ministry reported 260 Palestinians killed; the U.N. reported 256.
It’s interesting that you’ll take Israel’s word despite proof of regularly fabricating lies. But the health ministry under bombardment that is verified by the UN and multiple humanitarian NGOs is “the mouth of a terrorist group”.
Perhaps you’d do well to consider whether your cowardly attitude to human suffering is making you an insufferable person.
The Gaza ministry of health has met the highest standards of NGO and UN scrutiny. They even published proof of every single confirmed dead civilian a week ago when the death toll was at 8,000. There were 12 pages of names before the age of 1.
Usually the Gazan ministry of health, which is run by Hamas because they're the local government in Gaza. But, their numbers are highly accurate, as said by UNICEF.
