Are Gaza's Casualty Numbers Accurate?

 

Time: Biden Cast Doubt on Gaza’s Death Toll. Palestinian Officials Responded With 6,747 Names 

In the past three weeks, more than 1,400 people in Israel and 7,000 Palestinians have been killed amid fighting between Israel and Hamas. That is, if you believe the casualty figures coming out of the region. This week, U.S. President Joe Biden suggested that the Palestinian death toll in Gaza, which has been under heavy bombardment by Israel following Hamas’ Oct. 7 massacre, is not to be trusted. 

“I’m sure innocents have been killed, and it’s a price of waging a war,” Biden said at a press conference on Wednesday. “But I have no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using.” The President didn’t offer further evidence for his skepticism of the Palestinian health ministry's data, which the U.S. State Department has cited both internally and publicly, in the latter case as recently as March. (When asked to provide evidence to support Biden's statement, the White House referred TIME to comments made by U.S. National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby, who on Thursday reiterated the President’s assertion that the death toll cannot be taken “at face value” because the “Gaza Ministry of Health is just a front for Hamas.”)

The Palestinians are completely untrustworthy, completely dishonest. They are murderers and terrorists, or at the least, supporters of murderers and terrorists. I wouldn't trust their numbers either.

Yes and the Jews and the US are saints. Just because they lie all the time does not mean we should not believe them now.

I never feared the Jews while traveling by air. The PLO and Muslims yes, but not the Jews.

If I were a Jew back in that time, I would have bombed the hotel too. Where you going to go now dipshit.

Thank you.

You just proved my point. The jews are just as blood thirsty as the Arabs with no thought of human life or dignity. The only reason they are
not acting like savages, is that they are now on top.

Now, would you like to also explain jewish conduct concerning the Sabra, Lebanon camps in the 1980s? That was another truly civilized and humanitarian mission of the Israelis.

It's going to be incredibly difficult to get accurate numbers when whole blocks of flats are being destroyed burying anyone in and around. The sheer quantity of ordinance being dropped further complicates it. I'm sure neither side really knows and that's really troubling with 1000s of bombs being dropped on dense urban areas in a state of chaos.

You can tell a war has struck a nerve when people are arguing in the comments. Newsflash nobody cares.This isn't changing anything except proving that some people are too busy with nonissues.If it hits the fan no one can do anything about it. And also all of you will grow old and die one day. Getting this angry will only hasten the inevitable.

Pay no attention to 631. He has the morals of a dead goat

Now to answer your questions.


if something is legal does that make it right and ethical? No of course not.
examples....

Is it ethical to throw jews in an oven, Of course not. Nor to massacre Indians at wounded knee. But this was done under governmental authority and law.

Therefore, is killing Indians and stealing their land both ethical and legal? Absolutely not.

When wondering about ethics use the cardnial rule.

The laws of men are not to be trusted.

So what needs to be done?

Follow the golden rule.

Do unto others as you would have done unto you.

Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy self.

When considering right action vs wrong action. This is the gold standard.

The Jews don't go around killing people at peace parties, capturing women, children anyone not even Jewish a German women stripped naked raped, spat at and killed in Gaza. Jews don't go around and chop babies heads at. Palestinians had all the chance for peace. But no Hamass makes war and now you are getting your throat punched, and your teeth kicked in you cry wolf.

You do not know what the jews do. All you know is what they feed you on the boob tube.

No but they do bury you alive under tons of rubbled concrete when your only sin was to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

How about those dancing Israelis by the way?

Nice gesture to give us prior warning.

This war is not ours, but it is going to be, and that is just the way they want it.

there are no good guys or bad guys in war. there is only the right side against the right side.

in the case of Hamas vrs. Israelis, the two cannot exist occupying the same space. It is time for one side to win and clear the space of the other. May the best "right side" win.

Be carful what you wish for.

It is time for one side to win and clear the space of the other. May the best "right side" win. Maybe it is time these nutcases get a new philosophy and a new disposition

Or maybe we should give peace a chance and just nuke the crap out of that whole area and solve the problem for good.

So after 4000 years of civilization it comes down to might makes right? If that is so, Let's just bring back the Roman Empire. and next time just let the Rwandans wipe themselves out.

That is not what I am saying at all however that tends to be the way things are. What I am saying is, there are millions of islamiacs who are collectively, one mind on the Jewish people and the state of Israel. God is on their side so to speak. They are fervent because they think they are right. They have sacred scriptures that guide them and history. Of course you have millions of Jews and Christians who think, say and believe with fervent emotion the same thing about the right of Jews and state of Israel to exist. The two beliefs cannot coexist in the same place. In time, one of them is gonna have to leave, change or die. The term "right side" is used to describe this dichotomy.

So another comment erased here. You cannot handle the truth.

Vul. Zhovtnevaroad traffic is interesting. How much traffic does it carry? How many truckloads of supplies do the russians in Kozachi Laheri need everyday in food, fuel and ammo?

Might as well not attack them. Let them age and die on the vine. Very good year.

goggle mandate for Hamas: destruction of Israel and its elimination.
now google what Palestininians kids are taught in schools in Gaza.

Now look at how right wing in Israel has encroached upon the West Bank.

Now note that Palestinians want all of the land to be theirs and so too Israel hard right wants all of the land to be theirs.

In the earlier wars against Israel, 5-6 arab nations sent their armies. Now, Egypt and the others will not. That leaves terror outfits fronting for Iram to attack Israel. When the nation-sent armies quit, that left Palestinians stranded without a place of their own. Now they are claiming--at least under Hamas--ALL of Israel as their homeland; so too, the right wing in Israel expanding into West Bank and claiming Gaza and West Bank as biblical Israel that they want to be restored. Two visions and they clash with each other. How to resolve this?

I am going to throw you a bone. Yes, that has to stop and it will be stopped. There was a Florida University study on children from a few months ago. It did not mention, gay, LGBT, trans or anything. I believe the topics are connected.
