Gaza Death Toll Denial Debunked

  Dude just sits there for 45 minutes making general comparisons and leaping to his own conclusions. Not a serious video.

  Like because one other war has fewer civilian casualties, Israel is therefore targeting civilians in purpose. That conclusion doesn’t follow.

  Dude doesn’t even mention martyrdom culture or Hamas doing things like spreading misinfo that the evacuation warnings, phone calls, and texts from the IDF were hoaxes. Makes no mention of why the civilian casualties are so much higher in Gaza as opposed to other conflicts.

  Those other conflicts didn’t have Hamas building hundreds of miles of tunnels under every population center, didn’t have Hamas encouraging families to live above the tunnels to protect them. That’s why the civilian death toll in Gaza is so high.

    There’s dozens of genocidal statements by israelis government knesset members and yet you have the audacity to blame all the civilians dead on Hamas only. Do you know that Russia use the same human shield excuse to target civilians?

      Russia says that the Ukrainians dug 500 miles of tunnels in an area only 25 mi wide and use them for decades to launch terrorist attacks against Russia?

      I haven’t heard that claim one time. I don’t think it’s true either.

  To debunk denialism of the Gaza death toll, all you need to do is point out that when we get them, the IDF casualty estimates very closely track with Gaza Health Ministry estimates. Since both of the opposing parties roughly agree on the death toll, it is likely a fairly accurate figure.

    Israel are always saying that Hamas numbers are fake. Due to the collapse of the health system it’s impossible to have accurate numbers

      Official source? I haven’t checked in a long time, but it’s been awhile since I’ve seen any official source call the Health Ministry numbers into question.
