    I don’t see a problem here. I trust their numbers. They have released lists with all the people killed by Israel before and parts of those lists were confirmed by relatives living abroad. “Hamas-run X,Y,Z” is just a cheap way of trying to delegitimize palestinian deaths.

      Like the 500 dead in the self inflicted hospital parking lot? Come on.

      Hamas is a motivated and non-credible source for details.

        Hamas has launched over 35 THOUSAND rockets over the years, which has barely killed 69 people, yet somehow now all of the sudden such a rocket fails and lands on a hospital and HUNDREDS die? Sure, so be it, but why would I even believe the IDF on this one? They haven’t even provided any kind of proof. They provided a video which many organizations have debunked as being completely unrelated to the hospital rocket. Hell, even the New York Times debunked that video, and they’re definitely west aligned.

            How many innocent Palestinians do you think have died since the 7th of October in general?

              Who knows? I sure don’t. But I don’t believe 500 people died in a parking lot and I don’t take numbers from a motivated party at face value.

                  Y’all are bonkers if you equivocate the US and hamas. Legit they kidnapped, raped, murdered, than paraded the dead body of a young woman through the streets. This is the same group y’all go to for info?? Nuts man….

                    Do you have any idea about the US’s history? Did you forget their lie about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq to invade them, and killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians? This is just one lie we’re talking about.

                    The US has committed several war crimes, and killed millions of innocent civilians, they have killed waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Hamas killed and will ever kill.

                    And the IDF and the US have lied countless times before. I’m not american, nor israeli, nor an arab. I don’t need to pick a side for info here. All three (US, IDF, Hamas) have lied countless times before. Anyway, last time I checked the US has caused hundreds of thousands of innocent deaths by using bullshit reasons such as “WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION”, yet you tell me I should trust them more than some terrorists that killed 1000 times less people. I don’t trust any of y’all.

                    If you’re american, I want you to know that your country shouldn’t be trusted at all with any kind of information. Your regime has caused countless deaths around the world. It has helped fascist dictators rise to power. Dictators that ended up killing hundreds of thousands of innocents. You don’t have to take this from me. Take it from your very own government. All of this is declassified information. https://web.archive.org/web/20090911173014/http://foia.state.gov/Reports/ChurchReport.asp

                    So again, get off your high horse here. Hamas is a shit terrorist organization, I won’t deny that. But I sure as hell am not dumb enough to believe your government on absolutely anything. Nor the IDF which has killed countless innocents before October 7th alone.

            How to be correct while being wrong folks…

            It is a made up number, by western media not Hamas.

        Hamas never made that claim.

        It was a doctor being interviewed by al-jazeera. Even then it was a mis-translation of what he said that western media just ran with and never fact checked.

        Please stop spreading misinformation to serve as a way to delegitimize one side.
        There are plenty of REAL facts you can use.

            I’ll repeat it here since you seem like you missed reading it.

            It was a doctor being interviewed by al-jazeera. Even then it was a mis-translation of what he said that western media just ran with and never fact checked.

            Then like a dipshit you post me a link to a story by a western media outlet…

            seriously…

            A journalist for the Atlantic, New York magazine, Wired, and other outlets did a write up about it.

            https://www.silentlunch.net/p/did-the-entire-media-industry-misquote

            You can literally watch the video and translate it online.

              Broski- you are trusting one guy over a credible news organization. And you cite “silent lunch”.

              Isnt this scraping the bottom?? Do you have any credible sources?

                Please explain what you think the following means? “A journalist for the Atlantic, New York magazine, Wired, and other outlets”

                Never heard of substack either apparently. /smh

                Broski- If you were SO sure it was bs why didn’t you go to the video from al-jazeera and run his interview through a translator? You can do this all yourself, DON’T take my word or the word of the journalist reporting it…
                do it for yourself before you look like more of a dumbass.

                We all know you won’t because it goes against your narrative and you would rather believe a lie that reaffirms your biases and bigotry.

                  Having read the supplied article, the author has no information except that kills might be mistranslated. Not to get into the weeds, but it doesn’t dispute the source, nor does it offer more credible information.

                  And as a rule of thumb- a single dude publishing a substack doesn’t deserve more credibility than a long time news source. Not that the article supplies and information that might be argued- the whole point is that he didn’t get any information.

        Theres still zero hard evidence to support it was Islamic Jihad and not the IDF, but keep propagandizing. It doesnt matter how often israel lies you will take it at face value
