It’s so improbable that they would be able to identify 7,000 people who have died in the last 2 weeks, with scarce resources and in an active war zone. Remember how long it took to identify how many people died in the Maui fires and how much the numbers changed in terms of how many people died? |
Hello Main Character Syndrome sufferer, please seek help. Not everything is, or has to be about you. |
I explicitly talked about silence from HRW about the evidence provided by Israel to journalists on Monday 10/23 of human rights atrocities. The link you posted pre-dates the evidence session provided by Israel. You must be deliberately misreading what I wrote, specifically to hide the fact that HRW has been silent about the presentation of evidence gathered. There has not been anything written about the disclosures made to journalists, although they were extensive and detailed. Also, even looking at the link you provided — which doesn’t address my initial point whatsoever — it talks about validating four videos. Four. That’s it. We know there are hundreds of videos (HRW even says as much) but they have only validated four of them. Are you taking the position that is a reasonable position for an organization focused on human rights for all (at least in theory) to take? |
No, it's an example of how awful Biden has been during these few weeks. When asked about the number of deaths, he could have said some platitudes about the loss of innocents in war without degrading the ministry and the deaths of the people in Gaza. In past conflicts, the numbers the ministry provided were very close, within a few %, of numbers compiled later by UN and even the Israeli government. It just makes Biden look callous to the losses of innocent lives in Gaza. Here's a good article by the AP about it: https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-gaza-health-ministry-health-death-toll-59470820308b31f1faf73c703400b033 |
I am going to assume that you condone it then |
I’m more outraged that Palestinian families are being stabbed to death in the United States because they’re Palestinian. This month, I’ve read a lot of rhetoric about how terrifying it is to be a Jewish student in college and seeing protests for Palestinians rights. I’ve seen countless examples of “horrible antisemitism” that includes anything from ripping a poster, stepping on a flag or hanging out in a library to avoid a protest. Yet, the only actual student who was physically attacked this month was a Palestinian kindergartener in Chicago who was stabbed to death to preemptively protect Jews from antisemitism. His mom was brutally stabbed as well. Please be cognizant of your rhetoric. Some people take you more seriously than you take yourself. A 6 year old was brutally stabbed to death in the United States. His mom barely survived the attack. It’s a scary time to be a Palestinian child, no matter what continent you live on. |
Wow the audacity of you all to doubt the number of Palestinians dead and to cast doubt on the figures. You will do or say anything to justify killing Palestinians. Biden is a fool and he has a big role to play in what is happening in Gaza. He is so senile he can’t even pronounce his words properly. At this point, he is just being told what to say verbatim and he says it while squinting his eyes. What an embarrassment. |
Go find a pro-Palestine rally. |
Even nuns were killed in the Holocaust if they had Jewish ancestry! |
Of course. Because it was never about religion. It was about ethnicity. It was about the notion that Jews are not white. |
It’s persecuted, not prosecuted. |
|
Well, you must know more than the Palestinians in Gaza because you seem to have a social media degree in baloney and hogwash. |
Sort of like Anne Frank "hanging out" in an attic? They were hiding in there and an angry mob was trying to break down the door. They had to be escorted out underground. And no, that doesn't mean that I think what they went through is worse than being stabbed. Of course not. But Jews have genuine fear for their lives. There have been cases of armed intruders breaking into Jewish homes. Those families are lucky they weren't stabbed. I mean, I guess we can just wait a few days for a Jew to actually get stabbed, if that will help. |
DP. PP above is exactly right: no one has any idea whatsoever how many Palestinians have been killed. Plus, Hamas is not exactly...credible? Sane? Remember that they also hate Rotarians and Lions Clubs, for reasons that I can't quite fathom. So major points for Biden here--he's right, just as he was on Ukraine. |
