Don't forget that 30000 terrorists have been killed and this total also includes everyone that has died of natural causes. Check out Robert Spencer, an expert in urban warfare. No-one has had such low civilian to terrorist ratios as Israel has had. Don't forget also HAMAS hides underground, doesn't wear uniforms and uses civilians as human shields. Many of HAMAS and other terrorist rockets have fallen short and killed many Palestinians, like when the BBC and other news agencies blamed Israel for killing 500 people in a strike on a hospital, and it really hit the carpark next to the hospital and only about 10 people died and it was fired by Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group. Normal rates of combatants to civilians in normal urban warfare are around 9 to 1 so it is laughable to say they were committing genocide. Israel dropped millions of leaflets make millions of phone calls, text messages dropping maps of safe passages for Palestinians to leave when Israel needed to hit HAMAS infrastructure. Name me any other military that has done that.. none. If Israel wanted to commit genocide they could have killed 2.1 million in an afternoon. Israel coordinated with international organizations like the World Health Organization and UNICEF to facilitate localized "humanitarian pauses" in Gaza, allowing health workers to administer over a million polio vaccine doses to Palestinian children following the territory's first polio case in 25 years. [1, 2, 3] Coordination and Rollout Details Agreement: Israel's military coordination agency (COGAT) agreed to specific daily regional pauses in fighting Scope: Multiple vaccination rounds targeted children under the age of 10 across the northern, central, and southern areas of the Gaza Strip. Delivery: Hundreds of thousands of vaccine doses and medical supplies entered through crossings like Kerem Shalom with the assistance of international aid agencies. Aug 28, 2568 BE — Polio, Gaza, and the Genocide Accusation. Israel's work with the WHO last year to get over a million Gazan children vaccinated against polio.. Sinwar was willing to accept the total destruction of the Gaza Strip to achieve his messianic vision and Hamas's political objectives but went ahead of the 7th October attack. He believed the more Palestinians that died, the more the world would turn against Israel, as HAMAS objective according to their charter was to wipe Israel of the face of the world by all means necessary. You might hate Israel and Jews as you believe the propaganda of 2 billion Muslims living in over 50 Muslim countries and most leftists narrative, plus the mainstream media and most world leaders against 9 million (15 million Jews in total in the world) Jews in Israelis, 2 million of Israelis are Arabs, plus Christians , Druze and many other minorities in 1 Jewish majority country but at least get the true facts. Hamas claims ~72,000 deaths in Gaza. Of those, roughly 30,000 were terrorists, and the total includes natural deaths. Urban warfare expert John Spencer notes Israel has achieved far lower civilian-to-combatant ratios approx 1:1 than the typical 1:9 in urban fighting. Hamas hides in tunnels, wears no uniforms, and uses civilians as shields. Many of its own rockets have killed Palestinians — including the “hospital strike” initially blamed on Israel by the BBC and others, which was actually a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that hit a car park and killed about ten people. Israel has dropped millions of leaflets, made millions of calls and texts, and issued maps of safe routes before strikes. No other military matches this. If genocide were the goal, Gaza’s 2.1 million people could have been wiped out in an afternoon. Israel also coordinated with the WHO and UNICEF for humanitarian pauses so over a million polio vaccines could reach Gazan children — the first cases in 25 years. Yahya Sinwar was willing to see Gaza destroyed to advance Hamas’s goal of eliminating Israel, calculating that higher Palestinian deaths would turn the world against the Jewish state. You can reject Israel, but the facts remain: a country of 9 million (including 2 million Arab citizens plus other minorities) facing a movement whose charter calls for its destruction.
