Step 1: label every Palestinian, as well as foreign aid workers in Palestine, as "Hamas"

Step 2: kill civilians indiscriminately (or even intentionally in many cases)

Step 3: survivors who lost family and friends are likelier to join Hamas, thus "proving" the claim in Step 1

Step 4: repeat until genocide accomplished

Fuck Israel.

If Israel would stop killing foreign journalists...

We wouldn't have to take Hamas' word on death numbers.

Until Israel stops, we don't have any options besides taking Hamas at their word.

Hamas’ numbers have, if anything, been extremely conservative. If they’re wrong it’s because they fall short of reality, not because they exaggerate it. Israel themselves used their counts. This bullshit has been disproved a dozen times over but it just will not die.

199 children were Hamas.

We've gone full circles from

"Oh please, won't someone think of the children?!?"

to

"Oh please, those dead kids were biased, can't trust 'em. Won't someone think of the shooter?!"

If Israel wasn't actively trying to starve all the civilians to death, including children, we might be able believe they weren't also trying to bomb them to death.

If the current Israeli government(+) wanted people to believe what they say instead of getting their jollies via military occupation and genocide they’d have ramped up humanitarian aid to Palestinians and taken every measure possible to protect them instead of, well, gestures broadly.

(+)Obviously the founding of Israel as a nation state and the history since has been horrific, point being made is largely rhetorical.

The president of Shopify joined in lol

62000 palestinians killed. That's 1% of the 6 million jews killed during the Shoah. The comparison stands, and Israel showed it does not deserve to exist as a country

Apparently Hamas is lead by 5 year old girls now?
