    Nyt and Guardian seem fine, (in)directly quoting the idf.

              Officially. In reality, the vast majority of the Gazan hospitals* from where they count the dead are controlled by the UN through UNRWA.

              *Of which there’s none fully functional, which is why we haven’t gotten up to date counts for at least a couple months. Which is 50% of the reason why the IDF specifically targets hospitals and healthcare workers, of course.

                    There was a very clear and simple point. I’m not sure how it’s possible, but the fact that you don’t think there was not just means you did, and continue to, miss it.

      The problem isn’t them quoting it. The problem is passing along the blatant misinformation as truth. Why are you using their words when it’s very clearly wrong?

        I’m reading this thread in awe, as I can’t see what this ‘blatant misinformation’ is that everyone sees so clearly

        Hezbollah planned a large rocket attack and Israel attacked them first… How is this disputed?

          The misinformation is that Israel is claiming they were forced to attack first due to Hezbollahs aggression. When in fact Israel is directly responsible for escalating this conflict for several months now, and Hezbollah has been showing a lot of restraint.

            Hezbollah is the one who started firing missiles into Israel because of the war in Gaza. They could you know just not attack Israel. Then nothing would happen.

              One look at your account and it’s clear you’re some kind of paid troll. 2 weeks old, 22 posts, 92 comments. A lot of it is pro-Israel and Zionism. Not even going to bother entertaining your comment.

                I wish I was paid.

                Someone with a different perspective than me must be a paid troll, is of course easier than actually engaging and learning something.

                  Then start applying buddy. You definitely got the engagement and looking the other way down. I don’t have a problem engaging in conversation. I have a problem when people try to deflect the issue at hand.

            Are you denying Hezbollah was planning, and executed, a large rocket strike?

                What would you do if you knew some group of religious nuts was going to fire a barrage of rockets at you?

                  Maybe not antagonize them for months by firing rockets at them?

                    You do realize that it was Hezbollah that started firing over the border back in October?
