  • My understanding that 100% were killed extrajudicially. Only hope that when it comes to US the drones would carry Tasers.

  • and the highest heart rate belongs to the smallest mammal

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etruscan_shrew

    "The Etruscan shrew has a very fast heart beating rate, up to 1511 beats/min (25 beats/s) and a relatively large heart muscle mass, 1.2% of body weight."

    (to illustrate - machine guns typically do 600-900 rounds/min)

    I wonder whose muscle fiber is stronger per unit mass - the whale's or the shrew's...

  • As i said the key thing isn't how many, it is who, how and what for.

    Israel started the war in response to the genocide of Oct 7. So all the legitimate collateral victims and damage from Israel's actions here is responsibility of the perpetrators of Oct 7.

    You aren't calling for prosecution of the perpetrators of Oct 7. That is already shows your colors.

    Anyway, the number of killed you cite comes directly from Hamas (its Ministry of Health stated those numbers to UN). Hamas is a terrorist org, and can't be trusted at all.

    There is no evidence that Israel killed civilians in any meaningful numbers, and that the killings were criminal and not legitimate collateral.

    Now, there is a million of cell phones in Gaza. After several years of watching Ukraine war anybody knows the amount of cell footage to expect. Some Russian killings in Bucha were recorded by reconnaissance drone for example. Russian soldiers posted videos of them executing POWs, security cameras recorded Russian soldiers marauding and so forth. Where is pretty much no footage comes from Gaza. "Israel soldiers shoot at the crowd at food distribution center" and nobody recorded anything (especially giving that according to Hamas it happens regularly - and still no footage!)

    And on rare occasions when some footage comes out - the analysis in the example below shows that the basic laws of physics wouldn't let even 20 people to be killed when Hamas claimed 400-800 in that "bombing of hospital" (again, if you watch war footage, you'd know what gore of several people killed by explosion would look like, and no way the parking lot would look that way just the morning several hours later - where is all the blood for example? it is pretty obvious that the asphalt hadn't been washed by the time photo was made so blood should be there even if they picked up all the bodies and parts of it)

  • >There is not evidence about that 20-30k civilians dead. I could say it was 3 and I would have the same proof that you have.

    As i said you don't know what you're talking about. You seem to be just blabbering some gibberish. I'm not engaging with you anymore here.

    "The government of Iran's reformist President Masud Pezeshkian has published the names and national ID numbers of 2,985 individuals killed during recent nationwide protests."

  • >There is little evidence of what you say. ... but the danger of 'expansionism' is from Iran.

    if you aren't familiar with Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis - i highly recommend reading on it, even if just in Wikipedia.

    >How many people have to die in those USA wars? I mean, enough is enough.

    I think most important isn'h how many, the most important is who. Iran's regime has just indiscriminately killed 20-30K innocent civilians and uncountable many have been tortured. That is a crime against humanity. So, the top of Iran's regime and its IRGC has to be punished. I'm fine with that punishment being US and Israel's missiles.
