LB recited the Hamas claim issued by its ministry of health that 35,000 people were killed in Gaza. Even Biden's dumb secretary of defense repeated this figure. (Quickly walked back by people in Dept of Defense) An analysis of the figures provided by Hamas shows that they are preposterous. For example: "
"Another red flag, raised by Salo Aizenberg and written about extensively, is that if 70% of the casualties are women and children and 25% of the population is adult male, then either Israel is not successfully eliminating Hamas fighters or adult male casualty counts are extremely low.
This by itself strongly suggests that the numbers are at a minimum grossly inaccurate and quite probably outright faked.
Finally, on Feb. 15, Hamas admitted to losing 6,000 of its fighters, which represents more than 20% of the total number of casualties reported.
Taken together, Hamas is reporting not only that 70% of casualties are women and children but also that 20% are fighters.
This is not possible unless Israel is somehow not killing noncombatant men, or else Hamas is claiming that almost all the men in Gaza are Hamas fighters." Other obvious signs of the fraud are cited in the article. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opin...bout-the-number-of-deaths-in-gaza/ar-BB1kblew
I would also note that during the Vietnam war the American military did the same thing and just made up numbers of North Vietnamese soldiers killed as the US was making no progress during the war.
