An Israeli airstrike hit a car in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, killing five people, including at least three workers with the charity World Central Kitchen, according to Gaza's health ministry.

I'm sure you like these titles. But if you read text that comes after them, you'll learn that your study analyzed data from from Oct 7 to Nov 10 2023. The full-scale invasion had started in 27 October 2023. This study is as irrelevant to this conflict as possible.

Invalidating this study would require more that your pointless comment. You are welcome to dispute the study, but provide a source for that.

And even ignoring this study we know their death count is extremely accurate based on past Israeli war crimes committed in 2008, 2012, 2014 and 2021 since the deaths were independently verified after the fact.

You are welcome to stay brainwashed by Israeli propaganda. But in case you want to educate yourself, some reading material:

I didn't try to invalidate the study. I said that it's irrelevant, because it covers what, 13 days of ~500? Geez, these people have the audacity to call others stupid and brainwashed.

I'm assuming you're a hasbarah troll being paid pennies to rile people up on the internet but if you aren't....

Have you seen the videos of children being massacred? The women being bombed? Children missing limbs or being decapitated?

The information is right in front of you, it isn't hard to find. Why disagree with the information stating 'israel' is committing a genocide, and bombing indiscriminately?

Hezbollah and Iran have acted according to international law, only targeting military outposts, yet one is seen as a bastion of freedom and democracy, while the others are seen as backwards terrorists.

Hamas even acted according to international law on October 7th, but we can have this discussion later once you truly want to deprogram yourself.
