I think you are right. Those numbers appear to be bogus. I guess the PR people from Hamas did not think it through.
Unsurprisingly I find it easy to accept that a terrorist group that attacked Israelis is now faking the numbers to make it appear that they are the victims.
I don't know either, I guess there are lots still under rubble and a lack of official body counters left who are prepared to risk counting.
Roughly, what do you think the numbers are?
What is the number of people slaughtered by the IDF that would make you feel warm and fuzzy six months on?
By rescuing 3 hostages, mistakingly killing 3 others do you think the IDF have been justified in murdering 13,000 children?
What is the answer? How do stop Hamas from doing this again if you just sit back and say 'nah, it's okay, you can kidnap and kill our children'?
I think in the past Israel have tolerated terrorists hiding within the Palestinians. How much of that do you take before you fight back? If you don't what is the answer?
LOLS
I'm not falling for that old chestnut: Evadeing answering a bunch of difficult questions by asking me to answer your own set of random and idiotic questions.
No, fair's fair. Youngbreezy posted an article suggesting that the numbers provided for the number of Palestinians killed is too simple, and thus likely to be made up. If you had read it, you would understand that the 13000 children killed number is most likely made up. By coming back to the 13000 children statement, suggests you didn't bother reading it.
Now, if you would argue that a group intent on painting Israel in a bad light, after they themselves starting the attacks, may provide misleading numbers to make themselves look better and Israel bad.
So, my questions still stand. If you think it is a genocide, how are you sure of the numbers to make it a genocide?
Then, what did you expect Israel to do when its own young people were kidnapped, raped, and murdered? Tell them it is fine and accept it?
I can understand why you would be against Israel killing so many people, but to ignore the suggestion that its not what the numbers really are is just pretending to understand the situation and sticking to the side you have already chosen.
Clearly this is a really difficult situation. To just say 'Israel should stop it' is just dumb and has no basis in reality.

Look at the videos available online of the destruction of Gaza City ffs.
Anyone who an ounce of commonsense can see the 30 K number of deaths is grossly underestimated.
A single 20 floor apartment complex can house over a thousand people alone i would think, especially with the poverty situation over there its likely you will have many people staying in each apartment.
Around half the population in the Gaza Strip are under 20 I've read.

Hey there FormulaNumbers
As you are aware it has been widely reported that at least 30,000 people have been killed by the IDF including 13,000 children in Gaza. I have no reason to dispute these figures and stand by the widespread and growing belief that this is genocide and crime against humanity.
The numbers are backed up in an article recently published in Time Magazine, which examined this very question.
The article references the propaganda reported in Tablet (conservative online magazine focused on Jewish news and culture) and details two different studdies using different methodologies to collect the estimated numbers of dead Gazans
The Science Is Clear. Over 30,000 People Have Died in Gaza: time.com/6909636/gaza-death-toll/
Below is an excerptSelect to expand quoteActually, the numbers are likely conservative. The science is extremely clear.
In December, the medical journal The Lancet, published two critiques of the death surveillance process done by extremely experienced scholars at Johns Hopkins and The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Both concluded that the Gazan numbers were plausible and credible, albeit by somewhat different techniques and logic.
Now that you have some more science behind the numbers you disputed of the genocide taking place in Gaza and as fair's fair, my question to you still stands?Select to expand quoteFormulaNumber

Never again you say.
If Israel put down there arms an annihilation of the Jews is exactly what will happen again but don't believe me read the below promise from Hamas
Hamas member, Ghazi Hamad on October 24, 2023: "Israel is a country that has no place on our land [.] because it constitutes a security, military, and political catastrophe to the Arab and Islamic nation." (October 24, 2023, LBC TV (Lebanon)). He also vowed to repeat the October 7 attacks "time and again until Israel is annihilated," and expressing a desire to "sacrifice martyrs" (referring to Gazan civilians) for Hamas' ideological aim of destroying Israel.
I posted it again because you conveniently ignored it last time.
btw the way did you read the bit about Hamas expressing a desire to "sacrifice martyrs" . Hamas brought this disaster upon Gaza on purpose, even when they openly state a desire to see their own people killed you just ignore it.
I think you want Israel gone, that's the only conclusion that can be drawn from demanding Israel cease defending themselves against an enemy that has vowed to destroy them.

Why do you insist Israelis stop defending themselves, Hamas have promised not to stop. Its that simple HAMAS WILL NOT STOP, that I understand. Hamas made that clear
therefore they must be stopped, in the meantime Hamas are willing to sacrifice as many Martyrs as possible but using them as shields. Why don't you understand that

I found the last paragraph in the time article poignant, and on point to what you have posted. What you are saying is correct.Select to expand quoteThere are certain building blocks of society that require agreement for us to work well collectively. Society is weaker and discourse less productive if we cannot agree on at least a few basic things. In the case of Gaza, acknowledging that there was an appalling and extremely deadly attack on October 7th, and that over 30,000 Gazans have died since, mostly women and children, seems like the most basic of cornerstones of reality on which to move toward constructive discussion and eventual resolution.
time.com/6909636/gaza-death-toll/
There's a parallel of misunderstanding between this and the Ukraine situation. With only a handful of Ukrainians killed, people were calling it a war. With only 30,000 or so Gazans killed people are calling it a genocide. It's been 6 months already. Doesn't Israel have the capacity to annihilate Palestine?
Edit: if you want to end the conflict, I've got Covid. I can go over and spread it and everyone will die.

Never would have thought I would see you cite CNN as a reliable source. I guess it suits you this time.theDoctor said..
the only people who believe anything israel says
also believe electric vehicles will save the planet
and the vaccine is safe and effective
Israel said Hamas attacked them on Oct 7th, you don't believe that happe.ned?
your probably alongside Japie in thinking the holocaust was a hoax, which btw is on the same conspiritard level as a flat earth
You are a funny little peanut. I quoted CNN after having read the article in Haaretz if only to demonstrate that even CNN had picked up on it.
The hoax comment demonstrates precisely why it is that you cannot be taken seriously. You just fabricate ****e without attempting any verification. Much like Israel.
Holocaust industry lies have been exposed frequently over the years. Lamp shades from human skin, soap etc..
Were they persecuted ? Yes, along with many other sectors of the population. Does it give them the right to behave as they please? Not in my book.
There are heaps of Jews speaking out against the depraved treatment of Palestinians. They are rarely if ever given a podium. I follow Finkelstein, Greenwald, Blumenthal, Mate and a number of others.
I delved more deeply into what happened on 7/10 than most. One of the first things I listened to was Bret Weinstein interviewing Efrat Fenigson, Jewish journalist and ex intelligence operative who spent a day a week during her conscription manning the border. The interview goes for nearly two hours. She goes to great pains to explain that at the time of the interview there was no logical explanation as to how Hamas achieved what they did without instant response from the Israeli military. An achievement which would have been impossible in her time in the military 20 years ago at a time when surveillance technology could only achieve a fraction that can be achieved today.
Answer me this one question.
Why is it that Jewish refugees from Russia were welcomed to Germany before the turn of the century, settling there without fear of persecution only to experience a rapid drop of the hat type reversal of sentiment in the 1930's?
Hint: It's got something to do with selling out their hosts in exchange for British support for a return to the promised land.
The hoax comment came from the Benjamin Friedman speech you posted in another thread, sorry couldn't listen to 2 hours of him but a quick google identified him as a holocaust denier, That's enough of a conspiritard theory to lose any credibility.
I haven't done the research you have, I haven't read Mein Kampf either but I have heard Hitler was already anti jewish long before 1930. You have other info, then spill it, don't just say "hint", otherwise you just formulating an argument based on "facts" you know that know one else has and are therefore unverifiable. I guess that ensures your correct in your own mind.
The idea that the Israeli Government allowed Oct 7th to happen or even worse were involved in it is pretty wild. If there was evidence of that I would expect to see some evidence not just hearsay from a journalist who was in the military 20 years ago. I think that is up there with FE theories as well.
So I am basically guessing you subscribe to the Hamas view that Zionism is trying to take over the world, Yes, No? Zionist's are the Globalist's you keep referring to?
Thats a serious amount of power that Wikepedia has! And Google for popping that up. So here is a copy of his introduction.to balance things up a tad because there is a serious level of disparity between being a holocaust denier and what he was known for. 
If what he says is true then the whole world deserves to know the truth and it goes all the way toward explaining the radical rise of anti-Semitism in a country, Germany, where it was previously non existent and was in actual fact a haven for persecuted Jews from Russia
Zionists have played a massive part in global politics for a long time. They were especially active during the communist revolution in Russia and played a huge hand in the power structure. At the time the Russian Jewish population was somewhere around 4%. Zionists held roughly 30% of office. Bear in mind that this was at a time when the most heinous atrocities were perpetrated. I've read a plausible account that 26 million people were murdered. By famine and gun shot.
To really rub it in Zionist Bankers poured money into the revolution. Arguably making it possible. Oh and they set up the first revolutionary central bank. Funny that!
The Zionist Sayanim network around the world is massive. An estimated 2000 active members in London alone. Zionist banking power is supreme. Do they plan to rule the world?
I think that they are being used to achieve that purpose and would likely be rewarded with high office should that occur. I also think that they are being used in a big way. Like now.
And the funny thing is is that of all the Jews who protest against Zionism it's the Ultra Orthodox who are the most vocal.
It stinks like three day old fish. The whole bloody thing. And they're completely mad
All of the above may be true, I don't know, I bother to read what you post, in most cases I think its plausible and I don't trust the elites running the show.
However I do think its unlikely the Israeli government was involved in Oct 7, that is a step to far, there would need to be evidence before I could begin to believe that were the case.
Now I don't think the Israeli Government is virtuous or without fault but I do believe they have a right and an obligation to defend their country and citizens and I do think Israel has as much right as any other country to exist.
In the face of an enemy that has vowed never to stop until Israel is gone I think they have little choice but to keep going until the enemy/Hamas is destroyed. I don't believe its a genocide, its a horrible war for sure. The genocide slur is propaganda, 3 times as many people were killed in one night at Dresden or Tokyo or Hiroshima. The battle of the Somme killed 50000 in one day. Its not a genocide, the IDF have the capacity but they are not using it. My belief is the IDF have a hugely difficult job trying to eliminate terrorists hell bent on using the population as shield's. Hamas have openly said that is the case so its not even a point of dispute.
If Hamas are eliminated will their be peace, probably not. People have been fighting over that land from antiquity to now. Iran and its proxies will continue to provoke. All Israel can do is deal with the enemy at the gate.

Does abortion really have much impact on the population? If people accepted that they would have a baby every time they got pregnant, with the enforced 9 months or more off, would they keep going at it? I doubt it. Behaviors would change.
In times of old people could still try and avoid pregnancy, it just seems that now it is easier.

The keys to avoiding pregnancy are education and access to contraception.
It's no coincidence that high rates of unsafe abortions occur in areas where abortion is illegal or extremely difficult to access, which just also happen to be areas with very poor education stats and almost non existent access to contraceptives.
Women in those areas also tend to have cultural expectations to not avoid pregnancy, whether they wish to use old or new methods.
A few experts were discussing abortion in the U.S. specifically the Roe vrs Wade saga on Radio National this arvo. It was pretty dull, but I believe there are some angry anglo males on Seabreeze that may find it worthwhile.
