It's estimated that the Allies killed about 20,000 French civilians in the Normandy invasion.

Intense combat where people have homes results in civilian casualties. Who knew?

WW2 isnt really comparable to whats happening in Gaza but Im sure youll find another strawman to beat up anyway.
you'll do anything but look at the truth

...

in your world, you need that to be true because you think war =//= genocide. as long as its a war, anything goes. you're free to believe whatever you want but you're dead wrong

No, anything does not go. But you can't see a distinction between intentionally attempting to commit atrocities (actual genocide)and the unfortunate consequences of combat.

see whats where you and I differ. I dont see 11k innocent civilians dead as "unfortunate consequences of combat", I see it as a consequence of genocide. Ive been watching whats happening and listening to what Israeli leaders are saying, this isnt just 'combat'

I love the emotional loaded terms used by you Hamas apologists. How many of those 11,000 are Hamas combatants?

...



?

so the estimate is now 15,000 - 20,000

6,400 were children
3,500 were women
70+ were journalists
101 were UN staff (the most ever killed in the UN's 78 year history)

you tell me how many Hamas have been killed? doesnt seem like very many based on the numbers in that report....seems more like genocide, or maybe Israel is just comically terrible at killing Hamas too ?
