Re: *Prompter Thread* (NO personal attacks, NO trolling)

On one hand, you have faulty and inefficient data collection/reporting methodologies, through a terrorist run organization, being further worsened through a fog of war and incompetence of the terrorist-leadership.

On the other, you have a bunch of nerds showing a divergence in the data - who actually think the data is undercounted in net but does contain incorrect demographic mix, whose institution received funding from a US political action committee for Israeli relations.

And we’re going to be most skeptical of…which one?

    I just think every news source has bias. Al Jazeera has bias as well. His comment pointed out bias by posting another news source with bias? Dumb.

    If there is agreement that the death toll is likely undercounted, I’m not sure why it matters that there are inaccuracies in the demographic mix to be honest.

    The US government regularly cites the death statistics provided by the health ministry, and the UN says it’s typically pretty close to what they have.

    You don’t understand why it matters if far fewer women and children are being killed than Hamas and their affiliates are claiming?

    That’s fair, I don’t disagree. But you only seem to call out/post lol guys about the outlets that have a contradictory view to yours.

    Not in particular, no. Are you insinuating that only women and children matter because all men in Gaza are Hamas?

    The reason they are doing that is because then it falls under "children". And leftists like you don't think of 16 and 17 year olds when you think of children you think of 4 and 5 year olds.

    If Israel kills that person Hamas can just change that person's age to 16. Boom. Child died.

    Win win win for Hamas. Leftists think Israel killed an innocent little 4 year old.

    TheLastStop123 is the king of pointing out potential inaccuracies. It should should matter to him.

    I posted this awhile ago, they release the ages of people who die, along with verifiable records proving their age:

    But Thursday, in response to U.S. doubts over its figures, the ministry released a 212-page report listing every Palestinian killed in the war so far, including their names, ID numbers, ages and gender. A copy of the report shared with the AP names 6,747 Palestinians and says an additional 281 bodies have not yet been identified. The list did not provide a breakdown by location.
    https://apnews.com/article/israel-ha...f73c703400b033

    It is true that they don’t distinguish between militant and civilian deaths, nor do they distinguish those who die by hamas’s own rocket fire

    That article was last updated on November 6th.

    Quote:
    Inconsistencies grew even more pronounced after the Gaza Health Ministry's fatality-counting effort collapsed around November 10 and the GMO took over until at least December 2, at which point the Health Ministry resumed its daily reporting.


    While the ministry has not released subtotals since resuming its reporting, it has consistently asserted that roughly 70% of those killed are women and children, a proportion repeated by many news outlets and the UN.

    This is where the study noted the divergence in the data began.

    That article seems to focus on total number of deaths.

    "names, ID numbers, ages and gender." Is that then independently verified? Maybe the id numbers line up that the 16 year olds are actually 16 and not 19?
