(18,837 posts)Hamas must be gone either through another election or just gone. They are awful. I think the main focus should be on Hamas. They seem like always an afterthought. Israel needs a world wide apology.

Maybe they suspected it was all bullshit but didn't have the cojones to admit it.

(6,279 posts)And if you're going to tell me 7600 are "okay" sarcastically, I'm going to ask if 1200 is "okay" too.

(8,489 posts)They can be verified to a certain degree and are considered valid. "The United Nations and other international institutions and experts, as well as Palestinian authorities in the West Bank rivals of Hamas say the Gaza ministry has long made a good-faith effort to account for the dead under the most difficult conditions." "The numbers may not be perfectly accurate on a minute-to-minute basis, said Michael Ryan, of the World Health Organizations Health Emergencies Program. But they largely reflect the level of death and injury. In previous wars, the ministrys counts have held up to U.N. scrutiny, independent investigations and even Israels tallies. "
