3. The IDF was holding thousands of Palestinians in security detention without trial or hearing before 7 Oct 2023.

Several prisoner swaps took place in Nov 2023. Bibi could have traded more Palestinian detainees for the release of all the Israeli captives.

You really think that would stop this? hahahaha Klarkashton Jan 10 #77
Of course it won't stop this. But Hamas still needs to release the hostages on humanitarian grounds. totodeinhere Jan 11 #88

Give peace a chance, Israel. Rid yourself of warmonger Netanyahu. brush Jan 9 #38
How are you, brush? I agree with you 100%. C0RI0LANUS Jan 9 #43

I wonder how many 17 year old children were killed Oct 7. I wonder how many 17 year old children have been killed AZLD4Candidate Jan 9 #8
It was a 17 day old child endgenocide Jan 9 #12
Your Vatican News link clearly states that the source of the news is "Gaza's Hamas-run Ministry of Health". lapucelle Jan 9 #15
AP is a reputable news organization iemanja Jan 9 #23
The AP story in your link is dated December 19, 2023. That was a different 17 day old baby. lapucelle Jan 9 #30
You clearly didn't watch the Sunday Morning broadcast iemanja Jan 9 #36
You helpfully provided a link to the transcript. I downloaded it as a searchable document. lapucelle Jan 9 #41
Again, you didn't read it iemanja Jan 9 #42
You claimed that the IDF is TARGETING children and used the story as the source for that claim. lapucelle Jan 9 #44
At least 74 children killed in the first 7 days of the year. AloeVera Jan 10 #51
Responsible media do not take the claims of terrorists at face value. lapucelle Jan 10 #54
Nah. The daily killing is no longer newsworthy most days. But today's headlines are about the 41% death-toll undercount. AloeVera Jan 10 #56
Speculation is not news. Analysis that utilizes social media posts as a factual data set is especially not news. lapucelle Jan 10 #60
Of course not. AloeVera Jan 10 #61
You didn't read the study. There were three data set sources. None was the "primary" source. lapucelle Jan 10 #64
I told you I read it a couple of days ago! AloeVera Jan 10 #65
It's generally good policy not to assert as factual what one is not sure of. lapucelle Jan 10 #67
Another generally good policy is to assume people here are telling the truth when they assert something they have done AloeVera Jan 10 #70
Yes, your re-reading the article is absolutely a good idea. lapucelle Jan 10 #66
Ok thank you. AloeVera Jan 10 #69
Sorry, but using data sets that include self-reported surveys and social media claims are questionable methods at best. lapucelle Jan 11 #84

Your attempt misses the mark. My response to to you concerned a single claim. lapucelle Jan 10 #75
And those numbers claimed by the health ministry have been historically proven to be accurate. Eko Jan 10 #76
You're arguing with yourself about the reliability Hama's casualty numbers in an effort to deflect. lapucelle Jan 11 #82
You keep saying that but your first post on here belies that claim. Eko Jan 11 #90
... lapucelle Jan 11 #91
Your argument is you cant trust the Health Ministries numbers. Eko Jan 11 #94
What organization would you accept it being verified by? Eko Jan 10 #57
Vatican news also has a conservative lean. Anyone quoting the hamas government for numbers gets nothing from m AZLD4Candidate Jan 9 #27
Who would you trust to count endgenocide Jan 9 #40
Anyone but a government run by a genocidal terrorist organization. From the river to the sea is a call for genocide AZLD4Candidate Jan 10 #47
OK so who specifically? endgenocide Jan 10 #49
You side-eye AP, Reuters, MSNBC, CNN, BBC AloeVera Jan 10 #52
Wow!!! MarineCombatEngineer Jan 9 #19
Maybe they've been reading threads iemanja Jan 9 #22
attacking the messenger is normal when your sources are hamas. AZLD4Candidate Jan 9 #28
does Hamas care that their people's children are dying? Doesn't seem like it LymphocyteLover Jan 9 #35
Neither do these pro hamas protestors. They only care that people in another religion are fighting back because 1200 AZLD4Candidate Jan 10 #48

there are always some skeptical assholes but there's no question that Israel has killed many LymphocyteLover Jan 9 #29
I wasn't aware of that iemanja Jan 9 #31
I have been trying to make DU aware of genocides before October 7 sarisataka Jan 9 #34
I appreciate the few threads that I've seen on the Sudan iemanja Jan 9 #39
Attacking the messenger is a favourite tactic when the news brought makes one uncomfortable. AloeVera Jan 10 #53
