The ratio of collateral deaths to combatants in Gaza war, 1.6-1.8, is outstandingly low, it is more impressive given the fighting takes place in dense urban areas where the jihadists are well entrenched and prepared. The IDF has created a real challenge for every army in future war, western armies that is, given none western are not held to such scrutiny. They are using accurate munitions otherwise the death toll would have been manifold higher. PS obviously they do not know where all the "stuff" is and most important where the abducted Israeli and non Israeli citizens are held.

@ZenTurtle The old community of Jews that used to live in Gaza perished in Islamist riots of 1929, concurrent with dozens of other communities, the massacre in Hebron was documented, you can see the photos of that ISIS style massacre in archives of the NYT. Photos like the gut churning photos of the massacre of Oct. 7 only in black and white. *In 1929 the massacres were committed mostly by mobs. 1929 is 19 years before the reinstitution of Israel, 38 years before Israel took Gaza strip from Egypt, 37 years before the process of appropriating the title Palestinians by Arabs has even started.

@Mike-v4c5l They don't need to, Israel serves American economical, geopolitical and military interests very well.

@MrDjmaidi The Arab Israeli conflict had started when Mohamad failed to convince Jews to take him as a leader, some 1400 years ago.

@TruthFiction Land Survey of 1945: State land 71.6% (=Non private) Lebanese and Syrian landlords 16.5%. Local Jews 8.6%. Local Arab 3.3%. State Land transferred from the Ottomans to GB then to Israel.

@log_17 That will make Israeli weapon manufacturers very happy and American ones sad (Once for loosing purchase orders and second for growing competition). The gain for American economy would be the inefficiencies in subsidizing weapon manufacturers, the main loss will be a rise in oil prices, due to increased instability in the middle east.

@Jessika-Bat Israel is the 10th-largest arms exporter, accounting for 1.4 % of global arms sales during the period of 2018-22 (SIPRI Arms Transfer Database, March 2023). Companies like Israel Aerospace Industries, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, and Elbit Systems dominate the country’s defense industry. Israel’s arms exports decreased by 39% from 2013-17 to 2018-22.

They want the attention of the mob which play of emotions attracts => higher viewers rating = higher income.

@S.Sheezy There are no US troops in Israel, never were (except for the few guarding the embassy and some operating and guarding a US radar base).

@ArtSmosh1274 USA's yearly aid worth is ~16% of Israel's total military budget.

@jeffreycarman2185 Some samples of LAST 20 years: Nigeria vs Boko Haram 350,000 dead Sudan vs JEM/Darfur 300,000 dead Yemen vs Houthis 233,000 dead Pakistan vs Islamists 50,000 dead Syria's civil war 400,000 dead South Sudan's civil war 400,000 dead Ethiopia and Eritrea vs Tigray 600,000 dead No protests for all these dead. It is not about people in Gaza, it is about who excites and organizes these protests and for what gain and whose and what interests. We should question why and how gaza gets so much coverage vs. all the others, Is it lazy media? is someone pumping the media? Is someone controlling paid media? Is it simply the convenience of reporting from Tel Aviv vs reporting from Darfur? We should also question the validity of numbers which come from Hamas, how many are of natural causes (6000-8000 would be a typically expected number), how many are Hamas/Jihad members (IDF says 12000), how many self inflicted (5-10% of the 12000 is typical), how many civilian due to misfire (e.g. 500 in Al Shifa).

Because it is a proxy war serving the interests of Iran, Russia and Qatar. The main goal of the attack on Israel was to prevent the forthcoming deal between KSA and Israel that will be creating an bypass export route that neutralizes Irans threat over the gulf straits. Qatar the chief sponsor of the jihadists, invested 5 billion $ in controlling US university campuses as well as British institutes.

@Kh-7777 In reality Israel is not white but for the woke mob it is.

@truth4004 Israel Took control over Gaza strip from Egypt in 1697 and gave it away to the Palestinian Authority to control in 2005, Hamas won 2006 elections and toppled the PLO in July 2007 (literally toppled off roof tops), Hamas controlled Gaza ever since up to October 7th 2023, no Israeli soldier was there inside Gaza Strip, except for the dead bodies of two Israeli soldiers held by Hamas.

@OfficialJPryde The media is already inside Gaza Strip, NTM anyone with a smartphone can provide material. This is the most covered conflict ever. Your comment makes it more ironic given the internet services that allow the coverage gets out of Gaza to Europe through Israeli fiberoptic cables, that Israel could have jammed.

It is a majority vs. minorities conflict. The middle east Arab Islamic majority cannot accept the existence of an independent state of a minority, be it of Maronites, Assyrians, Druze or others, especially of Jews. By Arab Islamic culture, if it is not dominated and controlled by an Arab Islamic regime then it is an occupation. The so called nakba is the result of you great grandparents opening a genocidal war and unexpectedly loosing, shamefully to Jews that your culture hates and defames so much. FYI many more Jews fled from Arab areas to Israel and became refugees than Arabs who fled from Israeli controlled areas, yet Arab cherish and inherit that refugee status for keeping the flame of war while the Jewish refugees moved on.
