Israel 'understated' Gaza deaths

An Israeli human rights group says many more Palestinian civilians were killed in the Israeli military's campaign in Gaza than the army admits.

B'Tselem said detailed research with careful cross-checking showed 1,387 Palestinians died, over half of them civilians and 252 of them children.

This contradicts an Israeli army report stating fewer than 300 civilians died in fighting in December and January.

Israel launched the assault to halt rocket attacks from Hamas-run Gaza.

The overall B'Tselem total broadly tallies with the official Palestinian death toll and the findings of other non-governmental organisations, although the proportion of civilians it identifies is lower.

IRI: Protesters killed Neda Sultan!

Shah Gholam,

 

At least Israel kills and says it understands or it doesn’t say “someone” else did it. Compare that to your beloved IRI regime when they kill innocent Iranians and they blame it on the protesters themselves and on BBC!

Also, IRIs anti Israeli propaganda is not a sign of “righteousness”, the only thing it represents is its desperation and lack of legitimacy and credibility, because if you are a democratic humane government, you don’t have to engage in this anti Israeli or any other kind of extreme behavior or propaganda madness (regardless of how good or bad Israel or others are) to legitimize yourself among your supporters and the people you rule. Only low confidence paranoid and illegitimate regimes, which IRI is the best example of, bash others in order for themselves to look righteous because Khomeini and Khamenei know very very very very well, the vast majority of Iranians are counting the mini seconds for this regime, and its supporters like you, to go the hell. So they have to blame others and make others look bad in order to gain legitimacy. So, maybe you didn’t know this, but now you do. Anti Israeli propaganda by a Fascist regime like IRi is only digging itself a bigger hole and nothing else. You wanna join their sinking boat, I highly recommend it!
