« (…) mostly when we talk about Israel's right of Defense we're taking isolated Palestinian actions but we're not saying that this population also has the right to defend against the occupation (…) »
The #NationalSecurityCouncil is 'concerned' 🙄 about the number of 'casualties' in #Palestine 🇵🇸, therefore what they'll do about it, is have more fucking 'talks' about how 'concerned' they are🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱!!!
#Haaretz vs #NYT The photos and statistics Haaretz lost in translation
Also missing in translation, some of the gruesome statistics:
NYT: "women and children account for nearly 70 percent of all deaths reported in #Gaza even though most combatants are men — an “extraordinary statistic.”
Haaretz chose to simply state "many women and children". It provides the absolute numbers , just not the proportion of women and children, which are alarmingly high considering most, if not all, combatants are male.
Haaretz also repeats #IDF line about #Hamas numbers being inflated, even though experts quoted in the NYT article suggest their own estimates are very conservative, considering the type of bombs Israel is using.
"Those bombs are “really big,” said Mr. Garlasco, the adviser for the PAX organization. Israel, he said, also has thousands of smaller bombs from the United States that are designed to limit damage in dense urban areas, but weapons experts say they have seen little evidence that they are being used frequently."
