Let me say that I do believe that the Israeli government is committing genocide. And they believe they are too. They've said the quiet part out loud. They don't want to live in peace with the Palestinians.

Can you tell us how many people have died of natural causes in Gaza over the past 27 months?

If you don't have the statistics are you able to extrapolate from past statistics?

Also, who broke the peace agreement on Oct 07 2023?

Trash.

Israel is committing genocide. Everyone knows it. Even the people accepting money from Israeli supporting donors to deny it.

Anyone who currently supports the Israeli regime is an antisemitic racist turd.

According to worldbank.org:

  • In 2022 the crude death rate across Gaza and West Bank was 3.0/1000pop/year.
  • In 2023 it was 7.0/1000pop/year.

I expect Gaza specific stats are worse. Maybe someone else has further info they can cite, perhaps also relating to 2024-2025, but like others have said, such data is difficult to collect when Israel repeatedly bombs hospitals and their personnel.

How have you still not copped a ban for repeated genocide denial?

[–] golden@sh.itjust.works 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Instance admins support them and their alts.

Do you want to supply some evidence when you make accusations about our instance?

[–] golden@sh.itjust.works 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Lack of action speaks for itself. I'll retract my statement when people like Seagoon are banned.

[–] eureka@aussie.zone 0 points 4 months ago

No, it doesn't. They're not omnipotent.

And it would honestly be helpful if you have evidence of any alt accounts, because those will need to be banned.

No investigation, no right to shitpost.

Zionazis are not welcome here.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago

We can’t tell you because Israel purposely bombed all the hospitals and killed the journalist

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 0 points 4 months ago

You're losing and you know it

The Hamas attack on October 7 was also wrong and bad. No excuses there. But there has to be limits on retaliation.

[–] eureka@aussie.zone 0 points 4 months ago

At this point, it's clear that the ongoing genocide is not a retaliation. The Oct 7 attacks were simply an excuse to escalate their genocide and complete the occupation of Palestine. This is common practice in invasions and wars, there's very rarely a solid reason for war beyond seizing resources like land or oil.
