Edit: I'm convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.

Please be aware that Hamas is a terrorist organisation, meaning that they don't have a strict militia, and they often disguise themselves as civilians. So long as Hamas continues to hide in civilian infrastructure, legally, the IDF can continue these attacks.

The UN has told Hamas to stop this for decades, but it's fallen on deaf ears and is likely to continue.

Likewise, where is your evidence of the 150k figure? Isn't the figure 38-40k?

Estimations of indirect deaths varies of course since they are more difficult.

The 150k includes these indirect deaths. Deaths from starvation, trampling, disease and sickness as a result of the war.

The Lancet has been used by Hamas before. The death numbers are likely very off and purely fictional as there is no credible source for any of that.

Furthermore lancet doesn't let me fact check with spinscore so thats another reason to not trust them. (403 forbidden error)

You think that is an argument? "Hamas" have used it, that's it? Hamas has also been using H20 in vast quantities. You gonna stop drinking water too?

"Are likely very off and purely fictional", If you were capable of reading it yourself instead of just letting your little AI bot do it. You would know why and how they arrive at these estimates. Since they list their sources and references that lead to their estimates. and what they are attributed to
