A few weeks ago, I rebutted the libel being disseminated by haters that Israel has killed millions of palestinian Arabs.
As I pointed out in my post, even taking figures from anti-Israel sites, the number would be closer to 100,000. And bear in mind:
-
The vast majority of the palestinians killed have been in the context of wars started by them and their Arab brethren
-
Many of these were actual combatants. While the actual civilian-combatant ratio is impossible to garner, Israel has been known – especially in more recent times – to take great care to minimize civilian casualties, prompting Colonel Richard Kemp to famously state “the ratio of civilian to combatant deaths in Gaza was by far the lowest in any asymmetric conflict in the history of warfare.”
-
Many of the civilians killed were placed in harms way by their terrorist brethren, either willingly or against their will
Now we have further confirmation of the number being around 100,000 even according to Quds News Network, which is known to exaggerate and lie.
In other words, the true number is almost certainly way less.
Either way, this is dwarfed by the numbers of Muslims killed by their own in conflicts like the Syrian Civil War, which has claimed the lives of between 387,100 and about 593,000 as of December 2020. Not to mention the fact the palestinian Arab population has been growing rapidly since 1948!
