The article includes the initial Oct. 7 atrack, which is fair imo and checks somewhat out. Though they rounded down some.
Since October 7, when Hamas forces killed 1,139 Israelis and foreigners, including roughly 700 Israeli civilians, almost zero Israeli civilians have been killed by Palestinian forces. Since then, a few dozen Israeli hostages have been killed.
Israel has killed over 40,000 Palestinians since October. Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor estimates that at least 92 percent of those killed are civilians, meaning that at least 38,000 of those whose deaths have been reported to officials are civilians.
The true death toll is likely far, far higher, experts have said.
If we believe these numbers
700 + ‘a few dozen’ Israeli civilians
38.000 Palestinian civilians
I come out at closer to 1:50.
But math never was my strength.
Ah, they’re using the old numbers for Palestinian deaths, which have barelly been updated since Israel destroyed most Hospitals in Gaza as the deaths were counted based on the corpses arriving at the Hospitals and people dying there.
Using the number published a month or two ago in a scientific article in The Lancet medical journal, which estimated over 180,000 Palestinian civilian deaths in Gaza due to Israeli attacks since October, the ratio is about 1 to 250.
I think they’ve dropped one of two zeros in that number.
