    Hamas killed 1200 with about 500 to 600 civilian deaths

    Minus a few hundred Israel killed with “friendly fire”.

      Oh we’re doing that? If so, take a couple thousand off the other side that Hamas killed with their rockets. 25% of those never make it out of the Gaza strip, landing on their own civilians instead of making it to Israeli population centers.

        I think the total number killed by Hamas rockets EVER is like 30 to 50. Might be a little off. It’s more about draining Israel’s money and putting up a show than anything else.

          That’s false. Once the iron dome went up, it decreased significantly for sure. Also, Hamas has always aimed for killing civilians. Israel has just gotten exceptionally good at stopping them.

          Nah, even Hamas hasn’t managed to kill hundreds of thousands with their rockets. They only wish they could.

            Wrong direction, and when the country you’re defending killed 8,000 children in two months, it’s not even funny.

              Well going in the other direction is wrong. Hamas has killed lots of Palestinians with their rockets.
