The public being fed erroneous information, swallowing it, and digesting it is the insanity of this entire crisis.

This from frontpagemag.com.

The Israeli defensive action in Gaza is causing—We the People are being auditorily fed—a massive humanitarian crisis that must stop immediately. All the most trustworthy people in the world are mimicking this bullsh*t.

Kamala Harris declared on Saturday:

The United States is unequivocal; international humanitarian law must be respected. Too many innocent Palestinians have been killed.

Frankly, the scale of civilian suffering and the images and videos coming from Gaza are devastating.

Then on Monday, the Associated Press, with zero journalistic objectivity to its credit, reported:

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and what it called ‘a robust group of Democratic senators’ were done ‘asking nicely’ for Israel to do more to reduce civilian casualties in Gaza.

These fools of the Left “warned” the national security team that planned U.S. aid to Israel:

[M]ust be met with assurances of concrete steps from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s hard-right government.

Sanders thundered:

The truth is that if asking nicely worked, we wouldn’t be in the position we are today.

AP added:

It was time for the United States to use its ‘substantial leverage’ with its ally, the Vermont senator said.

As a buttress to the indignation and shrill demands of Harris and Sanders, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) on Sunday published a chart of “Reported Casualties” in Gaza:

[T]he numbers look grim indeed: over 15,523 deaths, with 4,257 women and 6,387 children making up fully 70% of that figure.

The far-left establishment media is putting out substantially the same figures. The UK’s Guardian wrote Tuesday:

[I]n the last three days, bombing has been heavy, and the total death toll since 7 October has risen to 15,899.

These figures not only aroused the righteous indignation of our nation’s leftist self-appointed voices of conscience, but they moved the antisemitic Unz Review to the heights of hysteria:

We are certainly witnessing the greatest televised slaughter of helpless civilians in the history of the world, with nothing even remotely comparable coming to mind.

This would be terrible indeed, if half the crap being reported was true. But let’s take a deep breath and then read the small print. The UN attributes its figures for Palestinian casualties in Gaza to the “Ministry of Health” and the “Government Media Office.”

Which Ministry of Health? Which government? The UN does not say.

[A]nd its reticence on this point is likely due to the fact that the government and Health Ministry in question are those of Hamas in Gaza. The Guardian likewise attributes its figures to ‘the Gaza health ministry.’ Yes, that’s right: the one that Hamas runs.

This would be like the New York Times during World War II reporting massive German civilian deaths in an Allied offensive and attributing its data to Josef Goebbels’ Propaganda Ministry. Hamas obviously has very good reasons to inflate the number of Palestinian civilian casualties: the higher the numbers, the angrier Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, and Antony Blinken get, and the closer the Biden regime moves to cutting ties with Israel and isolating the Jewish state completely.

Hamas is lying.

A board member of the media watchdog Honest Reporting who goes by the single name Aizenberg took a close look at the day-to-day casualty figures that the UN publishes from Hamas and found a large number of significant anomalies.

Aizenberg noted:

It is immediately obvious that Hamas does not report ANY combatant deaths & the numbers amazingly seem to indicate that IDF bombs & bullets disproportionately hit women, children & elderly. The IDF CANNOT seem to hit too many fighting age men. [But also,] the numbers are faked.

On Oct. 19, for example:

 – [T]he total casualty number increased by 307, from 3,478 to 3,785. Yet at the same time, the total number of children killed went from 853 to 1,524, an increase of 671.

– Nor was that the only time such a thing happened. On Oct. 26, the total number of casualties increased by 481, while the number of children casualties went up by 626.

Clearly, the Hamas Ministry of Health in Gaza is not too concerned that people will study these numbers closely; the idea is simply to shock and appall people with Israel’s alleged inhumanity, and that is working well enough.

The likes of Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders may fall for this. No reasonable person should.
