Didn't you say they were the ones who reported your non-Hezbollah casualty figure though?
You could just link to what you're talking about, that might clear up any confusion.
I don’t have any “non-Hezbollah casualty figures.” I’m assuming that any casualties Hezbollah doesn’t claim are the civilians.
I’m still not understand what you’re finding unclear.
You've not sourced your 0.1% figure. Safe to assume there is none.
The source is Hezbollah. As I’ve told you.
This is the most infuriating comment section I have ever seen.
Yeah but Hezbollah are worse akshually
Defense of Israel is effectively banned on Lemmy
Dude. You keep making the same definitive statement over and over and then when asked to back it up, give this “who? what?” routine. Why anyone is even engaging with you, I don’t know. Yet here I am.
One must imagine @AugustWest as happy
I did back it up. I can’t make people read it, though
Their handler only ever told them the source was Hezbollah, so they don’t really know where to go from here. It’s why their script keeps looping.

Unless you meant to link a different source, I have to just assume you didn't actually read it
2,800 injured (according to the Lebanon health minister, not Hezbollah - and no data on how many were associated with hezbolla)
12 dead, of which 2 children and 4 health care workers (50% unaffiliated, a far-cry from your claimed 0.1%)(also reported from the health minister
Thanks for providing a source, though
The article states that his figures are coming from Hezbollah.
Lol, uh, no It doesn't
Thanks for playing though
oops, you left out this part:
Not to mention that the article does not say that the health ministry is getting their victim numbers from hezbollah, and why would they? They are their own agency, they're capable of gathering their own metrics from their own hospitals.
Also, even if you were right about where the numbers are coming from, that article still says that half of the casualties were civilian non-combatants.
