    To be fair, most of them were actually run over, not shot.

    It boggles the mind that they think this is a valid argument.

    Edit: I know it isn’t true, it was a bullshit claim initially made by the IDF. But how is running them over instead even remotely better?

      Something like 100 of the ~ 115 dead had bullet wounds, but that doesn’t include the 700 or so wounded.

      Wrong. The only source for that claim is the idf. Doctors who received the wounded said 80% had gunshot wounds.

      Are we into triple digits for “shit the IDF says that’s soon proven to be utter bullshit” yet?

        It was an initial claim made by the IDF.

        I guess a /s was needed
