    Can you tell us how many people have died of natural causes in Gaza over the past 27 months?

    If you don’t have the statistics are you able to extrapolate from past statistics?

    Also, who broke the peace agreement on Oct 07 2023?

      Trash.

      Israel is committing genocide. Everyone knows it. Even the people accepting money from Israeli supporting donors to deny it.

      Anyone who currently supports the Israeli regime is an antisemitic racist turd.

      The Hamas attack on October 7 was also wrong and bad. No excuses there. But there has to be limits on retaliation.

        At this point, it’s clear that the ongoing genocide is not a retaliation. The Oct 7 attacks were simply an excuse to escalate their genocide and complete the occupation of Palestine. This is common practice in invasions and wars, there’s very rarely a solid reason for war beyond seizing resources like land or oil.

      According to worldbank.org:

      • In 2022 the crude death rate across Gaza and West Bank was 3.0/1000pop/year.
      • In 2023 it was 7.0/1000pop/year.

      I expect Gaza specific stats are worse. Maybe someone else has further info they can cite, perhaps also relating to 2024-2025, but like others have said, such data is difficult to collect when Israel repeatedly bombs hospitals and their personnel.
