Nearly 70 percent of deaths in Gaza are women and children: UN

Given that most Palestinians are under the age of 14, this was to be expected: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_State_of_Palestine

"Yeah but women and girls will give birth to terrorists, and boys will become terrorists. These are just preemptive-preemptive strikes... Historians may call this genocide but we disagree semantically". - Israeli government probably

According to the CIA world factbook (the only source I could find) the population spread in gaza is:

0-14 years: 38.8% (male 427,450/female 404,288) 15-64 years: 58.3% (male 627,235/female 620,903) 65 years and over: 2.9% (2024 est.) (male 31,655/female 30,112)

Meaning about 30% of the population are males over 14.

So I guess Israel isn't disproportionately murdering women and children, theyre just killing everyone. So genocide.

By eliminating the next generation(s) and the females in fertile age, it is more effective at wiping out a population than engaging directly with it.

This is valid for getting rid of vermin, capable of explosive breeding.

No need to guess what the results will be when applied to human beings.

In case anyone forgot from autumn 2023:

On Saturday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israelis were united in their fight against Hamas, whom he described as an enemy of incomparable cruelty. “They are committed to completely eliminating this evil from the world,” Netanyahu said in Hebrew. He then added: “You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. And we do remember.”

As others quickly pointed out, God commands King Saul in the first Book of Samuel to kill every person in Amalek, a rival nation to ancient Israel. “This is what the Lord Almighty says,” the prophet Samuel tells Saul. “‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”

70% of people are women and children.

Is that just because 70% of people are women and children or is there bias?

Why are so many women and children joining Hamas?

I guess it's "nice" to confirm that they're still killing Palestinians at random.

Yeah, no shit

In the US those who abstained from voting or voted third party have sealed Gaza’s fate.

What are the numbers today if Hamas killed?

Are we at the point where we're saying some lives are more valuable than others; I didn't think we were, but this headline sure wants to foster outrage at the deaths of women and children while ignoring the death of men.

That's because Mama's surrounds military targets with civilians.

wow did you know that ~50% of people are female and ~50% of people in Gaza are children? what a shocking statistic that ~70% of people killed are women or children!

And right now liberals are cheering on more of them.

B-b-b-but what about Trump?!

I’m sure Trump will improve the situation. Good job getting rid of Genocide Joe and Hatchet girl Kamala!

That's 70% of confirmed deaths. So essentially this number is meaningless, as we don't know the whole picture.
