Can You IMAGINE 30k deaths? A genocide happened in gaza and it took months, i think a year to reach 30k target and you are saying iran judt straight up killed 30k civilians in 1-2 days?

The Gaza numbers are confirmed deaths, with bodies and identities and all, it's not counting people they can't identify or who are missing and presumed dead (buried under rubble and the like). The confirmed death tolls are considered to be a vast undercount of actual total deaths. This 30k number is much less rigorous and we have no way to know it's accuracy.

  • The Gaza numbers that most Western media uncritically report are nonsense spewed out by Hamas whose agenda is aided by making that number as high as possible.

    • That's not true. Many independent estimates have been made. Israel doesn't release any numbers at all, which they could easily do if they wanted to claim that casualty numbers were falsified.
