Respected sir, As much as I understand & agree with the overall sentiment of what you are saying here; being that this is a very sensitive human issue that is going to lead to massive civilian casualties henceforth, I have to point out that your central argument - that of contextualising this act of terror using numbers - rests on a piece of information that is not yet publicly verified by an unbiased party at the moment.

Fair point sir; the source for these numbers is a spokesperson of the IDF & I could not find any proof that the Israel delegation in the UN or the UN press officially claims this number, hence my concern.

It's heartening to see your take on this subject in the exact same way you took your stance on Manipur. Loved reading that article to. A bit of whataboutry is always good to see what one really care about. Every far left and right will be blocked and sadly you are in one bracket now and you know it very well
