      Sure but with that logic it was never too late to stop Hitler either. Great it happened, but the timing was open to improvement.

      We’re already more than 60.000 confirmed Israeli murders into the most obvious genocide in world history. Even the Nazis did a better job at hiding the Holocaust while it was happening.

        Worth noting that the 60,000 number is confirmed munitions deaths. The number including deaths by disease and famine is much higher.

            Yeah. My guess it that they’re trying to be as conservative as possible to prevent the numbers being dismissed as inflated. Obviously that hasn’t worked, but it may well be even worse if they published the full numbers.

            It’s extremely telling that the lancet estimating a quarter million dead a year ago has been completely memory-holed; even most anti-genocide people dont’ know about it.
