Oh, Get Out! Hamas Lied About Casualties?

This is some breaking news, tell you what.

*insert eyeroll*

But it does make you wonder ‘why now‘ because it’s a pretty significant reduction in the category that they’ve shamelessly used for propaganda purposes this entire time. But that means a holy moly increase in the other, which is basically an acknowledgment that they’ve had an army in the field the entire time and playing their international collaborators/enablers like fiddles.

Naturally, this wasn’t done via public mea culpa. Nope. All the magic happens with a quiet adjustment of figures. A name change here, a complete erasure there, and suddenly it’s all better.

Hamas admits 72% of deaths are combat-aged men as it quietly reduces civilian death toll – report

Hamas quietly removed the names of thousands of Palestinians it had previously alleged were killed during the Israel-Hamas war, Salo Aizenberg, from the US-based non-profit organisation Honest Reporting told The Telegraph on Tuesday after analyzing Hamas’s March 2025 casualty update.

Hamas has previously claimed that 70% of casualties have been women and children, a claim no longer reflected in their recently updated lists, according to the research. Approximately 72% of fatalities are aged 13-55 and are men – the demographic category aligns with Hamas combatants.

“Hamas’s new March 2025 fatality list quietly drops 3,400 fully ‘identified’ deaths listed in its August and October 2024 reports – including 1,080 children. These ‘deaths’  never happened. The numbers were falsified – again,” Aizenberg asserted.

It’s an Easter miracle, no?

That Hamas’ own numbers prove the vast majority of those who were killed by the Israeli Defense Forces, contrary to the narrative so popular with American media and Hamas sympathizing protesters camping on Ivy League lawns, were…what’s that word again?

Ah. ‘Combatants.’ That’s it.

…“The demographics are the most important thing in all this. We’ve heard the claims that about 70 per cent of the deaths are women and children, and these lists, especially the most recent, show that’s complete nonsense,” he said.

About 72 per cent of fatalities aged 13-55 are men, which is the rough age range of Hamas combatants, Mr Fox said. “We know that Hamas uses child soldiers, and these statistics show clearly that Israel is targeting fighting-aged men.”

In previous conflicts, Hamas figures have often been corroborated by external organisations, Mr Fox said.

The Henry Jackson Society’s December report said: “The ministry of health, operating under Hamas, has systematically inflated the death toll by failing to distinguish between civilian and combatant deaths, over-reporting fatalities among women and children and even including individuals who died before the conflict began.

“This has led to a narrative where the Israel Defense Forces are portrayed as disproportionately targeting civilians, while the actual numbers suggest a significant proportion of the dead are combatants.”

Gosh darn, it’s hard to call it a genocide…well, okay. 

I guess it’s not that hard, but I meant doing it honestly. 

It is not a genocide when it was the bad guys shooting at you first that had you answering back.

I am on the board of Axel Springer that owns Político. I consider this article one sided Hamas support. It fails to mention that the airstrikes were aimed at eliminating top Hamas military and thar Israel was successful at doing so. It also quotes casualty figures given by Hamas… https://t.co/TDWcfCaHYQ

…It fails to mention that the airstrikes were aimed at eliminating top Hamas military and thar [sic] Israel was successful at doing so. It also quotes casualty figures given by Hamas that are not believed to be accurate.

So many busted narratives and so little time.

So many dead teenagers might also be why things are getting dicey in Gaza for Hamas.

They are experiencing an ebb in their popularity.

New massive anti-Hamas demonstrations in northern Gaza are demanding an end to the war that the terror group started. They want Hamas to step down and “get out” – Men, women, the elderly, children, and wounded folks came out, desperate to make their voices heard! pic.twitter.com/pqWZJixeym
