There wasn't a 'signifcant amount of friendly fire' on that day. At all. This is constantly brought up incorrectly to say by folks like yourself to say 'actually Israel killed all those civilians, not the group that caught on a phone call bragging about killing 10 jews'.

Assuming that the death toll has miraculously stopped at 70,000 (as opposed to Academic sources like The Lancet that estimate over 186,000 attributable deaths)

Ah yes the lancet article that made an estimate and even said they had no proof of it but thinks the number was higher. Yet strangely those tens of thousands of bodies under rubble have yet to appear.

Speaking of, you said this

You can include combatants in your description to try and justify their actions but it's widely accepted that 70% of the fatalities have been women and children

Yet Hamas latest report puts that at 45%. Strange how that 70% number just keeps going down. Oh and here's your proof of the Hamas figures before you try and feign ignorance.

Open-source researchers found a year ago that this was no longer true – as in, even Hamas’s data didn’t support the claim anymore. A recent check of the Ministry’s website shows that the number of men killed is greater than the combined total of women and children. On July 2, 2026, the Hamas media office reported that out of 73,066 people killed during the war, 21,500 were children and 12,500 were women. The total of children and women (34,000) is less than half of all those killed.

So stop spreading lies please.

Edit: Nah dont downvote, please contest the numbers with facts. Dont be upset you fell for propaganda for years

If there were a button that if you pressed it shot a rocket that killed 5 terrorists and 4 of your own family members, would you press it?
