    If you’d bother to look up the numbers you’d understand the question where you got the ‘millions’ bit

    Where did you get that from?

      you are probably looking at it like this conflict started just last year.

      its been going since the 40s on and off. ever since the nakba, last i checked, estimates range from a little less than a million to a couple million. theres a reason for palestine’s young demographic today.

          i dont really remember, but they were counting not only the direct deaths, by guns and soldiers, but also by starvation and disease indirectly caused by the conflict.

          you might be able to find it, im not ypur nanny.

            But of course! The I-can’t-remember-where-I-got-this-but-it’s-totally-true-trust-me-bro source I’ll have to find myself. How I could have ever doubted your words, I don’t know

              as opposed to the i-said-nothing-but-somehow-am-correct dude

              if you understand anything about this conflict ‘millions’ shouldnt be a surprise, but sure, my point still stands regardless of numbers (btw you didnt provide any).

              is deporting muslims worse than killing them?

                my point still stands regardless of numbers

                Then why did you bring them up

                Why didn’t you claim it was tens of millions?

                    I’m questioning the numbers you cite because I know some things about it

                    The fact you say they don’t really matter gives us a clue you don’t really care
