libs would be enamored with the subservient relationship between a british butler and a rich corporate heir
gotta justify capitalism as meritocracy somehow
I found it by googling the specific numbers, which is what I should have done before

it turns out they’re math estimates, but reasonable ones. They give the numbers as ranges.
I edited my comment

I linked a video that claims to give updated estimates, which are very high, but I’d like to confirm that those are the ministry’s real numbers
do they have cumulative estimates for the conflict anywhere?
This video claims their current conservative estimate is 95,040 dead and 227,760 injured, with another 24,750 dead from starvation, 42,000 missing and/or abducted by the Israeli military, between 20k–100k dead from the embargo on medicine, and around 255,000 dead from widespread illnesses and infectious disease.
**and around 380,000 buildings destroyed
***the numbers appear to be math estimates from this analysis published on electronic intifada

we’ve had a while to radicalize since then
anyone have a link to the current Palestinian Ministry of Health casualty estimates as of June 2024? Google search does not want to cough it up.
Her husband overthrew the government of Libya after cooking up a false “Iraqi WMDs”-style justification, and now Libya is a failed state with literal open air slave markets
lots of people who phonebanked for Bernie […] were […] Russians
read between the lines, lemmy users.
The president walked right up to them and talked them down with a show of confidence and legitimacy, with a crowd of supporters surrounding the building. Stunning
The US also waged a secret antivax campaign in the Philippines to vilify China’s vaccines, according to this Reuters article

biden is not the president, he’s the figurehead of the machine behind him
To clear up some confusion, the soldiers and police who were burned and lynched at Muxidi were unarmed. The government responded on June 3-4 with an armed crackdown. The armed crackdown also encountered firebombs, but @[email protected] was referring to the earlier attacks at Muxidi.
I would be careful with this particular point (emphasis mine):
The article does not say where the “half” figure comes from or give evidence for soldier deaths being that high. The estimate is only mentioned briefly in passing.
Some calculations have up to half the dead being PLA soldiers trapped in their armored personnel carriers, buses and tanks as the vehicles were torched.
Worth adding, to clear up a point of possible confusion — There is no evidence for deaths in the square itself. There were deaths elsewhere in the city that night, but these were violent clashes in which soldiers also died, and the death toll was in the low hundreds, not thousands. This is what we’re all saying in this thread.
