Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

No, but drones typically hit targeted parties and things like weddings and all that kind of stuff.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

That makes sense, yeah.

Digital Social Hour

And drones are typically designed to conduct very accurate targeted strikes, and those tend to have people in them that are not combatants, right?

Digital Social Hour

So we now know that there is a measure that defines war, and the average measure for war is nine civilians die for every single combatant killed.

Digital Social Hour

So if you have a ratio of like 100 civilians per one combatant, I can make the case that's a genocide.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

That's a very high ratio compared to, again, we have to compare it to what?

Compare it to what?

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

Yeah.

Even during the war that before the ceasefire was enacted in whatever form was enacted, the reported civilian to combatant ratio in Gaza was one to one.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

Wow.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

One to one.

Digital Social Hour

It's a factor of 9x lower civilian death rate than the historically average number of civilian deaths in a war.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

So the question I would ask is, these are accurate numbers.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

Anybody can look them up.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

Nobody's hiding this information.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

It's just people are not aware of...

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

Comparing, right?

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

I mean, one of the maybe positive silver linings in this, and if there is such a thing, is that at least people are starting to understand how horrific and awful war is.

Digital Social Hour
Dimitry Toukhcher: How Truth Gets Erased Before Power Takes Over | DSH #1754

If you think Gaza is terrible because one civilian is dying for every combatant, imagine the average war where nine civilians are dying for every combatant.

Digital Social Hour

Okay?
