In reply to the discussion: What I fear if/when Israel retaliates. [View all]AloeVera
(2,004 posts)21. How can I, since I had you on ignore as you well know.
You pose questions and comments you knew I wouldn't see. Totally fair.
I will do you this one last favour as you seem to have a problem with Mr. Google. The source for was in my post. Perhaps the acronym ACLED threw you off.
ACLED is funded in part by the U.S. State Department. It bills itself as "the highest-quality and most widely used near real-time source on political violence and protest data worldwide". If you have the inclination, peruse it at your leisure. Lots to learn, especially about Gaza's destruction.
As for the death toll, you know where it comes from. The one and only source, hobbled immeasurably by the hospitals' destruction. You just want me to say it so you can denigrate it.
It's getting real old.

I'm more focused on the election, which is the most important thing going on in the world right now.

I envy your bravery. You seem to fear nothing if/when Israel doesn't retaliate.

And what if Israel doesn't have a complete assessment of Iran's nuclear capabilities?
