Kissinger passed his dark arts to Netanyahu on his way to hell.
This made me chuckle
Misleading post title: altered the original to remove the word “recent”
Here is the archived version before they edited the headline.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In just over two months, the offensive has wreaked more destruction than the razing of Syria’s Aleppo between 2012 and 2016, Ukraine’s Mariupol or, proportionally, the Allied bombing of Germany in World War II.
But from blast fragments found on-site and analyses of strike footage, experts are confident that the vast majority of bombs dropped on the besieged enclave are U.S.-made.
Israel vows to press ahead, saying it wants to destroy Hamas’ military capabilities following the militant group’s Oct. 7 cross-border rampage that triggered the war, in which it killed 1,200 people and took 240 others hostage.
Israel’s offensive has destroyed over two-thirds of all structures in northern Gaza and a quarter of buildings in the southern area of Khan Younis, according to an analysis of Copernicus Sentinel-1 satellite data by Corey Scher of the CUNY Graduate Center and Jamon Van Den Hoek of Oregon State University, experts in mapping damage during wartime.
Several experts pointed to two photos posted to social media by the Israeli Air Force at the start of the war showing fighter jets stocked with unguided bombs.
The level of destruction is so high because “Hamas is very entrenched within the civilian population,” said Efraim Inbar, head of the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security, a think tank.
The original article contains 1,093 words, the summary contains 212 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
riiight…
now I believe everyone can make a mental note of apnews obvious bias.
Honestly you’re kind of hilarious. Like seriously? AP news has an obvious bias against Israel out of all places?
the only things that prevent it being blatant lie is the argument-weakening words they must use such as “seen as”, “recent” and “experts say”
The only reveal you’re doing here is that of your own bigotry.
I very doubt it even comes close to the destruction of WWII.
Scale-wise not perhaps, but on percentage of destroyed buildings in a particular (small) area it’s right up there I think.
Given that more than 80% of people have been displaced and in 2 and a half months almost 1% of the population died, pretty sure it’s beyond it already, proportionally speaking.
It shouldn’t be a race to be honest, but I get your point, the article is quite vague on why it thinks it’s “one of the most destructive military campaigns in history”.
I mean is it? It states its basis pretty clearly.
Yeah, it’s not even the most destructive of the decade, but it’s sure the most popular.
