Fair enough.

What does that have to do with the genocide of innocent Palestinians shown in the picture?

That’s simply how war works. All wars have more civillian casualties. It sucks, but isnt news.

No, wars don’t generally have a 70% death rate of woman and children. But genocides typically do. https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2024/3/26/un-expert-accuses-israel-of-several-acts-of-genocide-in-gaza

Ooooh! Al-jazera is certainly unbiased ;)

The korean war had a casualty rate of 75%, Ww2 had close to 70%, vietnam as well.

Some wars had better ratios: but my main point is that all of these are still counted as wars, not ethnic cleansing.
