Six Feet Under Gaza: The Claims of Genocide vs reality

Updated: Nov 11, 2023


I grew up in a family that had a funeral business. My family buried people for a living.


We would arrange everything from the body collection from the death site all the way through proper burial.


Sadly I understand the death business. So please excuse my blunt calculations of metrics and numbers regarding the devastating business of life loss.


Death tolls around the world


When you search for numbers of deaths and casualties of any country, or a war, the numbers are very clear.


Every death is accounted for. Every deceased has a name, a burial plot, and family members.


When you search the records of deaths in any country on earth it will tell you exactly how many lives were lost. When you look through their population documentation every citizen is accounted for.


For example:


306,887 Syrians were killed under their ruler regime.


170,1000 Ukrainians killed during the war with Russia.


20,093 Israelis were killed in wars and terrorism since 1948.


1,400 on Oct 7.


We count each death. We know the name of each person. And we burry them with dignity in a designated plot.


And it takes time- it took us weeks to find and collect all the bodies and body parts, perform DNA tests, identify the bodies, report to the families and perform a proper burial.


In Gaza


Death tolls are counted in thousands and reported on the spot within minutes.


No names provided, no search for bodies and identification process, no burial records.


It took Israel to find, collect and count 1,390 bodies in a month.


They reported 10,000 in a week with no actual collection, identification or burial records.


When you search for How many Palestinians were killed since 1948, a chart shows up full of random numbers, ‘Unknown’ marks, huge estimated number gaps, and a lengthy explanations that includes Palestinians in practically all other wars in the Middle East.


There is no clear body count of life loss, names, or anything humans would seek to know and share regarding the death and burial of loved ones. And very clearly, anyone can write anything they want online and on Wikipedia,


So what are the real actual number of Palestinians deaths?


They don’t know. They don’t count. And this chart is not anything the world could ever consider or accept as a legitimate count of life loss. Neither would a Palestinian, or the family members of the ones who died.


And don’t tell me that they don’t track and report deaths properly because they don’t have a country- they need to actually collect and bury bodies. They can count graves.


We as Jews knew our life loss numbers and names of each person who died at the Holocaust, before we had a country, and we have lists of all dead from all around the world.


We have been recording every death in every single war, terror event or accident. And we have a burial place for each person, or at least a memorial place with their names.


Also don’t tell me that they can't capture it - they have Al Jazira and endless propaganda videos showing deaths of mostly innocent children, yet no records of names or proper burial sites.


There is just no record or proper count of life loss for the Palestinians anywhere.


So I guess the number of actual deaths and life loss of Palestinians will forever be a mystery, and will forever remain a secret buried six feet under, along with their terror tunnels.


But, if you truly care about Palestinian lives, you would care enough about documenting their deaths. And not in a screaming video- but in an actual commemorating human burial experience and name count.


And if you truly truly cared about Palestinians lives you would at least seek the truth in knowing exactly how many people us “Nazi Zionists” killed, so you can confidently March in your antisemitic propaganda marches.


Right now not even one Palestinian or Pro Palestine supporter will be able to simply tell you the number of people who actually and factually died in their claimed genocide.


And if you accept this fabricated death chart - even if you calculate all reported numbers as is and add them all up, nothing would ever figures wise count as genocidal in world affairs terms.


But all lives matter right? So why does it really matter how many Palestinians exactly died.


When we have thousands of people marching across the globe enthusiastically blaming Israel in genocie, it matters.


It is a very dangerous, and a vindictive inciting pursuit of Jews - who actually went through a real, factual and documented genocide with sites still preserved by Germany.

Even just visually, it sure looks more like a genocide on the Israeli side.
