Gosh, it's almost like they're the occupying power with an overwhelming weaponry advantage.

> Another measure related to assignment of responsibility is a simple count of mentions of “Hamas” versus mentions of “Israel”.

And how many mentions of Gaza/Palestine?

Israel : Palestine/Gaza :: Hamas : Likud/Netanyahu

> It describes Hamas’s October 7 attack followed by Israeli military violence and mounting Palestinian casualties, while largely omitting Israeli casualties post-October 7, Hamas fighter casualties, and post-October 7 Palestinian violence.

Sure. Because they're been almost zero civilian deaths in Israel post-October 7. Are they supposed to invent some for balance?

A middle school science teacher would reject this writeup for irreparable flaws in methodology.

This reads more like a personal essay than a research paper.

And the first sentence with an actual citation , which makes claims of SA, has been debunked . Much work has been put into attempting to find actual evidence for that claim, and none has been surfaced, it was a fabrication. The original reporting retracted. Why didn't the author include that?

It's bizarre, isn't it? I remember seeing what happened on 7th October and thought there's just absolutely no way anyone can convince themselves that that didn't happen, was justified, or that these were in fact the good guys. And yet somehow people manage it.
