      But you need to think like this: Terrorist attack in 9/11: 3000 deaths Terrorist attack hamas: 1300 deaths

      Antiterrorist attack 9/11: ~180.000 deaths Antiterrorist attack Israel: 11.000 deaths

      So its still 5% of the deaths of 9/11 dont play down the human rights violations of the US because of 9/11…

          Does it make it better that the US killed hundred of thousands in 20 years, than when killed in 2 years?

          Killed civillians are killed civillians, in a matter of 20 years or 2 this is irrelevant.

              The US killed 20-30 times more in Irak and Afgahnistan. And I would say that 20 years of war is another horrifying factor.

              If you look at the rate than /month israel killed more.

              But even if you look /year the 9/11 war with 20,000-30,000 deaths ist still much more compared to 11,000 this year from israel…

                This year. It started in October. Using your numbers, they have done half a years worth of murder in about 12th of the time, even with the USA drone striking weddings. Ones horrific, the other is a genocide.

                This all started last month, not in January, we don’t know what the per year murder rate is but we can assume it would be around 132,000 if Israel continues the way they are currently.

                  Yeah, you could assume, there you are right. But it still didnt happen, I hope they will stop any second, but thats just wishful thinking.

                  But just to see what the US did…

                  Israel could go on for almost 3 years like this and would have the same death toll then the US because of 9/11.

                  And thats sick. What the US did is sick, same as what Israel is doing now.

      Like I said before, I have an American public school education, so that’s more math than I can do, so I appreciate it. I also have no emotional intelligence, and the news isn’t telling me to be mad about this, so all I can say is that this is the type of bad emotion that makes your eyes wet.
