GAZA DEATH Toll Debate: Expert Challenges Bidenās Acceptance of Hamasās Inflated Figures
ā During his State of the Union address, President Biden referred to Gaza death statistics from the Hamas-controlled health ministry. These figures, alleging 30,000 fatalities, are now under scrutiny by Abraham Wyner. Wyner is a well-respected statistician from the University of Pennsylvania.
Wyner proposes that Hamas has reported incorrect casualty numbers in its conflict with Israel. His findings contradict many accepted casualty claims by President Bidenās administration, the U.N., and various major media outlets.
Backing up Wynerās analysis is Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who recently stated that 13,000 terrorists had been killed in Gaza since IDF intervention. Wyner questions the Gaza Health Ministryās assertion that most of over 30,000 Palestinians who died since October 7 were women and children.
Hamas launched an invasion into southern Israel on October 7 resulting in approximately 1,200 fatalities. However, based on Israeli government reports and Wynerās calculations, it seems likely that the actual casualty rate is closer to ā30% to 35% women and children,ā a far cry from the bloated numbers provided by Hamas.
