So this writer expects readers to believe the Hamas Death Ministry stats instead of a Wharton data scientist and these Data Scientists for the Social Good, who did a masterful vivisection of Hamas' Mark Twain-like damn lies of the third kind (lies, damn lies, and statistics): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFT0jtRSlSc

OCHA brought 10450 dead Gazans back to life on May 24. Cumulative deaths of men repeatedly decrease to feed the increase in women and children deaths. Smoothly increasing death rates violate the inherent asymmetry of war and the misnamed Gaza Health Ministry, which Hamas removed from calculating fatalities, replacing it with "media sources", then admitted it has no idea how many civilians deaths occurred (https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2024/04/09/hamas-run-gaza-health-ministry-admits-to-flaws-in-casualty-data/).

The list of the statistically impossible goes on and on.
