    They are asking for the source of your statement that less then 0.1% of the victims where valid targets

    Hezbollah is the source. That’s three times I’ve said so. What about that is still unclear?

      When asked for a source, you’re asked to link to a specific statement or report. If you just say who is your source without providing a link, it looks like not only do you don’t have any, but that you don’t have any idea of what you’re talking about.

      It’s extremely damaging to your side, no matter where the truth is.

        Sounds like a real pain in the ass, and a bad-faith way to move a great deal of burden to someone you’d like to shut up. I told you what the source was; why don’t you do your own fucking homework?

      The same Hezbollah that claim this was an “act of war” and in nothing I can find give any indication of non Hezbollah casualties? Once again I can link the translated statement from Hezbollah to support this, but since you for some reason will not neither will I.

      Oh and to show this is not a lack of effort by myself here is a link to the information on Vitamin D toxicity

        Why would Hezbollah report non-Hezbollah casualties? They’re not the government of Lebanon.

          You wrote that fewer than .1% of casualties from the detonations were not hezbollah. When asked for a source you wrote: hezbollah. When pressed for a source you’ve now countered: “why would hezbollah report that?”.

          We don’t know; it’s your premise. Where did you get that stat?

          Didn’t you say they were the ones who reported your non-Hezbollah casualty figure though?

          You could just link to what you’re talking about, that might clear up any confusion.

            I don’t have any “non-Hezbollah casualty figures.” I’m assuming that any casualties Hezbollah doesn’t claim are the civilians.

            You could just link to what you’re talking about

            I’m still not understand what you’re finding unclear.

          Yes, and that would be why we are wondering how that would be proof of a lack of non-Hezbollah casualties.

            Well, if you subtract the Hezbollah casualties from the total casualties, there’s hardly any casualties left.

            Are you asking for a source for arithmetic, or something?

              Oh good thing you told us where that info was then. Its not like the numbers of victims are still unknown or unaccounted for. Its also great that you provided all that evidence of “guilt” for everyone injured.

                en. Its not like the numbers of victims are still unknown or unaccounted for.

                How many are those? Why would there be any unaccounted victims at all?

                  It’s hundreds of explosions, some of which were in cars (presumably causing car accidents) and crowded areas. It was terrifying. Victims may not want to come forward since it connects them with a group of people being targeted with fucking bombs, something they personally witnessed. They don’t want to be next. Or they don’t want people to think their deceased loved one was a terrorist.

                    A person injured in a crowded area would be rapidly attended to and accounted for, especially by now, two days later.

                    If there’s an unaccounted victim, it’s somebody off by themselves with a Hezbollah pager and thus not a civilian. So this argument actually works against you.
