Israel kills fewest innocents but takes most heat

 "...There isn't another conflict in the world where the fatality rate among civilians is as low as in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."

From Ben-Dror Yemini, an Israel journalist, researcher and speaker. 

Professor Richard Falk is a top UN official. Recently he declared that Israel wreaks carnage upon the Palestinians, harboring what he termed "genocidal intent." If we want to understand the relationship between the industry of lies and the discourse of human rights, we could do worse than examine the case of this bad man, perhaps a Jew, who is an embodiment of this link.

Let us gauge the genocide claim. In 2013, 36 Palestinians were killed, according to the human rights organization B'Tselem. At least 30 of those were either involved in clashes with IDF soldiers or were members of terrorist organizations. Only a few innocents were killed. The death of each one of them is to be deeply regretted. Yet one should add that there isn't another conflict in the world where the fatality rate among civilians is as low as in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In other conflicts it is estimated that between 60 and 90 percent of fatalities are innocents. In the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they are a minority.

 In fact, the annual fatality count in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is lower than a daily terror casualty toll in Iraq, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and other countries, where 1,153 people died as a result of terror attacks. This does not include the daily toll from the massacre perpetrated by the Syrian regime.

That doesn't stop people like Harry Fear from coming up with  propaganda like this, claiming that all the Palestinians killed in Operation cast lead were "civilians".

Lies and propaganda from Harry Fear

Harry, even Hamas doesn't pretend that's true, admitting that between 600 and 700 of its militants were killed -consistent with numbers reported by the Israel Defense Forces.

Israel's dedication to protecting the lives of civilians was noted by Col. Richard Kemp,  who declared ,  before the United Nations

"...Based on my knowledge and experience, I can say this: During Operation Cast Lead, the Israeli Defence Forces did more to safeguard the rights of civilians in a combat zone than any other army in the history of warfare.

Israel did so while facing an enemy that deliberately positioned its military capability behind the human shield of the civilian population. "
