50% as in the barely armed males that were killed like fish in a barrel

> Women, children (ie, younger than 18 years), and older people (ie, older than 64 years) comprised 56·2% (95% CI 50·4–61·9) of violent deaths

How many of those people under 18 are boys over 15?

Militias rarely have age restrictions.

Which still doesn't justify the slaughter or starvation of children

I am not sure what is the point you are trying to make with these stats.

It is clear that if half of the killed were militants, the other half is not by definition.

50% of casualties being civilians does not mean it is a genocide.

if you slaughter civilians and label all males as combatants you conveniently get a near 50% militant death rate

don't play dumb, there's a reason israel is not letting foreign media into gaza and slaughtering local journalists at a rate never seen in history of war
