If reporting is supposed to give us a sufficient background to make judgments, why does Hoyt consider UN officials as credible arbiters of casualties. The UNRWA has a long shameful history of anti-Israel activities, if not outright cooperation with Hamas. And it’s not like its record has been any better in the ...
