Confirming these numbers is not a surprise. The important question is what gets done with these confirmed numbers. What real-world change gets made knowing this is fact, reality?

Well Israel would, wouldn't it, because it knows this is a gross underestimate. The real figure would be closer to 1.4 million. The admission of "70,000" (which is bad enough) is an example of "a limited hangout".

Thank you for another example of genuine journalism. I believe it would be accurate to emphasize that none of the criminal conduct you describe would be happening absent the strong support for it from the Jewish community in the United States.

The reality is that a wealthy, powerful, well-organized group in our society is not only getting away with murdering civilians in a foreign nation but is also actively dismantling any means by which they might be held accountable for their crimes in the present or future here or elsewhere.

What happens to a society when organized crime takes over the government? That is exactly what we are beginning to find out.

Well said. And, as Americans WE PAY FOR IT! We provide the belligerent Israel everything they need to make war on the Palestinians and anyone else in the region who might stand up against being run over. It is truly sickening. No matter who you vote for you get Bibi Netanyahu.

Other estimates say it's much higher.

A timely and essential reminder, unfortunately describing just the tip of an iceberg. The people of the world will remember for a very long time..
