    This is probably just a use of different words to not sound repetitive.

    Before anyone starts screaming at me. I’m not taking sides.

    The whole thing is fucked and I don’t know enough about it all to form an educated opinion. Ethnic genocide does appear to be what’s happening with my limited knowledge and that is insane, but even in this day and age I am not surprised in the least. That’s as far as my opinion goes on the matter.

      This is probably just a use of different words to not sound repetitive.

      Then the BBC could have said something like “More than 500 people were slain in Gaza.” Keep in mind that the BBC are journalists; they literally do this for a living.

      Even if it was an innocent mistake, which I 1000% do not believe it is, it would still be an egregious fuck-up regardless of intent.
