Buuut… how far is this from what he actually said? I’m sure it’s pretty close.

What did he say?

Ok, fine, after a quick look at news, these are the two main things said.

In regard to the 7000+ dead reported by the hamas run health department:

I have no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using.

Also:

I'm sure innocents have been killed, and it's the price of waging a war.

He's still calling it a war, I see. What an odd way to describe the indiscriminate bombing of innocent men women and children.

Well, I don’t really believe anyone’s numbers. BOTH sides of the Gazrael coin are fundi assholes, and will say anything to get international support (good luck).

As far as waging war. I mean, I know it’s a lot more complicated than “religion” but it’s basically a religious war… and I just have no sympathy for that. People die when you fight. Don’t fucking fight.
