Don’t think I have either. Since they likely removed their casualties and the Israeli response was disorganized, the numbers are probably hard to accurately determine.

As loathsome as these pro-Palestinian types are, I don't like the idea of suing these groups for publicly advocating for Hamas. You should be able to say what you want and not get sued as long as you don't slander someone.
They go far beyond simply "advocating" for Hamas. What you call advocating, when you throw in trespass, damage to property, resisting arrest all in concert, would you agree they're providing material support to Hamas? If so, that's a rather serious federal crime, which the feds care little about. A civil suit is nothing compared to that. Would you have described similar actions in support of Isis or al Qaida as free speach?
I'd note the US has survived to this day with two, more if you count fringe parties, Communist Parties and the Nazi Party have survived, I suspect in part due to the lack of organized violence.

Even the "new" UN figures, 24,686 people. The new data also specified that 10,006 men and 1,924 elderly had been killed, doesn't account for any combatants being killed. Since they're still working with the Hamas numbers.

In the midst of all this, and remembering the hostages, it should also be remembered that Israel has 135-150,000 displaced persons to deal with, per the UN. Kiryat Shmona only around 22,000 population, Beersheva just over 200,000 population. The number displaced won't be going down thanks to Joe. Expelling Jews from the land with violence and the eventual objective of emptying Israel of Jews is also Genocide, Joe.
No. Apparently only seven of the 103 countries we export to are being “examined”. We’ve approved transfers to Qatar and Lebanon yesterday. And of course the report will say Israel isn’t violating international or US law. The delays are political, an attempt to control Israel’s defense strategy in hopes of gaining more pro Hamas votes than they’ll lose pro-Israel votes in several states.
