Their coverage is biased, but it's factual. And the fact that you dismiss it just shows your own ignorance.

Your garbage article is probably the worst piece of writing I read this year.

Oh and again, the "children" argument. Yeah no shit people die in war and as i stated earlier, hezbolla uses child soldiers just like hamas. What is your point?

So using children as soldiers is bad, but killing children is good. Yeah, there is nothing more to talk about with someone like you.

Category Grade Bias F (54%) Fallacy B- (81%) Misleading Info B (86%)

Very reliable source.

But as said, i didnt say there are no civilian casualtys, i literally quoted the official numbers, but those numbers are completely normal for a asymmetrical war.

And yes! Killing children is great/s where the fuck did you read that? That's the opposite of what i said.

The fact check link for my source isn't working correctly, the grade says F in everything but all the fact checks are true or mostly true, so tat is actually just a discredit for your fact check site... (errors can happen, the site is probably fine)
