Gaza death toll tops 5,000, nearly half of them children: Officials

www.aljazeera.com Gaza death toll in Israeli attacks tops 5,000, nearly half of them children

Children make up 40 percent of dead since Israel started bombing the enclave, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health.

Israel has continued bombarding Gaza’s south despite telling 1.1 million people in the north of the besieged enclave to relocate there ahead of an expected ground offensive.

“We were displaced from Tal al-Hawa to Rafah at the request of the Israeli army, and this is what happened to us. My son is a 3-month-old martyr,” the father of a child killed in an attack in Rafah told Al Jazeera.

Cryptofascists will cite dead children to justify slaughtering many times more children in retaliation, each and every time, because they see those that are killed in that retaliation as less than human.
- What does this have to do with cryptography??
  
  I assume you're joking but just in case you're not (or for the sake of people reading this that didn't catch it) by crypto- as a prefix I mean deceptively veiled fascist ideology that pretends to be something else or justified in some ostensibly politically acceptable way.

  Why assume he's joking? It's probably the first time many are hearing that term.
  
  Because I assumed that not many would immediately associate cryptofascism with cryptography.
  
  I was not joking. If you say "crypto" without specifying, then you'd expect cryptography.
  
  This chapter on photovoltaics says nothing at all about composiiton, foreground, perspective. What a useless book!
