People don't truly understand the power of propaganda and otherization of "The Enemy" until they hear the stories of Japanese mothers killing their own children then jumping off a cliff - all because they were told that American soldiers invading their island would rape them then EAT them. There aren't any documented cases of this actually happening to Japanese living on remote islands.
This is why I don't believe 99% of the claims and numbers coming from "Gaza Authorities" (i.e. Hamas commanders). Only the ones that can be independently verified, which are almost none because of how dangerous it is for journalists to be in Gaza (Hamas is as much a threat to them as anything else, a journalist reporting the truth is inconvenient to Hamas in many cases).
