The IDF and Shin Bet security agency on Saturday night named 19 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror operatives that it said it killed in an airstrike Saturday morning on a Hamas and Islamic Jihad command room at the Taba’een school in Gaza City.

As of now the Palestinian health authorities haven't released the names of those 81 that are allegedly dead. Usually they don't take long at all. In the meantime the IDF has released the 19 terrorists that totally weren't hiding inside a school and are now dead. I assume most of those 81 don't exist.

Why do you need to see a list of dead people's names as if people aren't dying when there's a war going on?

Hamas is known to inflate the number of dead and injured, cry wolf over and over and, in general, lie in order to make Israel and The IDF look bad. All while painting themselves as poor, innocent sheep.

The first thing they did was to accuse The IDF of killing over 100 children by dropping a 2 ton bomb in the middle of a school.

As we can see, neither the number of dead, the munitions used or the demography that was targeted (Hamas militants vs children) are factually correct.

We are, in fact, at war with a terrorist organization. Targeting them while trying to minimize civilian casualties is acceptable and is what's actually happening.

It's "known" that Tim Walz quit the military so he couldn't see combat, even though that isn't true.

That's the thing about stuff that is "known."
