Israel May Kill Every Palestinian Left in North Gaza, UN Official Warns
“What Israeli forces are doing in besieged North Gaza cannot be allowed to continue,” the human rights official said.
Israel could kill everyone left in Northern Gaza if its assault on the enclave continues, a United Nations relief official warned on Saturday
“Hospitals have been hit, and health workers have been detained. Shelters have been emptied and burned down. First responders have been prevented from saving people from under the rubble. Families have been separated, and men and boys are being taken away by the truckload,”
Msuya estimated that Israel’s actions in the north had killed hundreds and displaced tens of thousands. According to Al Jazeera, an Israeli siege on the north that began earlier in October has killed around 640.
“The Biden-Harris administration must stop the flow of U.S. weapons to Israel which constitutes a necessary step to halting Israel’s ongoing war crimes,” IMEU wrote on social media Saturday. “It’s time for an arms embargo now.”

That isn't how journalism works. If you say someone said something, they had better have really said that thing. You can't twist and rephrase it willy-nilly. For example, I could twist your reply to say:
"Caring about factual reporting is ridiculous"
— SamvegaThe entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying.
Quibbling over this not being a damning enough statement is ridiculous. Fuck anyone who pretends this isn't so bad.
Histrionics and distorting the truth doesn't help the cause at all. The other side can and will point to this as manipulation of the facts and use it to discredit the actual truth.

It's not a distortion of the truth to read "The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying" and write a headline of "Israel May Kill Every Palestinian Left in North Gaza, UN Official Warns". Especially when the context of 'at risk' is "What Israeli forces are doing...".
If I say your whole family is 'at risk of' being poisoned due to contaminants in the food in your house, a headline of "whole household may be poisoned" is completely accurate.
Unless you think 'What Israeli forces are doing... at risk of dying' means something else?

Of course it is, when you're claiming that somebody else actually said those words. If somebody tells you "XYZ" and you write that the person said "WXY" you don't get to put their name on it and attribute those words to them.
