    1.5% of the population has been killed. That’s a lot but 2% of the US died in the civil war

    The American Civil War ran from Apr 1861 – 9 Apr 1865. Four years

    The Gaza genocide hasn’t even been going for 6 months and it’s already racked up 3/4 of the deaths of the entire US Civil War. If it runs for 4 years at the present rate it will kill 12% of the population and half of those are children.
