But this is the first source I've seen that tries to separate out the numbers of combatants vs. non-combatants.
A key element of the Palestinian strategy is to conceal combatants within the civilian population, and then to indiscriminantly attack noncombatant civilians. Then when an attempt is made to counter attack, they cry "genocide". The distinction between combatants and non combatants is made only when it is useful for propaganda purposes.
