10. So, the short answer is "no"

The statement "I never accused PHM of fabricating data outright, I said they are not known for providing accurate data" is pure doublespeak.

You are heavily implying they are lying, and are known to lie, yet can't provide any examples. Does stealing supplies make the PHM corrupt? Sure, possibly. HAMAS are not on the side of the angels. It does not constitute evidence that they are fabricating casualty numbers. Again, not assuming PHM are saints, but considering it was Israel that just assassinated another journalist ( https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/5/12/infographic-the-journalists-killed-by-israeli-forces-since-2000 ), and it is Israel illegally occupying the West Bank, and Israel that has economically and militarily oppressed the Gaza strip for decades, and this was an air strike on an apartment building, virtually guaranteeing "collateral damage", I'd say there is ample evidence that Israel's hands are hardly clean.

But I know...HAMAS.
