An IDF soldier giving a speech set the record straight when an an anti-Israel heckler interrupted him and claimed that 40,000
Palestinians have been killed in Gaza.
The soldier disputed the accuracy of that number, noting that Hamas continually refuses to reach ceasefire agreements which would require it to release the hostages and disarm, while the international community fails to pressure them to do so.
“We did not ask for this war. They started a war with us,” he added.
“If you don’t want people to die, don’t start a war.”
