I've cherry picked because this video has been cherrypicked, and arguing with someone who's just repeating its a video and just take what they call it as fact.
Its like me saying "this is a video of Israel discussing and enforcing the best way to protect Palestine civilians while they protect themselves", putting up a video of a few people in a uniform talking and expecting everything to comment back how amazing Israel is - I would expect everyone to cherry pick the issues with me doing this, especially when all I do is repeat "but its a video".
You cherrypicked because you have an agenda to push and it is obvious. First you try to sow doubt by "just asking questions" and then "cherrypick" a wikipedia article, trying to gaslight people who literally just watched a video.
Then link the full video. "They cherry pick!!!!!", but bring nothing to the table to believe your statement.
Im not the one who posted the original video.
Its like people sprouting "prove God doesn't exist" - im not the one saying this is a fact and need to back it up.
Saying that, one other poster did provide me with some pretty good insight with sources - ignoring before/after video possibilities the evidence they provided is pretty damming to Israel, and even without it they would have alot to answer for.
