How can anyone not be sure, with all the videos, the reports from the NGO, hell even the bragging from the IDF
Because it's contrary to the narrative they already believe. Facts don't change feelings. At least not at the pace they should.
I didn't make my point well enough. I'm going to copy a response to another commenter here and hopefully that helps.
The point is people can hand waive a lot to feel better about the world they live in. I'm not going to complain because it took this other thing to get them to the realization. I'm just going to welcome them in. In fact this is the exact kind of meme I would run if I was trying to push people away from the BDS movement.
