No, there are certainly innocents in Gaza. However, there are also innocents in Israel. You may have chosen your side, but I am not fighting in this war. Frankly, it’s consistently been too difficult to determine the truth.
edit: Actually, that’s not true. I find I do get involved in the information side of the conflict, except I have to consistently fight against both of the sides. It’s very troubling.
Last time I checked you were claiming israel is not an Apartheid state so you might want to work on that information thing a bit more before providing insightful comments
If you can find me an unbiased assessment of it, from people that acknowledge Israel’s claims to exist by its 1967 borders and for people of Jewish descent to move to within those 1967 borders if they want, I happily will.
It means I’ll read any information about Israeli Apartheid policies from any Zionist-neutral source. I will, however, be very wary of anti-Zionist sources or pro-Zionist sources, unless the source is being critical of its own position.
I’m not foolish enough to think there’s a side in the war that won’t lie.
I understand it is a high standard, but it’s the same goalpost I had to begin with. I’m neither pro-Israeli, nor pro-Palestinian, I’m just loyal to good factuality as best as I can find it, and I’m loyal to peaceful co-existence and a two-state solution, preferably by the 1967 borders.
Every Jew has the unrestricted right to immigrate to Israel and become an Israeli citizen. Individuals born within the country receive citizenship at birth if at least one parent is a citizen. Non-Jewish foreigners may naturalize after living there for at least three years while holding permanent residency and demonstrating proficiency in the Hebrew language.

Not on its own, no. The UN is composed of members, and its personnel can come from anywhere and be of any opinion.
There is no such thing as a single perfectly reliable source. The UN is better than most, but its still composed of people.

and former Israeli Attorney General Michael Ben-Yair – have also all called this apartheid
A former Israeli AG can be presumed to be both knowledgeable, and have a pro-Israeli bias, so if they are being critical of Israel then that is very credible. Several other cited sources are credible as well. Thank you for sharing that.

don’t know if this will be helpful or not, or even what you asked about but:
Wikipedia, Israeli citizenship law says the following:
the policy makes a distinction of Jews and non-Jews and says getting a citizenship requires a different path based on your religion. also, “Actually I was a bit wrong … so here are the corrections” by u/Aceticon
Is the UN a high enough standard.
