One Jew is worth vastly more than 29 "Amalek" according to the logic of Israel and its supporters. More like 52:1, according to the ratio of one of our posters on DU (2012 estimate). So using this logic, it's as if twice as many people died in Israel than Gaza... because Arabs aren't really people, according to this logic.

It's the same sort of logic that has resulted in some DU'ers being more upset about broken windows in Ferguson MO, than they are with the murder of one of "those people" by the police.
