Sure, you can point to some urban warfare during WWII but for the most part it was maneuvering armies in the field. That’s where the big casualties were at.
Nonsense. There is always high civilian loss in urban areas. The level of loss is the only question. Here, the numbers come from Hamas, who admit that they add their fighters to the numbers. How many fighters? They claim not to know. Israel says that they killed 13,000 Hamas, so it’s the only number we have. So, of the around 30,000 deaths reported, 13,000 are actually Hamas. In a dense urban environment.
This is just flat out, totally, and utterly wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Berlin

Solid rebuttal with a crazy amount of supporting facts.
