Oh there’s no question. My friend’s daughter reported that at her freshman orientation - you know, where we learned about the campus, and dining options, and clubs, etc. - they were all given an anti-Israel booklet, full of lies.

If the latest number '86,677' is true. .

Jan 30, 2026.
According to Iranian sources, the death toll from the regime’s brutal crackdown has reached 86,677. (i24News)
If confirmed, this would place Iran’s repression among the deadliest state crackdowns in modern human history, outside the context of war
Mr Sinha @Mrsinha:
Iranian sources cited by i24News put the death toll from the Iranian regime’s brutal crackdown at 86,677. Yes, close to 87 thousand people have lost their lives.
If confirmed, this ranks among the deadliest episodes of state repression in modern history outside war.
Yet the pro-Palestinian Left-liberal ecosystem is silent.
No hashtags. No moral outrage.
Their “human rights” activism isn’t principled, it’s selective, ideological, and deeply hypocritical.

Is Iran's massacre of civilians crimes against humanity?
UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mai Sato, gave an exclusive sit-down interview with ABC News reporter Nassim Khadem.
Published 5:30pm AEST, January 20, 2026
[...]
"I would put the minimum estimates to be 5,000 plus. That's sort of the more conservative organisations reporting that figure. But also, last day or so, Iranian authorities have actually said it will be around 5,000 deaths.
So I think that is the minimum. And then I've also received reports up to 20,000. And as you say, they have been largely through courageous doctors with access to Starlink being able to provide information of people who they've received in hospital but not every region in the hospital, not every doctor has the courage or the capacity to be able to provide that information.
So if what we are receiving it estimates at 60,000 or 80,000 I think the actual number once we have more information, will be significantly higher."

Raha Nik-Andish | In Tehran.
London Review of Books.
Jan 30, 2026 — On 8 January I sent a video of the protests in Iran to a friend in England. ...
On 13 January, Iran International television announced that over the course of just two days, twelve thousand people had been killed. They broadcast images from the Kahrizak Medical Forensic Centre, showing bodies piled on top of one another. BBC Persian spoke more cautiously of thousands of deaths. Iranian state television at first announced a figure of two thousand. Two weeks later, some unofficial estimates place the number killed at more than 36,500.
In the absence of reliable information, rumours became a parallel reality. Numbers were whispered in queues, repeated without certainty but with conviction. What everyone knew for sure was that death had entered daily life.
I stopped driving for Snapp!. It didn’t seem safe and I was scared to go back to driving nights. But one day I called a Snapp! car and took it to a café to meet a friend. I asked the driver to turn the radio on. ‘I’ve boycotted radio and television,’ he said. ‘They assume we’re idiots and lie to us.’
His main job was driving an ambulance, he told me, but that didn’t pay enough to survive. He had been on duty on 10 January. ‘Just me alone,’ he said, ‘I transported four hundred bodies to Kahrizak.’
He spoke calmly, almost mechanically. ‘The scenes I saw will stay with me for the rest of my life. Over those two days – 8 and 9 January – they killed so many people that bodies were stored in mosques. We were only operating around the Tehran Bazaar. When they ran out of vehicles, they used hospital ambulances. I can say this comfortably: they killed 100,000 people.’
He told me about a woman who came to collect her husband’s body. According to those accompanying her, the man had leaned out of a window to see what was happening and was shot in the head. His body fell into the street. His wife and daughter watched as security forces put his body in a black bag and carried it away. The wife ran downstairs. Her husband’s blood was still warm on the pavement. The daughter had stopped speaking.
When the woman came to retrieve her husband’s body, the driver told me, the authorities demanded payment for the bullet. She showed them a cloth soaked in her husband’s blood and said she would bury that – and they could keep the body.

Jan 2026: Zero famine deaths and 60,000 newborns – IDF rebuts claims of Gaza (so-called) "genocide". IDF confirms estimates of 70,000 fatalities in Gaza war, including 25,000 terrorists, as Israeli military says not a single famine death could be confirmed, while number of live births tops pre-war level.
That it estimates that roughly 70,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the war with Hamas in October 2023, similar to the figures provided by the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry.
'However, the IDF and the Gaza health ministry differ sharply in their estimates of the number of civilians killed during the war. Hamas officials have claimed that approximately 70% of the 71,400 deaths reported by its health ministry were women or children – a figure challenged by independent analyses, most of which place the number under 50%.
The IDF has estimated that at least 25,000 terrorists were killed, according to The Jerusalem Post, reflecting a 1.8 to 1 ratio of civilian to combatant fatalities. That places the Gaza war within the range of major contemporary conflicts and roughly equal to an approximately 2 to 1 ratio reported in the war in Iraq.
Despite a campaign promoting claims of mass starvation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli military reported that it could find no evidence of a single death caused by starvation during the war.'
And:
'...if one accounts for around 10,000-12,000 natural deaths, based on the average number of natural deaths in the two years preceding the war, then one is left with about 60,000 dead due to the war and related conditions. The IDF claims to have killed around 25,000 combatants during the war, which leaves around 35,000 other deaths.
Aizenberg and others have noted that deaths by misfired Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad missiles are within those figures. The iDF recently revealed that about 13% of all rocket launches by the terror organizations in the first 6 months of the war were faulty, falling back into the Gaza Strip.
Additionally, deaths caused by Hamas reprisals against Gazans believed to be aiding Israel are also included among the “war dead.”
The IDF said on Thursday that it is working on its own evaluation of the GHM data integrated with its internal calculations of the number of combatants killed, although it gave no date for when this analysis would be published.
A report published by the Henry Jackson Society in early 2025 showed that the Hamas-run GHM had misrepresented the number of women and children killed in the conflict, claiming that over 70% of all deaths were in that category. That report found that during a roughly six-month period, from October 2024 to March 2025, just over half of all deaths were combat-age men.
That report found “extensive statistical anomalies, glaring inconsistencies, and a concerted effort by Hamas to inflate the number of civilian deaths – particularly among women and children – while systematically omitting combatant fatalities, especially amongst its own operatives.”
A previous report by the Henry Jackson Society even documented cases in which people killed by Hamas, or deaths of cancer patients, were included in the GHM’s list of war fatalities.
The GHM death figures have also played a part in accusations by international groups, such as the UN and affiliated nongovernmental organizations, which accused Israel of causing a famine at various points during the two-year war. In particular, several Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) reports were used to allege that Gaza was at the threshold or experiencing famine conditions.
The Israeli government, along with other analysts, pushed back against the claims, pointing out errors in the reports, which often followed from a failure to follow the IPC’s own methodology and guidelines.'
