No you are changing the statement yourself. The statement is

Hamas just hasn’t been taking civilian noncombatants as hostages like Israel has been doing.

Israel is widely kidnapping mostly innocent civilians whereas Hamas very much targeted military for kidnapping.

This is as obvious as the lower than 2/3 civilian casualty rate for Hamas whereas israel has a far higher civilian casualty rate.

Sources? Do I even want your sources at this point....last time I asked for evidence you gave me a verbal statement by the prime minister and that was good enough in your book. You really don't need much convincing when the evidence aligns with your bias, do you?

Last time you got a source you denied reality and pretended that "no that doesn't count". I'm not sure why you are bringing this up it only makes you look bad.

Israel social security data reveals true picture of Oct 7 deaths

The final death toll from the attack is now thought to be 695 Israeli civilians, including 36 children, as well as 373 security forces and 71 foreigners, giving a total of 1,139.

I'm realizing that either your intentionally ignoring what I'm saying or English is not your first language.

Your standard of evidence was a quote by Benjamin Netanyahu

For honest people one off quotes do not constitute evidence.

So yes: I reject your standard for proof because it is very low
