You are reading very selectively (and I think fir a reason):

> From 2004 to 2014, these attacks have killed 27 Israeli civilians, 5 foreign nationals, 5 IDF soldiers, and at least 11 Palestinians[11] and injured more than 1900 people.[12] Their main effect is their creation of widespread psychological trauma and disruption of daily life among the Israeli populace.

Please at least try to stay true to the facts, even if you are not willing to steelman the other's arguments.

Technically they killed more than 28 total people, although I agree with the notion that whether it's 28 or 40 doesn't really move the needle very much.

> You are reading very selectively (and I think fir a reason):

I've wrote what is in Overview section in the article. Which is "The rockets have killed 28 people and injured hundreds more."

> Please at least try to stay true to the facts, even if you are not willing to steelman the other's arguments.

Please don't imply intentions that were not mine. When I skimmed the article, I literally didn't see the information you mentioned. What would even be the point of that "selective reading"? Are we discussing a difference of 10-20 people against a figure of 17,000? This doesn't make sense.
