8. And how many of them were school children that you presumed to be in the school building in question?

You are citing the numbers given by the hamas agency via Al Jazeera. Neither are known for their impartiality or accuracy. Neither gives account for the number of Hamas operatives among casualties. Neither mentions Hamas' criminal culpability for using Gazan civilians, including children, as human shields.

And yes, perhaps none of the children among the casualties were in schools. Unless you can show legitimate statistics to the contrary, you have no standing to suggest they were.
