It may be worth listing a set of euphemisms and synonyms that can get past the vigilance of those trying to police discussion of what may be happening in #gaza - just as in the early stages of the American civil war freed slaves were referred to as 'contraband of war' or #contrabands . Since all civilian deaths have been ascribed to collateral damage or inadvertence then both dead and seriously wounded civilians should be described as #collaterals and #inadvertents .
