I've seen articles that said 1,200 Israelis killed by Hamas and then the next sentence said 32,000 Palestinians killed....but didn't say by Israel.

The juxtaposition of those two sentences may lead some people to think that Hamas killed those tens of thousands.

I agree with you regarding headlines, but the article text itself should make it very clear that the vast majority of civilians killed in this conflict were killed by the Israeli Occupation Forces.
