    Which is why if it was them and an accident (or deliberate) it would be covered up. Things happen in war and the narrative that results from actions is as important as supply chains.

        Is the hospital the giant expanse of black or the slightly larger giant expanse of black? You’re touting this like it proves anything when its a screencap from a news show that has composite effects on the screen. We dont know what happened and this video isn’t proof one way or another.

        Hamas are utter bastards, what isreal is doing is also inexcusably horrendous. Both are true statements. The only side that doesnt suck in this ‘war’ is the side of slaughtered innocents, which sure seems to be easily forgotten in a rush to be smugly superior over which side committed the heinous atrocity we get to care about today!

          The hospital is the big building that blows up when the rocket hits it. I’m glad that you’re hesitant to jump to conclusions. You should be calling out the top-level comments stating or implying that Israel is responsible. You should be calling out the main article of this thread for stating that it was an Israeli strike. Since you’re so in favor of not mis-stating facts.

          What Israel is doing, fundamentally, is self-defense and there aren’t clear boundaries about where that crosses the line. I won’t endlessly support Israel no matter what, but right now it is very clear that they wouldn’t be doing any of this if there wasn’t an existential threat due to a terrorist organization that demands their complete destruction. If there is cancer in the body, you kill good cells trying to destroy the cancer. But you must destroy the cancer, or be destroyed yourself. I’m sorry that innocents have to die, but when Hamas is destroyed, then the Palestinians can actually have peace, if they want it.
