Israel suggested that it may have been a Hamas rocket misfire that set off the explosives being held on hospital grounds, although an alleged video of the incident made it sound like a missile to me.
Rest assured that if Israel's claims do pan out, 100% of people who blamed Israel will continue to do so.
I refuse to get drawn into this stuff as it's happening because:
a) There's nothing I can do to make a difference in time
b) I have no idea what's actually happening without going there myself.
Who knows what happened or even if it happened? Professional journalists? I trust them as far as I can throw them.
Let them fight it out. I have no idea what's happening because I haven't been paying attention because these are not my people. If it's still a big deal in a year, it's worth looking in to.
Yes, they hide their military assets in civilian areas. No, you can't ever make anybody on the blue side of the aisle acknowledge that it's ever happened before.
I used to give to Doctors Without Borders because they claimed to be politically neutral but stopped when they started telling European countries how to deal with immigrants.
I see they've continued on the path to self-destruction.
Sure, but we've seen that bullshit go the other way in the last year. It's plainly obvious how fake and gay the outrage is.
Ukraine sets up a motor pool and munitions depot in a mall they take over, it gets decried as a horrible warcrime when Russia bombs it does nothing and it blows up because of Ukranian incompetence.
Israel bombs a hospital. Oh well. Except instead of hitting exclusively warfighters, they also hit civilians.
It's the same fucking playbook, but one side is an atrocity and another is acceptable casualties.

Israel funded Hamas so it is indeed their fault regardless.
So true. Nobody trusts any “news” anymore
I sure don't.

I was going to say "government," but that could possibly just be repeating what you said.
I mean even if they do buy it. They'll say: "well, the resistance was just trying to defend its lands from the Zionist occupiers".
Doesn’t Hamas set up their bases in hospitals?
Yes, they hide their military assets in civilian areas. No, you can't ever make anybody on the blue side of the aisle acknowledge that it's ever happened before.
Kinda reminds me of the human shields during Iraq war. They were mad when the Iraqi govt wanted them to stand in front of military targets
Gaza is tiny and under military siege for 20 years. Should they put them in the open?
Fuck you.
Cause putting them in hospitals is so much better?
True. Another hospital was Hamas' headquarters
And yet when Israel hit it, the human traffickers at Doctors Without Borders condemned it.

It's worse, they're actually running one of those boats smuggling migrants to Europe.
Any politically neutral organization can eventually be bullied into revealing they're leftists if you put enough pressure on them.

No arguments there
Didn't the Israelis tell the Palestinians to leave because they began to flatten Gaza?
