Now that Israel just openly declares it is bombing and invading hospitals, the fog of war bullshit really doesn’t matter anymore.
Maybe this one hospital strike was a rocket. What about all the other ones?
Yeah, so maybe you’re right, maybe I did steal money from your purse, push grandma down the stairs when she got in my way, left the milk out over night, shit in Dad’s shoes while high on meth, smoked crack in the alley, slapped all my cousins alphabetically, poured cocaine on the dog, but I swear, I didn’t smoke crack in my bedroom and I don’t like being accused of things I didn’t do!
My understanding is this lie was used by Hamas to isolate Israel from Arab nations where much of the public was frankly horrified by the brutal violence Hamas had aimed specifically at civilians. So no, it wasn’t just “the one relatively inconsequential thing,” it is a lie that has had serious consequences.
Considering the fact that Israel is now bombing and invading every hospital, what difference does it make?
If this was a lie then it was only a lie by a few weeks. Israel has fulfilled every accusation that Hamas has made.
It’s also a large part of why people believe everything Hamas says (e.g. death tolls) while also refusing to believe anything Israel says.
All the other ones were literally illegally used by Hamas as bases of combat operations and storage of their weapons.
According to Israel, the one doing the war crimes. 🙄
Ignoring any conclusions you have made from Palestinian reporters, what war crimes have Israel committed?
Regardless of whether you think it’s justifiable or not to bomb buildings with both militants and civilians, it’s not a war crime.
But beyond that, you’re claiming Palestine isn’t doing war crimes‽
Lol this group is like “doesn’t matter” all of a sudden.
Wish I had the energy to go back to the old threads and reply to all the “IDF is lying” comments.
I guess you would have a point if Israel didn’t routinely bomb civilians and didn’t routinely lie about it.
They don’t routinely lie about it. They pre-drop little fliers that say “we’re about to bomb here; if you don’t want to die you better leave” and then they come back in a couple of days or weeks and bomb. What on Earth would they lie about? “Wow, a bomb went off right where we dropped leaflets saying it would, but it definitely wasn’t us.”
The only bombing they actually did lie about is this one, where Hamas beefed a rocket launch and struck one of their own hospitals and Israel said “yeah, we were active in the zone” before anyone knew it wasn’t an Israeli weapon.

They used to do that. They aren’t in this war.
I’ve never understood how dropping a flyer on someone’s house letting them know they’re going to be bombed stops Hamas. What’s stopping Hamas from fleeing as soon as they see the flyer?
The only person then impacted by the bombing is the guy whose house you bombed.
The fact you’re getting downvoted so much is just another reminder how feelings matters more than facts to certain groups of people.
All sides in this war suck but the constant dogpiling against Israel when Hamas uses child labor to dig their tunnels is telling of how people view this conflict.
“I’m going to rob your house and shoot all your family in 2 hrs okay?” I know you are innocent people that’s why I told you I’ll kill you in few hours /s . Wtf is this logic in first place!? It’s terrorism.
Plus, so many kids and families died under these bombs and found cut up under rubbles because Israel doesn’t even do that any more. Even before the war, they used to tell hospitals and huge residential buildings to evacuate in 1-2 hrs or be bombed. I can’t even get up to work in 1 hr notice let alone evacuate a house or a full building.
First it was obviously Israel that purposefully fired at the hospital and a huge deal, then it slowly changed to “doesn’t matter, it’s Israel’s fault anyway for starting the war”.
It’s incredible
Younger generation totally fine with Hamas attacking civilians but angry that Israel retaliated and attacked sites that launched rockets is pretty astounding.
All up in arms that Palestinians are dying but not once asking why all the Palestinians were fine with Hamas digging tunnels and hiding military equipment in their backyards.
No one is fine with Hamas causing the death of 1200 Israelis, and everyone called them terrorist organization that chose violence instead of diplomacy after being hopelessly seized for decades in an open-air prison. Similarly, Israel killed 13000+ which were mostly civilians including 5000+ children. How do you not understand that killing civilians is terrorism just like Hamas did? How do you not understand Israel kills more than 10 for every 1 Israeli killed? How do you not understand those humans have been living under oppressive occupying apartheid regime which generated those groups that chose violence? while Israel is the legitimized government supported by the world strongest countries which commits war crimes? On every type and magnitude of comparison, the IDF and Israel genocidal right wing government has committed more war crimes and are more evil than Hamas. The only solution is be a rational human and admit that they both should go. There will be no justice and Israel will still remain an oppressive occupying apartheid if Hamas disappeared and Israel government stayed the same.
Who the hell cares, Israel has killed a whole lot more innocent people, including thousands of fucking children. The Israeli government is a bunch of genociders.
It was justified to think it was Israel, because they bombed that exact hospital before, and many others. And it’s still a terrible thing because people died. But let’s remember that this single event is a small compared to the rest of the genocide Israel is doing to Palestinians.

I’m sorry, do we have to wait for them to finish? We know their intentions, Israeli officials say it plainly, that they want to remove them all, make it uninhabitable where they live. That is the act of genocide, you piece of garbage.

I thought they only lied though. I guess you can always pick and choose which parts you believe.
Nah it’s a pretty good start, especially since they’re using the deaths to kick everyone out of their homes into smaller and smaller areas, or forcing them into other countries. It’s how the genocide on native populations has worked everywhere else, too, so we already know the playbook.

Such as?
Also, what’s your definition of native?
Well, according to al jazeera they dropped 6000 bombs - 4000 tonnes - from Oct 7 - Oct 12.
As of 2nd Nov the number was 25000 tonnes. Let’s say that’s 25000 bombs.
Pretty terrible death rate for that number considering the options available.
Don’t you bother to ask what happened to 1000 misfired rockets from Gaza?
(1200 something confirmed misfires from IDF, and almost 800 something from a twitch streaming bots that were scraping al Jazeera cams etc, some independent new reports on these too). Let’s just say 200 rockets, don’t you wonder where they landed and what happened?
And the amount of rockets fired by anyone in Gaza is nothing compared to the sheer destruction Israel does.
No, I’m not talking about missiles from Gaza to Israel. I’m talking about Hamas missiles that fell in Gaza. Recently they have reached over 10k launches towards Israel, doesn’t that make you curious to know how much destruction they caused themselves?
Because the truth and facts matter when discussing moral responsibility. It doesn’t absolve Israel of other acts of war harming civilians. But this matters when discussing Hamas’s responsibility over the death of Gaza civilians.
You will all nitpick minor details and put those who are oppressed (the Palestinians) over hot fiery coals for being potentially wrong whilst never laying a single ounce of doubt or blame on Israel, the ones conducting a god damn ethnic cleansing. I’m sorry I don’t really care about arguing over this one specific instance of horror, (that which I never personally said was Israels fault by the way) when there are many thousands upon thousands of other instances that Israel boasts about murdering innocent people.
Nitpick all you want, but all of you are just pathetic if this is the tiny sad ant hill you die on while real people die.
So glad the world’s #1 childkillers didn’t kill these particular kids. Props to the IDF and the Israeli government for not killing these specific people for no reason.
Why would the Jews do this?
