On the one hand, bombing a hospital is pretty brazen even for Israel, especially as your most important ally is en route for a visit, and the explanation of a Hamas rocket going astray does seem plausible. On the other hand, I'm not inclined to trust the word of a country that has proudly cut off food and water for 2.2 million people for over a week now. You don't get the benefit of the doubt when your actively committing war crimes. Also it may not have been intentional, a IDF pilot could have just missed a target or gone rogue. I'm sure no UN inspectors will ever be let in to examine the scene to make a determination, so we'll probably never know the truth. It probably doesn't matter much, the dead are dead either way, the grieving families will grieve either way, and all sides of the conflict will believe what they want to further their political ends, including Hezbollah using potentially using this as a justification for a broader conflict. It's just tragedy on top of tragedy.
Israel bombed a Palestinian hospital in 2014, what was their initial response?
The Israeli military denied initial reports that its forces were responsible for the strikes, saying instead that the bombing was the result of rockets misfired by Palestinian militants — while Hamas cast blame back at Israel.
Sound familiar?
Shocker, it came out that they did in fact bomb the hospital and killed children. Israel will always blame Palestine for its mistakes.
So we’re calling a mid-air exploded rocket a bomb now?
It is not plausible it is a Hamas rocket.
Only modern munitions have the power to destroy hospitals and kill hundreds of people.
If Hamas had such rockets, they would be launching them at Israel every day.
