President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren't behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.

Biden responded that it was "the data I was shown by my Defense Department."

Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.

The hospital is already full.

My friend, we're taking about people being displaced and running away from being bombed to hide and get treated in a hospital, and your response is "No way more than 50 humans were in the parking lot"?

They were not keeping hundreds of people in the parking lot, that's an absurd claim.

You living in your safe place can't imagine how much people would go to a hospital after being bombed.

What happened was so horrific that you can't even imagine it.

You're so willing to believe Hamas propaganda about the numbers. No, 500 people did not die from the failed rocket launch.

Look at this blast zone, you really think 500 people were in there:

This is not a giant wall mart parking lot, this is a tiny intersection with a dozen cars in it. No, there were not 500 people in there.

Yes, displaced people hiding from being bombed can be piled up in a parking lot to an extent you apparently can't imagine.

I can't believe you've taken in this Hamas propaganda so completely.

No, there is zero chance there were 500 people in that tiny ass parking lot full of cars, you could not fit them in there.

Just look at the pictures of the place, zero chance there were 500 people there.

After not so careful consideration, I've decided to trust your claim. 500 people died because of hamas's sheer incompetence and then used as a propaganda.What a tragedy.

Hamas doesn't have rockets that can kill +500 humans in a single strike.

If they had that, Israel would be toast.
