      Israel is claiming that some rockets launched by Hamas towards Israel went off course and hit the hospital.

      I remember Russia staging a "Ukrainian missle attack", but they were so bad at it that the damage was on the side of buildings facing away from Ukraine. Should be pretty easy to check that here too...

          No, this was something that happened sometime last year. I tried to find one of the articles but I wasn't able to. There was a lightly damaged building, with damage from an angle that couldn't be hit by a weapon coming from Ukraine. There were pictures showing "American" weapon fragments. It was comically bad/obvious. It was reported by Russian State media iirc.

        The rockets Hamas fires can barely punch a hole in a wall, and this explosion basically leveled the whole hospital. It's just a ridiculous claim.

        Yes let's give the genocidal ethnostate the benefit of the doubt here

        Adding to the dogpile here: IDF and Israel Twitter profiles posted videos that "proved" this, then people quoted old tweets showing that video was from the last year

                Israel does seem to have a track record of bombing hospitals, though...

                  I don't doubt that. This is not me defending Israel. This is me trying to figure out what's actually happening.

                    Well, look, we're all just a bunch of assholes on the internet. We can pretend like we have the answers but we don't. What I can say with some certainty is that Israel has a track record of bombing hospitals and the hospital that was bombed in this case had already been bombed before by Israel. You can take from that what you will.

                    How's that working out for you my dude? Did internet leftists actually fire the missile? Do you expect to find an official statement by Hamas or the IDF posted here any time soon? What possible research are you doing by posting here?

                    Fucking pointless.

                Yes we're biased. And so are you, and literally everyone else.

                  My stance on the situation briefly: State of Israel shouldn't have been put there in the first place. Zionists are religious extremists and I'm against them. Palestinians on the other hand had their land forcibly taken from them which I don't agree with, and they have every right to be pissed about it. Hamas on the other hand is religious extremst group aswell and they're indiscriminately murdering innocent civilians (as are the jewish extremists aswell) so I'm against them too. The only people I'm in favour here of are the millions of innocent civilians on the both sides who'd just want to be treated fairly and live peacefully.

                  So I'm biased yeah, but it's a bit more nuanced than that.

                    How about the PFLP?

                    Are they religious extremists too?

                    And what indiscriminate slaughter? And what do you define as a civilian? If you are illegally occupying territory and are expelled by force, you are not a civilian you are an occupier, a settler, a colonizer.

            Ah yes because a 1,000kg bomb that took over a thousand lives in one go "might not" level an entire building. And despite reddit-logo actually celebrating, it could have been an accident.

                Yeah the "field of bodies" video is pretty easy to find even if you're not looking for it. I don't blame you for not wanting to see the shit, It's terrible. But don't come with some fake claim that only cars can be found. "Leveled" is a word used to mean "made rubble" sometimes and "made to be as useless and dangerous as rubble" others. This is probably the latter time, but I haven't seen videos showing the remains of the building honestly. I don't search for this shit tho
