There's very little chance the Israelis hit a hospital…

The ME wants full scale war with the West…


From listening to Morons like Lindsey Graham and Nikki Haley it certainly seems like America is the one itching for war. Didn't Janet Yellen just say "we can afford 2 wars". Insane.

Talking about this conflict is impossible because both sides just say everything their side does that normal people would consider horrific is fake. And there's plenty on both sides.
what EXACTLY has been "fake" from the Israeli side?
Additionally, the idea that this all just started relatively unprovoked is a lie, both sides have been killing civilians from the other side for decades.
This is such bull**** and only a reason for you to hold onto an anti-Israeli view point. Show me one time Israel has killed Palestinian civilians unprovoked and I'll show you a hundred of the Palestinians doing it to Israelis.


Ok. From times of Israel - 151 Palestinians died in the conflict last year (PA claims 167), versus 27 Israelites. Most estimates of the deaths this month have Israeli deaths at 1,500 and Palestinian deaths around 3,000.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/2022-shaping-up-to-be-deadliest-for-israelis-and-palestinians-in-years/amp/

Excerpts from the article:

Several bystanders have been killed amid the gun battles too, such as Al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh, who was accidentally shot dead by an Israeli soldier during a raid in Jenin in May.

On Sunday night, a 16-year-old girl, Jana Zakarna, was apparently shot dead by an Israeli soldier as she was on a rooftop in Jenin, amid an armed clash between troops and Palestinian gunmen.

In the cases of Abu Akleh, Zakarna, and Omar Assad a Palestinian who had a heart attack and died after being arrested and later abandoned by troops Israeli officials and even the army have apologized for their deaths.

But there have also been Palestinians killed in murkier circumstances, such as Ammar Shafiq Abu Afifa, an unarmed 19-year-old student who was shot dead after running away from troops who sought to question him. The IDF did not say he sought to commit an attack or was otherwise wanted for questioning.

Excerpt from United Nations report in 2022

Reiterating the United Nations steadfast support to both sides in achieving a sustainable peace, he outlined recent developments on the ground, noting that a total of 14 Palestinians were killed between 8 December 2022 and 13 January 2023, and another 117 were injured by Israeli security forces. Israeli settlers or other civilians perpetrated 63 attacks against Palestinians resulting in 28 injuries, including six children. According to Israeli sources, five Israeli civilians and four security forces personnel were injured by Palestinians in attacks, clashes, the throwing of stones and Molotov cocktails, and other incidents. Palestinians perpetrated a total of 89 attacks against Israeli civilians during the reporting period.


Who provoked it?

Again, show me where Israel has just killed Palestinians because it was a Tuesday?


What? Every death I just listed was the result of something that happened earlier. This conflict has been ongoing for 70 years. You wouldn't consider going to some family farm that they have been on for generations and just forcibly taking it over and forcing them off provocative? That doesn't justify Palestinian murders of Israelis but 99% of the violence in this conflict and every conflict has some form of internal justification from the perpetrator. I bet you think every time or most of the time an Israeli kills a Palestinian it's totally justified. That's…laughable is the wrong word but it's very ignorant. And what BLM is saying the other way is also ignorant.

Regardless - The most important thing in this conflict is that America doesn't take a side and get ourselves into another Middle East mess. We need Trump, the only candidate that doesn't seem to be pounding the war drum.




If the argument you're clumsily attempting to make puts you even remotely on the side of the group who just massacred 1,500+ civilians, including infants and grandparents, you should probably stop.


Yeah that's why my position is America should stay out of this conflict - because both sides are doing that. Been to both Israel and Palestine and talked to Christians in the area about it.

I'm hearing we need to get a speaker so we can pass a multi billion dollar aid package to Israel and Ukraine, here's a novel idea - let's cut spending and reduce our debt instead.



Isn't the median age in the Gaza Strip 18 years? If so, 1/3 is quite remarkable. But for a different reason.

watching the local "military & police" push back rioters is laughable. Do you see these guys? throwing rocks and backing up like it's their first game of paintball or something. that's an absolute joke of security. we see exactly why our military has to train all these countries. i think my kids and their airsoft buddies could do a better job.

wow- such a huge bomb crater from a massive dropped bomb...

oh right- actually NO crater at all. and no damage to actual buildings.

exactly what one would expect to see from a Islamic Jihad homemade rocket which failed in mid flight. only an idiot would believe that 500 people were killed here. or a Hamas supporter.

believe me, if those "military and police" really wanted to stop the crowds,

they would be opening fire with automatic weapons as they do all the time in Libya, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq.

the fact is the "authorities" are plenty happy with US installations being attacked.

Just my personal feelings, but I don't feel sorry for this religious group. Over the last 1400 years they have caused so much pain and suffering to so many around the world.

They enjoy it when others suffer. We see it in their faces, in their eyes. But when it hits them, they want sympathy and help and try to guilt you about it. The world has seen far too much.

They never cared about non Muslim children. Why should anyone care about their future terrorists?

Israel needs to give them a 6 hour warning to evacuate, target hospital, then tell them this is what an Israeli bomb looks like you idiots.

If they're going to lie and fabricate crap, then at least try a little harder.

There's a lot of crow eating that should be going on over this one.

So, I'm busy at work and admittedly barely keeping up. Can someone fill in a few blanks?

1-Rocket hit near or at hospital
2- Rocket seemingly hit in parking lot and video this morning shows this.
3- Hamas immediately blamed Israel and precipitated the same from other ME countries and Palestinian sympathizers.
4-Evidence has seemingly shown this was propaganda and that Hana's actually failed a missile launch and knows it (internal communications support this)

Did the hospital actually explode and are there daytime pics if this?

Has there been any confirmation of anywhere close to "500 casualties"?

The entire narrative that this was an Israeli strike crumbles in the light of day. First, Hamas' (or Islamic Jihad', same difference) rocket didn't hit the hospital, it landed in the parking lot. So it did NOT hit the hospital proper. First lie debunked. Next, the absence of a crater is further evidence that this was caused by Hamas' "friendly fire." Israeli missiles leave deep craters and there is none in the parking lot. Next, video evidence shows the terrorist missile breaking apart mid-flight, followed by the explosion next to the hospital. Vectoring shows where that missile originated, and it didn't come from Israel. Finally, that exchange between terrorists trying to figure out what just happened is final nail in this BS story's coffin.

None of that is going to matter.....they lie has already been spread around the world. No one is going to retract their headlines.

There will be another distraction today or tomorrow to get this off the front pages and forgotten by Saturday morning.

Everything is correct except there wasn't an explosion. I saw a bunch of videos being passed around last night on twitter that seemed to show detonation of a bomb, but there is no crater, no buildings were leveled, and no windows were blown out. What it does show is that a rocket fell in a parking lot and caused a small fire.

3A) Western media gladly and gleefully attributed it to an Israeli attack based solely on the word of Hamas, a terrorist organization.

And this AM listening to CNN and MSNBC talking heads have these exact pieces of evidence spelled out to them and the final comments were basically "we'll never really know if it was ISRAEL or not that bombed that hospital though".

The media and academia are the root of the problem. Pro Islamic Jihad, anti Semetic. Oh, and pro Democrat Socialist Party. See the correlation here?

Fix the MSM and academia as a start.

one other correction-

Israel believes it was a missile that failed as part of a missile barrage from Islamic Jihad, not Hamas.

it's hard to keep up with the different terror organizations in Gaza.

Your summary is correct.

Video and audio evidence this was a failed rocket. Including recorded evidence with hamas leaders is was a jihad rocket that misfired. Casualties are nowhere near 500. My guess looking at the video would be a max of 50.
