  • The hospital strike seems more and more like Hamas/Islamic Jihad fucking up. Loads of open source investigation going on, none of it seems to suggest a big bomb.

  • The images of the destruction of buildings and structures by Israeli strikes post hospital look catastrophic with buildings flattened and completely pulverised.
    Probably many civilians killed also.

    The hospital appears to be largely intact, though the car park looks completely torched, the theory that it’s a large rocket that failed with most of its fuel still inside dropping out the sky makes more sense to me, than Israel targeting a hospital car park full of civilians.

    If the hospital was an Israel target, I would expect there would just be a massive crater and nothing left.

    No offence but this is a very naïve expectation.

    If you were going to bomb a hospital then deny it, maybe you'd be a bit more subtle than just dropping a big bomb on it?

    Israel has a track record of using cluster munitions, and they've just got a fresh delivery from the US:

    Ground burst cluster munitions are exactly the kind of bombs that would leave a scene like there was at that hospital where there was relatively little damage to buildings but lots of dead people.

    I'm not saying Israel definitely did it. We don't know. But what I'm seeing is a lot of people accepting Israeli analysis when it's not like they haven't got a vested interest.
