Looks like evidence has been published, and at least partially verified by OSINT groups (in the linked article)

    Uh… take a look at this.

    Maybe not 100% Israel, but a good 99.9%.

    Also quick reminder that Hamas rockets can’t cause the scale of destruction that happened to the hospital. This is much more believable from an IDF airstrike.

      At the very least, you should look at all evidence given to us before making a judgement.

      Alone that you are saying “Hamas” rockets shows that you have not really dove into the topic. Because not even Israel claimed it was Hamas, but Islamic Jihad, which is a distinct group. Furthermore, they also had an argument regarding the increased damage.

      I suggest you look at what we know first, before you make a judgement like “99.9%”. This disinformation shit happens on both sides and it must be stopped. The situation doesn’t get any clearer by people doing this.

        Yeah, fair enough. Palestinian rockets in general don’t have that kind of explosive capability, but I said Hamas because saying “Palestinians” incriminates too many people, which was probably not a smart decision now that I think about it.

          Yeah, thanks for your insight. I don’t fault you for being angry at Israel, I am too. But all the more reason to stick to the facts and don’t criticize Israel on loose grounds. There are enough crimes we know they did, and it’s less than productive to make something we don’t know for sure is their fault into their fault only to have facts blown up in our faces.

          Sticking as close a possible to the facts, consider information of all kinds, even if we don’t like the people, it’s important in this disinformation war raging on the topic. We can be better than the people who still repeat the false 40 beheaded babies.
