Legitimate target, and they even sent an msn message to the janny to warn the decent less scummy Palestinians to get out .

Trogdor Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 There can be no justification for that. That is utterly abhorrent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Israel say it was a Hamas rocket that went wrong and they would never target a hospital. Conveniently forgetting that Archbishop Justin Welby tweeted to the world that Israel hit the same hospital on Saturday (its run by the church). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think an Entebbe-style raid is feasible here, or certainly not a successful one. And surely freeing the hostages in, say, a prisoner exchange loses them any leverage with Israel. Dreadful for everyone involved except for Hamas and Israeli hawks. A prisoner/hostage exchange deal along with a ceasefire would be a huge victory for Hamas, so it's not going to happen without a miraculous outbreak of rationality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as if they accidently mislaid them. They were forced to leave. Edited October 17, 2023 by beefybake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy McJagface Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Middle Eastern leaders starting to pull out of meetings with Biden now.

Netanyahu and his cronies only have one move available to them. Which is to plough on regardless. After the colossal intelligence failure anything else will be seen as weakness for the strongman. It's compunded by the fact that Israel doesn't recognise the ICC either, much the same as Russia in that regard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 France24 reporters have looked into a clip the Israeli Defence Force posted earlier and have concluded that the Israeli soldiers shoot 4 people who are unarmed and have surrendered in the clip. Bidens meeting tomorrow will have some agenda if they are going to try and get things back from the brink. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Israel blatantly committing the most appalling crime and then pretending it was the other side is straight out of the Putin playbook. If Hamas had access to missiles capable of that kind of damage, then they would have been launching them at Israel long before now. Hopefully Netanyahu finds himself up in The Hague one day, but that will never happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Apparently Israel announced they attacked the hospital because there was Hamas people hiding in it, just before they deleted it and claimed it was Islamic Jihad with a faulty missile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 For the Israeli explanation to be credible you'd have to believe that an Islamic Jihad rocket was fired from southern Gaza with the intention of hitting Haifa, an awful long way, and accidentally dropped early and hit a Hamas arms cache on the roof of a major hospital in Gaza City. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
