HRW may very well be right here, but if the only investigation the police does after a homicide is talk to some witnesses... but you know, never actually check for fingerprints, or in this case... analyze fragments from the rocket, then I'm not going to go all in and say that they've done much of a report. How convenient that people act like this is all the proof they need without even reading what they actually examined.

Who the hell cares, Israel has killed a whole lot more innocent people, including thousands of fucking children. The Israeli government is a bunch of genociders.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Because the truth and facts matter when discussing moral responsibility. It doesn't absolve Israel of other acts of war harming civilians. But this matters when discussing Hamas's responsibility over the death of Gaza civilians.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

You will all nitpick minor details and put those who are oppressed (the Palestinians) over hot fiery coals for being potentially wrong whilst never laying a single ounce of doubt or blame on Israel, the ones conducting a god damn ethnic cleansing. I'm sorry I don't really care about arguing over this one specific instance of horror, (that which I never personally said was Israels fault by the way) when there are many thousands upon thousands of other instances that Israel boasts about murdering innocent people.

Nitpick all you want, but all of you are just pathetic if this is the tiny sad ant hill you die on while real people die.

Don't you bother to ask what happened to 1000 misfired rockets from Gaza?

(1200 something confirmed misfires from IDF, and almost 800 something from a twitch streaming bots that were scraping al Jazeera cams etc, some independent new reports on these too). Let's just say 200 rockets, don't you wonder where they landed and what happened?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

And the amount of rockets fired by anyone in Gaza is nothing compared to the sheer destruction Israel does.

People seemed to care a lot when they thought it was Israel's fault.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It was justified to think it was Israel, because they bombed that exact hospital before, and many others. And it's still a terrible thing because people died. But let's remember that this single event is a small compared to the rest of the genocide Israel is doing to Palestinians.

The Archbishop has called for Israel’s evacuation order on Gaza’s hospitals to be reversed. His call comes as an Anglican-run hospital in Gaza was struck by Israeli rocket fire last night.

That Anglican-run hospital is the one from the OP btw.

It wasn't struck by Israelis.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

I was talking about this particular point of the article: "The Ahli Hospital was hit by Israeli rocket fire last night, with four staff injured in the blast. Other hospitals have also been hit." Which was the same Ahli Hospital that we're talking about originally.

0.5% is a terrible genocide.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm sorry, do we have to wait for them to finish? We know their intentions, Israeli officials say it plainly, that they want to remove them all, make it uninhabitable where they live. That is the act of genocide, you piece of garbage.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I thought they only lied though. I guess you can always pick and choose which parts you believe.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

They do lie, they lie all the time. Yet when they talk about their bloodthirst for genocide, dumb motherfuckers like you say, "oh haha that's so funny they're just kidding!" Y'all stupid shits of course only believe lies. Talk about picking and fuckin choosing, my god you hypocrite.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

1 in 200 people. Yeah it definitely is.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well, according to al jazeera they dropped 6000 bombs - 4000 tonnes - from Oct 7 - Oct 12.

As of 2nd Nov the number was 25000 tonnes. Let's say that's 25000 bombs.

Pretty terrible death rate for that number considering the options available.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago

This motherfucker wants more innocent people killed, wow. Genocider.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Now that Israel just openly declares it is bombing and invading hospitals, the fog of war bullshit really doesn't matter anymore.

Maybe this one hospital strike was a rocket. What about all the other ones?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

All the other ones were literally illegally used by Hamas as bases of combat operations and storage of their weapons. Heroes don't hide behind injured vulnerable people in hospitals or behind children in their schools. Hamas deserves to be destroyed.

According to Israel, the one doing the war crimes. 🙄

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Regardless of whether you think it's justifiable or not to bomb buildings with both militants and civilians, it's not a war crime.

But beyond that, you're claiming Palestine isn't doing war crimes‽

[–] [email protected] -2 points 11 months ago

Israel claims these buildings are being used by both militants and civilians.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, so maybe you're right, maybe I did steal money from your purse, push grandma down the stairs when she got in my way, left the milk out over night, shit in Dad's shoes while high on meth, smoked crack in the alley, slapped all my cousins alphabetically, poured cocaine on the dog, but I swear, I didn't smoke crack in my bedroom and I don't like being accused of things I didn't do!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

My understanding is this lie was used by Hamas to isolate Israel from Arab nations where much of the public was frankly horrified by the brutal violence Hamas had aimed specifically at civilians. So no, it wasn't just "the one relatively inconsequential thing," it is a lie that has had serious consequences.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Considering the fact that Israel is now bombing and invading every hospital, what difference does it make?

If this was a lie then it was only a lie by a few weeks. Israel has fulfilled every accusation that Hamas has made.
