President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren’t behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.

Biden responded that it was “the data I was shown by my Defense Department.”

Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.

    It’s kind of funny to me listening to people who advocate for separate states. I mean, sure, do it. But don’t expect that to stop religious zealots from firing peace rockets at each other.

      It won’t stop anything, a two state solution is a joke.

      The best case scenario now is for Palestinians to assimilate into other Muslim countries, it’s not ideal but it’s probably the way fewest people will die.
