The letter posted on Israeli journalist Amit Segal channel to 184,000 followers says that “the nation of Israel will stand up bravery to strike at its enemies,” according to a translation of the Hebrew. It goes on to justify targeting sites even “when the enemy hides behind a human shield.”

    I have seen no official statement from Israel stating they were the ones that bombed Al Ali hospital, only the reporting of WP and NYT indicating that there was an iron dome missile that may have caused the blast. Did I miss something?

      Israel’s story of a Hamas missile was disproved.

      If Israel had another explanation, they would certainly be pushing it.

      Simplest explanation is usually the correct one.

        So your previous comment claiming Israel stated it was an accident was made up based on an inference you’re making, got it.

          IDK why you’re looking to excuse an atrocity.

            Now you’re strawmanning. You presented your unverified take as fact which I rightfully questioned. I don’t question Israel intentionally bombed refugees yesterday because they admitted to it. That was an atrocity and I don’t excuse it. Is it too much to ask for facts?
