Israel's spin about hospital massacre quickly comes apart
Israel's spin about hospital massacre quickly comes apart
Sowing confusion to deflect blame is Tel Aviv's usual propaganda strategy.

I'm not reading a blog from "electronic intifada", just like I'm not reading the rants section of "holy land settlers .net".
The IDF is wrong. Hamas is wrong. They are both wrong. This is not a contradiction.
Good for you, condemning all sides from your ivory tower so you can maintain moral purity.
So! What do you think Hamas should have done? Vote? Start a petition? Post about it on X?
The best way I've seen it put was that "Israel's response goes beyond the scope of defense"
“Israel’s response goes beyond the scope of defense”
Yeah... since 1949.
Here's an incident Israeli feds almost certainly faked. And you're like. Both sides bad.
Do you think the IDF bombed an Anglican hospital? Yeah, it is run by the Church of England.
If the IDF bombed it, it would be a huge deal to the UK if they kept it secret.
WHAT HAS THE ANGLICAN CHURCH SAID?
Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury and head of the Anglican church, said: "This is an appalling and devastating loss of innocent lives. The Ahli hospital is run by the Anglican church. I mourn with our brothers and sisters."
After hearing earlier in the week that Israel was demanding the evacuation of all hospitals in Northern Gaza, it was clear that this hospital was bombed as promised. Claims that Hamas did it are clearly diversionary propaganda.
This is a pro Palestinian site. What do you expect they would say?
Don't know... maybe the same kind of propaganda bullshit we always hear in such conflicts.
Oh, wait. No. Because they don't need to when Israel is indeed contradicting itself constantly and links to sources and screenshots of quickly deleted official social media post are entirely sufficient without needing to spin the story...Wouldn't be surprised if Israel did it and covered it up. Wouldn't be surprised if the Palestinians accidentally blew it up or did it on purpose. No way of knowing. Everyone involved is gonna lie.
I'm not entirely discounting the possibility that it was a Hamas rocket accident, but claiming that an Israeli attack on Gaza was actually a hamas misfire is SOP for the IDF. The idea that hamas would do this intentionally is absurd though.
The electronic intifada, yeah that's not going to be biased propaganda at all /s
This source might not be the best but I'm following these details and I think a more reputable source will cast doubt on the legitimacy of the situation Israel and this hospital has painted. There seems, to me, a good chance this hospital bombing was faked / or the details were heavily skewed as a propaganda piece.
Reuters: What we Know about this Hospital Strike
-
Reuters said IDF fired a strike at a Palestinian hospital causing 500 deaths.
-
Comms come out where a "Hamas agent" spills the beans about details saying Hamas did it, and other Hamas agents are confused.
-
Israel has posted and asserted misinformation about this situation. They may just be lying reflexively.
-
Videos of this hospital parking lot seem to show a lot less damage than the reported ammunition (JDAM) And the size of the explosion. We see a few cars worth of damage. Some cars seem fine. There was fire in the hospital though too?
-
Nonetheless this bomb went off in Northern Gaza, where Palestinians have been ordered to evacuate. Which is logistically impossible and there's nowhere for them to go.
