GAZA CITY, GAZA—Following conflicting accounts of a horrific attack on a Gaza hospital, officials from the Israeli Defense Forces released a new statement Wednesday that claimed it was you, the reader of this very article, who committed the act of terror.

    Genuine question - 500 people died, right? Did that actually happen, and was it a result of this?

      500 would be an insane death toll even for an actual JDAM strike on a building. Currently, however, nothing indcates that this was an Israeli strike. Their bombs are massive compared to the ones Hamas is using. The parking lot which the rocket hit is barely damaged except for the damage caused by fire. If it was Israeli bomb there would be a massive crater on the ground. There is some DISTURBING NSFL FOOTAGE that seems to indicate, that there indeed was several casualties in that strike but I’d guess we’re more like talking of tens, not hundreds of dead.

        Oh wow, I haven’t seen pictures of this until now (only clicks your first link thanks very much) but I assumed it was a parking “building” (sorry I don’t know the correct English word). But this is just a parking lot.

        It’s almost like the footage you see whenever there is a Tesla fire

      It is VERY doubtful if 500 people died even with a direct hit that leveled the building. Supposedly, from what I can tell, (from 2 sources I’m not completely sold on yet), it was an 80 bed hospital. So it would be extremely unlikely that 500 people would be there even on it’s most crowded day ever.

      And it appears general consensus is the rocket hit the parking lot, so casualties would be even less…

        That seems so short sighted. Like why make something up that will absolutely be refuted within hours? It just makes people not trust you.
