Sowing confusion to deflect blame is Tel Aviv’s usual propaganda strategy.

    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.”

        But that’s why I’m thinking that it was Islamic Jihad that made the mistake. If they are caught lying, a few powerless Palestinians will be upset. Nothing will happen to them.

        If the IDF did this and lied about it, it would harm Israel’s relationship with the UK. Think about it: Israel has more to lose by lying.

          I see. This social aspect is something I don’t really consider in the news, you’ve taught me something.
