    Sooooo what’s the excuse this time, Israel?

    Hamas is in a school?

    The camera looked like a bazooka in the drone’s camera?

    Reporting on events is Hamas activity?

      They just recently killed three of their hostages, mistakenly identifying them as a threat.

      Netanyahu said this was an unbearable tragedy, but I can’t stop wondering if they misidentified three of their own, how many civilian Gazans were targeted “mistakenly”. And if the death of three is unbearable, how would they describe the deaths of tens of thousands?

        The soldiers saw some (unarmed, shirtless) people and one of them immediately said “terrorists!”. That’s the level of analysis that’s going on when making kill decisions here.

        Ugh, ToI is such pro-genocide garbage! They’re as reliable on the conflict as The Daily Mail is about…well, anything except perhaps sports scores…

          And yet that media bias fact check website lists them as totally credible.

            This is why I’m suspicious of any group that purports to tell you everyone’s biases. Wouldn’t that be a great racket for propagandist to be in? And what would stop them?

            Just because it calls itself that doesn’t mean that it’s always right. Fact checkers have biases too, as do (somewhat ironically) bias researchers.
