    Im going crazy at people’s reaction to a hospital being bombed during the largest aerial bombardment from Israel (A country known for bombing hospitals) into Gaza, this hospital was supposedly just meant to have exploded thanks to a weapon dozens of times more powerful than anything Hamas has ever had in its arsenal.

    I’m actually losing my fucking mind at these comments

      I genuinely don’t understand what you’re suggesting happened. There’s an incredible amount of ambiguity from the average commenter to where I can’t tell if they believe it’s an isreali strike or a failed Hamas rocket

        Some of the highest voted comments here are in total agreement with the Israeli narrative despite total lack of evidence.

          Are they? I can’t work out if it’s sarcasm or people being genuinely direct.

          Fuck I’ve lost touch with internet etiquette and nuances to where I can’t trust a fucking thing I read anymore. I’m sitting here with my pants down not understanding anything

        As he said he is losing his mind. Because it clashes with reality and he cannot accept anything that goes against his firm convictions.

          It’s so interesting to me that even your comment is ambiguous, it’s like everyone on lemmy has evolved to not make themselves clear to what their opinion is

            Oh I did not mean that to be ambigious. To make it clear: I think the user is a dumbass who gets upset because people don’t believe that Israel attacked the hospital but that it was caused by the “defenders”. Which is something he cannot accept because in his mind Israel must be at fault.

      I spent most of today trying to get to the bottom of this. It’s still inconclusive honestly, from my layman perspective. On some level I’m just like, what fucking difference does it even make, it’s all caused by this idiotic conflict. Give the Palestinians some of the land back, arrange a change in power on both sides, get this god damn thing over with already.

      Yea, first they had their propagandists celebrate it, then they said it was shot down by iron dome, then they said it was a malfunction. They said it came from a cemetery next to the hospital, then changed to say it came from south Gaza. The only difference between this incident and the thousands of other strikes is that it garnered more sympathy in the west.

      If Israel is known to bomb hospitals, why did Hamas put their headquarters in the biggest hospital in Gaza? Isn’t that kind of counterproductive?
