A US official with knowledge of American intelligence says Hamas has a command center under the Al-Shifa hospital, uses fuel intended for it and its fighters regularly cluster in and around Gaza’s largest hospital.

    Let’s just say for arguments sake that it’s true. Would that justify idk an air strike on an active hospital? Is that how hostage negotiations are handled? Bomb the bank and be like well the robbers were holed up in the safe underground so really it’s their fault we blew all the tellers into a fine bloody mist.

      Let’s just say that this further proves how hamas using civillian infrastructure as a living shield is an intended thing, if not strategy.

          In a way it does. It would be vastly different if Israel would bomb everything while hamas would care about their fellow citizens.
