I understand why they are so set on destroying Hamas

Having seen the stories of the women and girls raped at the festival (reportedly over their dead friends bodies) and the people taken off as hostage; I understand why Israel want to destroy Hamas. They have said that Hamas militants are dead men. They have said that they will go after them. The worst killing of Jewish people since the Holocaust and their 9/11 with death toll of over 1300 people.

The story of the women at the Music and Peace festival is here -

Yet some people celebrated when the killings of Jewish people (they were from many different countries) at the festival was announced.

I feel sadness for everything going on in the middle east and for all the people who are innocent are are dying. Terrorists need to be stopped.

Hamas 'carried out a second Holocaust' in Israel British relatives say

Two British nationals, Noam Sagi and Sharon Lifschitz (pictured), spoke of how their elderly parents were torn from their beds and forcibly deported to Gaza by Hamas along with children

Its been verified, 500 dead.

Even Canada is condemning the attack, bombing Hospitals are not mistakes, even if Hamas has embedded itself within the Hospital, which we don't yet know, it doesn't justify.

All this will do is line up the next 10,000 recruits for Hamas plus attacks in Europe and beyond.

Shame on IDF and Israeli govt. No justification. No excuse. War crime.

Israel Defense Force say the hospital was hit not by them or Hamas, but by Islamic Jihad aka PIJ.

Well it's happened before where Hamas rockets have misfired and killed Palestinians but I doubt we'll ever know the truth as how can it be independently verified? It's alleged video footage shows this but I haven't seen it. ( And it would need an expert to confirm it.)

And hundreds more are dead.

Israel are investigating and are waiting for their own verification.

Is hammas doing this? Would they admit that their rocket may fail?

Or another group?

Israel themselves are investigating they are waiting for their verification.

They said they wouldn't hit a hospital.

I can't understand why they would when it will turn every Jewish person into a target.

There is a lot of imagery on Twitter of a misfired rocket from August 2022.

There is also so much being retracted from official accounts
we did it - retracted
here's video proof we didn't - retracted
...

As usual the first causality of war is truth

Meanwhile this seems to have light a touch paper for protest outside Israeli Embassies across the Middle East

Here's hoping the rest of the night is calmer
