Scrubbed: NBC Journalist 'Witnessed' Israeli Attack Against Gaza Hospital
Breitbart ^ | 7/28/14 | John Nolte

Posted on 07/28/2014 11:49:45 AM PDT by blueyon

According to Twitter and Google, an NBC journalist reported that he or she had personally witnessed an Israeli drone attack and fire on a hospital in Gaza. The eye witness report was at first included in this NBC News article, and read, "a NBC News journalist witnessed the attack on the hospital and said it had been fired by an Israeli drone."

Since that report was published, though, the accusation has been scrubbed entirely from the article. The only evidence of the NBC journalist's "eyewitness" accusation is the apparent insertion of this sentence:

I’m guessing that “journalists” get fined every time they tell the truth...

Umm, we have multiple accounts in the last two weeks (even by Pali loving UN observers), of Hamas hiding missiles in hospitals and schools. My point, the hospital may be either a front or active collaborator with the terrorists; in either case Israel has an obligation to destroy it.

Its common knowledge that Hamas will build a bunker or weapons depot into a public building such as a school or a hospital when they build it so that when it gets destroyed they can claim the Israeli’s are targeting civilians..

Hamas intentionally uses human shields and then cries when they are killed and the idiotic media and public buy it.

What were the equipment totals? How many small arms caches? How many RPG caches? How many “arms other than hand-weapons” were taken out of the conflict?

It is known that Muslims hide behind soft targets. If I went into the hospital basement, could I simply walk to the Isreali side or the border?

Many great comments below the article. This is one of my favorites:

***Was it an internet video that started the hospital attack or just some Israeli guys out for a walk one night that decided to protest?....what difference, at this point, does it make?

“Since the reporting and subsequent scrubbing of this eyewitness report, the Israelis say they have confirmed that the Gazan hospital was hit by rockets fired in Gaza by Hamas, not by Israel or an Israeli drone. “

How long will it take them to acknowledge that there is another version of the facts.

I thought that report had the stink of Pallywood about it. I’m not surprised that it didn’t even last a day before being disavowed.

Hamas is hiding in the al-Shifa hospital. Both French and US journalists have reported that Hamas leadership use the localities of the hopital as their offices, meeting and hiding places:

[A] French-Palestinian journalist told another reporter that he was intimidated by members of the Hamas Al Qsssam Brigades from their office next to the emergency room at Shifa Hospital.

Similarly, Wall Street Journal reporter Nick Casey noted that Hamas created a TV studio in the same hospital and tweeted a photo of a Hamas politician being interviewed there.

However, both journalists took down their tweets and web-pages, probably threatened by Hamas.

The full information regarding these stories (as far as is known) can be found here, here and here.

However, the neither the Israeli Airforce nor the Israeli Army bombarded the hospital, nor the refugeee camp. The losses in human lives were caused by misfired rockets from Islamic Jihad, The IDF did not have any activity in that area during the time in question!

Israel more than likely fired at that hospital because there were HAMAS fighters in there firing at Israeli's.
