Hamas very well could have bombed them but my money would be on Hezbollah. Blinken just finished a begging tour of all our gulf “allies” pleading for understanding and cooperation in utilizing our bases in those countries when Iran is eventually attacked. This has been a worldwide PR debacle for Israel after about day four or five. The hospital imagery might be enough to subvert vital cooperation necessary for the US in the Persian Gulf.

Two thoughts.

They were probably launching rockets from the top of the hospital, and/or it’s a rocket factory. Hamas makes people remain in buildings in order to have more dead to show to the world.

Also, it is amazing Abbas is still there. He was Arafat’s banker. Just like Hamas, the PLO ‘leaders’ are rolling in $$$ while their people live in camps and squalor.

Often, when reading about PLO, Hamas etc I remember that the ‘Palestinians’ have lived in almost every Middle East country. Lebanon and Jordan are some of many countries that tried to assist, but the ‘Palestinians’ wreak havoc everywhere. Now they are used to wreak havoc on the Jews.

מניתוח המערכות המבצעיות של צה״ל בוצע מטח רקטי של האויב לעבר ישראל, שעבר בסביבת בית החולים, בשעת הפגיעה בו.
על פי מידע מודיעיני, ממספר מקורות הקיים בידינו, ארגון הגא״פ אחראי לירי הכושל שפגע בבית החולים.
Translated from Hebrew by
From the analysis of the operational systems of the IDF, an enemy rocket barrage was carried out towards Israel, which passed in the vicinity of the hospital, when it was hit.
According to intelligence information, from several sources we have, the GAP organization is responsible for the failed shooting that hit the hospital.

“BABY LILK FACTORY”

Guaranteed that IF it happened it was because missiles were being launched from the property.

“Hamas probably bombed them.”

I hate to be conspiratorial about things but given Hamas’s overall reputation and desire to make Israel look bad, I can easily picture them doing this.

Or at the very least, they were storing a boatload of weapons in the basement there.

Built a “hospital” over your underground rocket factory, did you? Oh, so clever.

Biden stooping to
Meet with this blood/ thirsty mass- murdering Arab terrorist would be as bad as defecating on the USA flag from the Oval Office. Thank Heaven he’s not going to be permitted the opportunity to smear america like this! Praying for his safe retirement in 2024!!!

Thing is, I am very pro-israel. I would like to think that it wasn’t the Israelis who bombed the hospital. But, is there any way to confirm who did what?

Like Ronaldus Magnus said, “Trust but verify”.

Abbas will be removed. His people think he has been too conciliatory to the Israelis.

Amir Tsarfarti on Telegram has a video of the missile hitting the hospital after being launched by Hamas.

According to the IDF, they did not fire in that locale, and it is common for the Hamas missiles to blow up. Considering that they are mainly improvised missiles made with sewer pipe, used plumbing parts, nails, etc., and powered with ammonia perchlorate, which can be highly unstable, they probably had it parked next to the hospital. Some Hamas puke could have accidentally flicked a cigarette butt on one of these fine missiles (or a few located nearby), and blown them up. The hospital patients would have been killed with shrapnel. Hamas has amended the count to “a few dozen” from the 500 or more they were trying to sell.

Abbas was withdrawing to protest an alleged Israeli airstrike on a hospital in Gaza that Hamas health officials say has killed over 500 people.

Wait until he hears it was a Hamas rocket that failed due to poor production methods.

The same hospital from which Hamas was launching missiles in to Israel last time they picked a fight. I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if Hamas blew it up for the propaganda.
