The person you’re replying to said nothing about believing it, that’s an inference you’ve made. Cos they have made a good point, listening to one side only does cause an echo chamber effect. And I encourage everyone to read as much as they can from all aspects in matters like this, but draw your own conclusions. War isn’t simple, it’s complex, dirty, and downright deplorable. It’s why so much study into past wars is undertaken, even those in recent memory that were well documented compared to ones that happened long ago. A lot can be learnt, be it statistically, economically, culturally etc.
There is an underground city in Gaza. Terrorists hide there. It would be strange under the circumstances for there not to be tunnels leading to/from the hospital. The IDF’s claim is most likely true.
The “other side” of the argument is not a rejection of this, it is to point out that these circumstances were manufactured by apartheid, and that they do not justify Israel’s ethnic cleansing campaign
You probably should.
Whether you agree or not, it’s always a good idea to hear both sides, otherwise there’s a good chance you’ll end up in an echo chamber.
If their story is fabricated it’ll fall apart very quickly.
No you should not. During wars in particular you need third party verification, you can’t be so naive to believe anything from the parties involved.
