    In the next few days I fucking guarantee you that the usual Israeli propaganda mouthpieces all over the internet will point to the picture they released of a handful of guns and a Quran as proof that this was a “Hamas base” or “terrorist equipment” and the whole operation was a total success.

    Let us never forget that this wasn’t supposed to just be a “base” or a few guns and grenades, but a major headquarters or even a “center of gravity” for the whole organization. Their supposed world class intelligence concluded this and was happily supported by the US. And it was apparently fucking bullshit. So either a) they lied as an excuse to kill and terrorize civilians or b) their intelligence is actually a steaming pile of shit and they have no hope of actually destroying Hamas unless they actually drop that nuke the lunatic politician suggested a week or two ago.

    As always, looking forward to the comments about how this isn’t actually a war crime and it’s somehow all Hamas’ fault and Israel is just defending itself by launching an unjustified attack on a vital piece of civilian infrastructure.

    “Oopsie. Our bad. The base was probably in some other hospital. We’re going to bomb them all just to make sure.”

    The missing military base and the absence of any Hamas defense of the hospital makes the IDF attack a war crime with zero justification.

    The whole Hamas command base in a hospital narrative is pure nonsense. Do people just not understand that partisan resistance groups operate using independent cells precisely because having a central base of operations would create a central failure point for the whole organization?

    The latest claim is that they have found a shaft leading underground. How much you want to bet it looks like an elevator shaft, if they even release any pictures of it…
