Most professional armies would avoid targeting a functioning hospital.

More than a dozen Palestinians were killed in a pair of Israeli strikes on a hospital in southern Gaza, according to the Nasser Medical Complex, including journalists from multiple outlets.

The hospital said at least 14 people were killed in the attack on Monday, including a number of journalists, and many more injured.

A first strike on the hospital hit the fourth floor of Nasser Medical Complex on Monday morning, the Palestinian health ministry said, followed by a second attack a short time later that hit ambulance crews and emergency responders.

Destruction of medical facilities is a necessary step in carrying out ethnic cleansing.

Completely eliminating shelter, water, food and medical care lets Israel and its backers take the position that "hey we have to move them to Africa, they can't survive where they are".

That position is supported by people on the forum.

It's disgusting for sure, and immoral. It seems the zionists have long abandoned the Ten Commandments or any connection to their religion as it defines right and wrong, and are now just unevolved Nazi wannabes or worse

That was a **** up, as was the attack on Canadian soldiers.

The difference here is that attacking hospitals is Israeli government policy.

They repeatedly lied before admitting they ****ed up, and the pilots on the spot were openly questioning whether they were committing a war crime as they carried it out.

It doesn’t excuse Israel’s actions, but it did happen.

During the Iraq and Afghanistan wars did the US or its partners ever intentionally target a hospital?

I doubt it. This is different. This is a religeous war. Like it ir not, a diffetent set of reality applies.

I understand that but there's a difference between gross incompetence and government policy.

The Israeli government has justified deliberately targeting journalists. They then accuse the journalists of "being or supporting hamas". It's blatant lying, but they don't care. The number of war crimes they commit dwarfs even the worst Palestinian organization. There's no comparison. That's what's particularly tragic.

When a government commits more atrocities than a terrorist organization, that's problematic.

And what we learn about Israel is that virtually every allegation is a confession.

Nope this is a conflict for national liberation, the liberation of the Palestinian people and the creation of the Palestinian state

Did you compile that post whilst under water ?

It reads like someone bobbing in and out of a large volume of water.

Yup. Children under 12, shot in the head or chest. Human Shields my ass.

The BBC World Service said it compiled evidence on over 160 cases where children were shot by Israeli forces in Gaza, and found that in 95 cases, the child was shot in the head or chest.

Most of the victims were under the age of 12, according to the investigation.
