I'm anti terrorism  

Hamas are scum and should be dealt with 

I don't think this approach is a good idea 

I don't need someone to tell me what is proportionate, it's quite clear this is not

I don't think it's indiscriminate, I think Israel are deliberately taking this response to the next level 

Like they wanted an excuse to flatten Palestine 

Hamas appear to have given them one 

Israel should be handling it much better than this with the west behind them

Yeh, that’s what everyone else has said. I asked you what you asked me. What do you think about the attack on the hospital?

Joe Biden visiting tomorrow. Why would Israel do such a horrendous thing on the eve of a visit from their biggest allie? If they have then they will have lost all credibility around the world. Plenty of other versions out there. 

 

The US president's trip to the Middle East "just got a lot more complicated", US correspondent James Matthews says, after a deadly strike on a hospital in Gaza.

"It couldn't be worse," Matthews says.

Hamas says at least 500 people have been killed, and although that's not verified, Matthews says, "we are just a couple of hours away" from Mr Biden's departure for the Middle East.

"This is a man who has styled himself as the champion of 'humanity'," he says.

"Yes he is standing behind Israel but also stressing the humanitarian issues as well. He sees the danger in all of this.

"We are looking at unverified reports of what could be the deadliest airstrike in five wars since 2008 in Gaza if it is verified."

Mr Biden was already in a difficult position, given the level of mistrust in the US in recent years, but the hospital incident makes it significantly more problematic for the president.

"Joe Biden is in a position where he wants to project himself as a power broker, but he will be sitting in a meeting room looking at pictures of a hospital that has been bombed with a loss of several hundred lives," he says.

"It was always going to be a complicated trip for Joe Biden, it has just got more complicated." 

 

Be interesting to see how they react

Disgusting 

Unnecessary 

Have they neutralised hamas yet? 

Has it done what they hoped it would? 

Has it fuck 

Hamas and Israel are killing innocent people for the sake of it 

One of them shouldn't be

Are Israel doing it deliberately? 

Nah

They fired the missile during a period of evacuation by accident. I hear the fella that did it didn’t get the memo, admin error. Likely caused by Hamas.

They deliberately kill ten militants and accidentally hit 100 children👍

So why did Shapps get his arse handed over by a BBC journalist over it?

Because he's thick as mince, or playing political games, or both

I'm not sure the BBC or others need to be as stringent as they choose to be regarding labelling Hamas a terrorist organisation, but the real disgrace is that they refuse to refer to Hamas' terrorist attack as a terrorist attack

I was meaning TMGJ singling out the BBC when there's others doing the same, but that seems to be ignored

I think so, yes

They know what they are doing 

This is the path they have decided to take 

So let's see where it takes them

Apologies, not a school. A Christian run hospital. Now reported with over 500 dead who were sheltering.

The response has become indefensible. Which felt impossible after the abject horrors of last weekend. 

Jumping to conclusions 

poor, typically poor

It’s an Anglican run hospital. The numbers confirmed are in every media outlet. What conclusion have you jumped to in regards to who fired the missile?

Apart from who caused it

 It’s a historical conflict. Hamas’ atrocities have caused this latest flare up, nobody is denying that. But that doesn’t justify the amount of innocent lives Israel have taken since.

So you don’t know. Just assuming again. 👍

Nah

I don’t know that thousands of innocents have been killed including many women and children. 

I’m just assuming. 

Rest assured the IDF are looking into it and I’m sure there’s a plausible explanation 👍
 

They’ve got it badly wrong with the scale of this response, and there’s a risk we could all be sucked into it if things escalate.

Ah well ‘such is war’ 😉

As you know civilians will get killed in war, always have always will. You seem to think it’s being done on purpose, why you’re coming to this conclusion is anyone’s guess as it only seems to be Hamas that are saying these Israeli strikes are deliberate.
