Sowing confusion to deflect blame is Tel Aviv’s usual propaganda strategy.
I’m not reading a blog from “electronic intifada”, just like I’m not reading the rants section of “holy land settlers .net”.
The IDF is wrong. Hamas is wrong. They are both wrong. This is not a contradiction.
The best way I’ve seen it put was that “Israel’s response goes beyond the scope of defense”
“Israel’s response goes beyond the scope of defense”
Yeah… since 1949.
Good for you, condemning all sides from your ivory tower so you can maintain moral purity.
So! What do you think Hamas should have done? Vote? Start a petition? Post about it on X?
Are you trying to suggest that Hamas were some how justified in intentionally killing innocent civilians?
Not having an answer doesn’t mean you can’t condemn both sides in this.

I can’t speak for the person you were responding to… but yes - Hamas (and every other organisation Palestinians choose to support) has every goddamn right to fight Israel in whatever way that works. And no… I am in no way suggesting that - I’m stating it outright.
You’re entitled to your opinion. I do wonder if it would change if it was your mum or brother or some other loved one that gets killed while minding their own business but whatever. In your mind, Hamas would be justified for it.

I am perfectly capable of understanding the point of view of a person who has had their entire family and/or community murdered, imprisoned or forced to flee - but having that happen to one over and over again for almost 80 years while privileged scum runs interference for the perpetrators because it’s simply more convenient to swallow the well-funded propaganda… that stretches the limits of even my imagination.

It actually does, because it means you’re just playing pretend instead of grappling with the world as it actually exists.
So shut up 😘
After hearing earlier in the week that Israel was demanding the evacuation of all hospitals in Northern Gaza, it was clear that this hospital was bombed as promised. Claims that Hamas did it are clearly diversionary propaganda.
The electronic intifada, yeah that’s not going to be biased propaganda at all /s
This is a pro Palestinian site. What do you expect they would say?
Don’t know… maybe the same kind of propaganda bullshit we always hear in such conflicts.
Oh, wait. No. Because they don’t need to when Israel is indeed contradicting itself constantly and links to sources and screenshots of quickly deleted official social media post are entirely sufficient without needing to spin the story…Wouldn’t be surprised if Israel did it and covered it up. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Palestinians accidentally blew it up or did it on purpose. No way of knowing. Everyone involved is gonna lie.
I’m not entirely discounting the possibility that it was a Hamas rocket accident, but claiming that an Israeli attack on Gaza was actually a hamas misfire is SOP for the IDF. The idea that hamas would do this intentionally is absurd though.
