This guy was too quick off the gun. Reporting the air strike over a week too early.

See this is what an airstrike looks like, not a small hole in a car park, and it killed 9 people not 500. That's the difference in figures when you get then from someone not connected to Hamas.

Also it looks like the church itself wasn't hit, it was the surrounding buildings.

So another flattened building is miraculously still standing once dawn breaks.

Edit: yep looks like another fake out.

Likely Hamas stationed themselves near the church to draw fire there and had the story of its destruction prepped and ready and waiting to go. But that damn church just refused to fall.

Parking lot bombings or whatever.

Why does Israel continue to bomb Gaza?

Israel is not under attack.

The ongoing bombings are indefensible.

Why are you apologizing for Israeli crimes?

What are you talking about? Hamas has been non stop firing rockets at Israel since the attack. They are holding civilians hostage.

They are at war. If Russia stops bombing the Ukraine for half an hour does that mean the Ukrainian army has to down tools until the bombing starts back up again?

Please engage your brain once in a while.

Really? Source?

Irrelevant.

Is Gaza still attacking Israel?

Why are they still being bombed?

There's the answer. The Israeli foreign minister now admits there's a plan for another land grab.

Of course they can exterminate more of the indigenous people.

Please engage your brain once in a while.

Check any live stream and you will see the rockets yourself. I guess you are another one who lives to have your food chewed for you.

Yes, Gaza attacked Israel. That's why this is all happening now.

You still haven't explained why Israel should just sit back and allow itself to be attacked and bombed. Please do.

An Israeli airburst missile won't make a huge hole in a hospital car park full of civilians.

A church in Gaza full of civilians was targeted and hit by an Israeli missile.

Likely you are just another racist with a hard-on for dead Arabs

[–]jet199 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

An airburst missile would likely knock down some of the buildings though, rather than just burning out all the cars, very much like a fuel explosion.

Any evidence the church was directly targeted? Any proof the church itself was hit?

You are just proving that you bots had your story prepped for when that Hamas position drew fire. Otherwise why say that?

[–]Death_By_Democracy 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Would it? I don't think so. The fuel was in the cars which were directly below the blast.

Israel has a long history of attacking places serving as bomb shelters in Gaza. They also made a direct threat to bomb the hospital before they actually did bomb it.

The fact is - Israel deliberately targeted the church and they deliberately targeted the hospital.

Fuck off. Your arguments are refuted several times online at reliable sources. Others might respond to your lies.

[–]jet199 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah, just keep spamming Qatari propaganda taken directly from Hamas and crying when you get called out for it.

And don't forget to keep upvoting your own posts.
