  1. I can’t believe the noble Hamas would use civilian buildings for military purposes. You guys told me they would never.

  2. Hamas would shoot the doctors if they so much as objected.

  4. According to international law, this hospital can now be considered a military base

  5. Gotta keep current.

  7. both different sides of the same “not helping and making things worse for the rest” coin

    edit: the rest = innocent civilians

  8. Since Palestine is now a recognized state, Hamas (as the government and military of the state) are now considered state combatants party to the Conventions of Geneva (which Palestine signed onto in 2014), and since this is no longer a terrorist group but a state-backed military, this is now considered the war crime of perfidy.

  9. Cue the next 20 articles about Israel firing on the largest/last/only/etc hospital in Gaza and doctor quotes about them killing all the babies and pregnant mothers they had.

  10. But I thought they didn’t use hospitals for military installations?

  11. The magnitude of removed comments here is refreshing.

  12. Can someone explain to me why it seems that Hamas doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians?

  13. *Palestinian army.

    If Palestine is a state, Hamas is the government of Gaza, and this is their army.

  15. Reason #483 I think if Palestine becomes a state, Israel will just end up occupying it anyway. I can’t imagine some bad apples don’t just fire some rockets and cause Israel to react. I’d guess Israel would just plan on it happening too, it’s happened enough before.

  16. And that is a warcrime. Which are wrong no matter who is doing them.

  18. Since I am highly critical of the actions of the IDF, I will state here, that of course this is unacceptable. If you want humanitarian buildings to be considered as such, then you cannot use them militarily. That will cost you international good will and recognition, as well as, of course, invalidate arguments you had about that specific building. Also it of course endangers anyone in that hospital. Especially, when you know, that the enemy has superior firepower.

    So this is a despicable act.

    The bad thing is, that there surely are doctors and staff inside that hospital, who only wanted to do their job, saving lives, and are now probably subject to bombardment.

  19. Hamas using a hospital as a military base & im supposed to be opposed to israel

  20. The thing that everyone says they don’t do is happening again.

    Shock horror!

  22. I wonder why more popular media orgs. or humanitarian orgs. like BBC, guardian, etc. haven’t reported this yet

  25. Guy’s its clearly IDF fighters posing as hamas shooting at other IDF soldiers to justify bombing the hospital… clearly.

    /s

  26. This is the story. This is what Hamas creates, and then hides behind civilians to get sympathy from abroad.
