The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement that it “carried out a strike in the area of” the hospital. The IDF said it “does not target journalists as such,” and that the military chief has instructed an initial inquiry to be opened as soon as possible.
The IDF statement does not acknowledge hitting the hospital directly, fails to mention the two consecutive strikes on the facility and makes no mention of what the military was targeting.
An Israeli security official with knowledge of the details of an initial inquiry said IDF forces identified a camera on the roof of the hospital that they claim was being used by Hamas to monitor the Israeli military.
The forces received authorization to strike the camera with a drone, the source said. But instead, Israeli forces fired two tank shells: the first at the camera and the second at rescue forces.
**The details of the inquiry are a remarkable admission from an Israeli official that it intentionally targeted the first responders that arrived at the scene after the first strike. **
For those who don’t know: the Hind Rajab Foundation is the Palestinian equivalent of the Simon Wiesenthal Center - and just as necessary in our time. They take legal action to bring likely war criminals to trial.
History has a way of turning. Put yourself in the shoes of a 1930s Belgian citizen. Would you have guessed that 15 years later the fuckers running what looks to be an unstoppable Nazi machine would be hanging in Nuremberg?
Reminder to support the Hind Rajab Foundation. It may take time, but these fuckers WILL answer for their crimes, even if we have to drag 90 year old morose old men to the Hague. There is no Statute of Limitations for War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity in the State of Palestine.
Thank you for the advise, I acted upon it too.

Guy, accountability is for the poor.

They didn’t have social media or education obliteration. The propaganda was not as sophisticated as today.
Ah then, since history ended, we might as well lie down and die already.
History? What’s that? It’s already being re-written.
