The IDF revealed on Friday, what it described as intelligence showing a Hamas command center located under a the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. In a briefing, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told members of the foreign press corps that there are areas in the hospitals that are used by Hamas to direct its military operations.

    This looks so fake, holy shit. Apparently Hamas has a red barrel room straight out of every video game.

      It’s not a fake video; it’s obviously a representation of a base. I don’t know what you are getting at. Did you not realize this when the camera moved through the earth?

        It’s a representation of a Garry’s Mod level. I don’t doubt Hamas has bases in tunnels but the base depicted looks so obviously faked, the rooms in it look straight out of a video game. It’s like the Israeli government told a video game addicted intern to make up a Hamas bases in Garry’s Mod to send to the media.

          “This is an illustration of Shifa hospital and the underground facilities. I want to repeat, this is only an illustration. We will not share here the true material that we have in our hands. This is only an illustration.” - The dude doing the press conference.

            Yea, it’s an illustration of nothing real. Like Hamas doesn’t even have cement, what’s depicted in the video is as close to real life as if they had just shown a Doom level. What is the point of illustrating your imagination of what’s there?

    Hamas and PIJ have always use Hospitals, Schools, and Mosques to hide inside, store weaponry, and fire missiles from.

    In every single independent investigation by outside parties, that are not affiliated with Qatari owned Al Jazeera, like the UNHRC have found this to be true. They do this because they use the Palestinian people, with the Palestinian people’s blessing, to be used as human shields, knowing if Israel strikes, what should be a sacrosanct community center of religion, or healing, or learning, will be used for anti Israel inflammation in the world forum … like the Fediverse. They communicate to Israel , yeah this is where we’re hiding and storing our weapons above ground, if you hit us here we’re gonna make it hurt in the public relations department.

    And even after it’s proven that Hamas and their sycophants have lied, and it’s one of Hamas and/or PIJ’s own rockets which have misfired, landed and killed their people all the yahoos scream bloody murder, and Jews worldwide are targeted.

    And then a Rabbi gets stabbed to death outside her home in Detroit.

      Are you copying and pasting the same reply as someone else? I swear I keep seeing this exact reply on anything to do with Israel / Palestine, but it doesn’t show up in your post history (as far back as I could be bothered going anyway).

        No, it’s being said a lot because its both deplorable and true. And every time someone learns about it for the first time they assume that no self respecting person could know about Hamas’ crimes and still support Hamas.

      or PIJ’s own rockets which have misfired

      Still hasn’t been verifiably proven by either Hamas nor the IDF what actually happened. Even Al jazeera’s own video was contradictory to what the IDF claimed because it showed the missile launching from Israel which makes no sense.

      And then a Rabbi gets stabbed to death outside her home in Detroit.

      Unrelated and most likely not a targeted murder according to the police

      UNHRC have found this to be true

      Not saying this isn’t true but source plz? I can’t find anything talking about this mostly because right now they are focusing on the humanitarian crisis, so its all the new articles.

    I don’t doubt that they put them in and around hospitals, schools, mosques, and churches to try to increase civilian casualties and therefore outrage when Israel goes and strikes their enemies.

      That’s the thing

      Hamas is awful for putting military installations near civilian infrastructure, and the Israeli military is awful for bombing indiscriminately despite their advanced military tech and resources.

      We don’t need to pick one or the other

        Im not sure if i would blame Israel. If someone was barricaded next door to you taking people off the streets, taking pot shots over the fence and holding human shields you would want something done too. Unfortunately, while any action taken should miniseries danger to non-combatants they are literally in the line of fire.

        They tried blockades and cutting power, but everyone complained at that too. What are you meant to do when your opponent is deliberately trying to make you kill civilians to get rid of them?

          Take precautions and don’t indiscriminately bomb civilian population creating the next generation of people that will fight you.

          You know what would keep you from killing civilians?

          A ceasefire.

            You mean like every other ceasefire that was “agreed” in history that never lasted, had another attack and started all over again.

            Those ceasefire?

              Yes, those ceasefires! The ones that let non-combatants escape, aid to reach the dead and dying, humanitarian efforts to make headway even if only for a short time.

                non combatants escape - Hamas is deliberately holding civilians where they can act as shields. They aren’t letting their only protection go.

                Aid to reach dying - Hamas is taking it and holding it, it won’t reach those in need. Any aid that crosses will end up in the hands of those who want to prolong the conflict.

                Humanitarian efforts to make headway - im not holding hope for any meaningful headway without coming under attack or theft, and would not be surprised if Hamas took aid workers as hostages.

                I want you to be correct, but none of the history tells me that any civilians will benefit while Hamas is there and foreign (not necessarily Israeli) forces are not there to make it happen.

                  ~40k Hamas fighters in Gaza can’t hold the other 99.9% non combatants population hostage. This is an excuse to lump all Palestinians in with the Hamas fighters.

                  Flour was allowed in to feed the people then one of the only remaining bakeries in Gaza was bombed. What is that but an attempt to starve the people of Gaza. Again maybe 1 in 1000 people is Hamas so 999 people have to starve to cut off Hamas?

                  How about Westbank, where there is no Hamas. Why are they bombing Palestinians in the Westbank if this is all about Hamas and taking them out?

    This certainly has the tone of disinformation released by a state intelligence agency. Justification after the fact for brutal hospital bombings.
