> The bare, white-tiled rooms showed no immediate evidence of use — for command and control or otherwise. There are no signs of recent habitation, including litter, food containers, clothing or other personal items.
> “This room was evacuated, and all the gear was evacuated. I guess it was evacuated when they knew or understand that we were going to enter Shifa Hospital,” Hagari said in the video.
- tome 3y agoAl Shifa hospital has not been destroyed, nor has any hospital in Gaza, as far as I am aware.
- johnnyworker 3y agoAs far as you're aware. Okay? What am I supposed to do with that? 2 seconds of googling yielded this: > According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, 26 out of the 35 hospitals across Gaza are non-functional because of damage sustained during the Israeli military assault or the lack of power.
- beeboop 3y agoIsrael isn't in Gaza at all. They're just on the borders playing with puppies. Hey, look over here. Puppies.
- tome 3y agoNo one's provided evidence for the "destroyed hospital" that jcranmer claimed a "coterie of journalists" were invited to.
- johnnyworker 3y agoThen replace "destroyed" by "conducted a raid in", or even leave it out altogether, and nothing about the point of that sentence changes.
- tome 3y agoInteresting. To me there's a very strong difference between destroying and not destroying a hospital.
- johnnyworker 3y agoNope, the meaning is the exact same. > I'm not going to try to enumerate Israel's mistakes, but when you decide to invite a coterie of journalists to the hospital you damaged to provide proof of your claims that it was actually a hive center of terrorist activity, and all of them come away basically saying "this evidence isn't good enough," then that should be a sign that it's not PR that's the problem of Israel, it's Israeli actions that are the problem that needs addressing.
- tome 3y agoInteresting! I'd definitely prefer that my hospital wasn't destroyed, just damaged. I guess others must feel differently.
