It wasn't intentional; the building was used by the military years before. The US had really badly out-of-date intelligence and was negligent in updating it.

Remember Hanlon's Razor, and remember how incompetent the Trump Administration has been in everything ever since he took office.
- srean 7mo agoBut 10~15 years outdated intelligence about an area considered a significant adversary that is penetrated by oodles of humint sources... hard to believe. Israel has hit schools before knowing full well that it's a school (in war against Egypt). May well be policy. Many of these kids would have been kids of IRGC. Likely that was the reason.
- anabab 7mo ago> There's absolutely no military benefit to bombing a girl's school. Objection. For a hypothetical actor wanting to set the world economy on fire there might be a benefit of enraging the enemy to lower the risk of early deescalation.
