    Share information, misinformation, information with context, information without it, everyone on here is kidding themselves if they think this, or any discourse, will amount to a damn thing if the leaders don't give a shit about global rhetoric, and if support flows based on existing allies anyways. I don't know why anyone cares to have these talks anymore, it's an exercise in willingly accepting misery and futility into one's life.

    Israeli airstrikes have caused extensive damage to Gaza hospital, aid organization says

    From CNN’s Abeer Salman and Jessie Gretener

    Israeli airstrikes have “caused extensive damage to hospital departments and exposed residents and patients to suffocation” at the Al-Quds Hospital, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said Sunday.

    The aid organization accused Israel of “deliberately” launching the airstrikes “directly next to Al-Quds Hospital, with the aim of forcing the medical staff, displaced people, and patients to evacuate the hospital.”

    Videos from the Palestinian Red Crescent show dust clouding up hallways in the hospital, with some people trying to put on face masks. Other video obtained by CNN appears to show the aftermath of a strike, with a cloud of dust rising next to the hospital.

    The director of Al-Quds Hospital, Dr. Bashar Mourad, told CNN the vicinity of the hospital had been targeted three times by Israeli airstrikes Sunday as of 4:45 p.m. local time (10:45 a.m. ET).

    CNN has asked the Israel Defense Forces about the aid organization's reports that the Al-Quds Hospital was specifically targeted by airstrikes.

    Some background: Al-Quds Hospital is treating hundreds of patients, including wounded people, patients in intensive care and children in incubators, the Palestinian Red Crescent said. In addition, approximately 12,000 internally displaced civilians are currently sheltering at the hospital.

    The hospital is located in the Tal Al Hawa neighborhood in Gaza City, north of Wadi Gaza — the line south of which Israel has urged people in Gaza to flee. 

    Earlier Sunday, the Palestinian Red Crescent had said it received a warning to immediately evacuate the hospital. The World Health Organization has said the order is impossible without endangering the lives of patients.

    In response to questions about the evacuation warning and medical workers' response, Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Maj. Nir Dinar told CNN, "They received much more than two (warnings) for the last three weeks."

    Israel claims responsibility for Jabalya attack, says civilian deaths are ‘tragedy of war’

    Israel confirmed it was responsible for an attack on the Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza on Tuesday that Palestinian officials said left hundreds dead and injured.

    The Israel Defense Forces targeted and killed a senior Hamas commander, Ibrahim Biari, said IDF spokesman Lt. Col. Richard Hecht.

    Soldiers on the ground and in an IDF aircraft were used in the offensive, the IDF said, adding that a number of Hamas militants were killed and that tunnel entrances, weapons and military equipment were destroyed.

    But the attack also appears to have had a far wider, and fatal, impact on civilians. Exact figures on the number of dead and injured were not immediately clear in the aftermath of the strikes, but footage of the scene streamed by Al Jazeera showed dozens of civilians digging through the rubble to reach trapped people.

    Asked on CNN by Wolf Blitzer about why the IDF pressed ahead with the attack even though it was aware of the large civilian population in the area, Hecht said it was a “very complicated battle space” and that Biari, the Hamas commander, “killed many, many Israelis.”

    “But you know that there are a lot of refugees, a lot of innocent civilians, men, women and children in that refugee camp as well, right?” Blitzer asked Hecht.

    “This is the tragedy of war, Wolf,” Hecht said.

    Does anyone still think this is justified? And if so did you think all the killing the US did in Iraq and Afghanistan was justified? and why?

    “But you know that there are a lot of refugees, a lot of innocent civilians, men, women and children in that refugee camp as well, right?” Blitzer asked Hecht.

    “This is the tragedy of war, Wolf,” Hecht said.

    Does anyone still think this is justified? And if so did you think all the killing the US did in Iraq and Afghanistan was justified? and why?
    I was and am totally against the war in Iraq, was critical of Afghanistan and thought we should have pulled out as soon as Obama was killed in Pakistan.

    Israel claims responsibility for Jabalya attack, says civilian deaths are ‘tragedy of war’

    Israel confirmed it was responsible for an attack on the Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza on Tuesday that Palestinian officials said left hundreds dead and injured.

    The Israel Defense Forces targeted and killed a senior Hamas commander, Ibrahim Biari, said IDF spokesman Lt. Col. Richard Hecht.

    Soldiers on the ground and in an IDF aircraft were used in the offensive, the IDF said, adding that a number of Hamas militants were killed and that tunnel entrances, weapons and military equipment were destroyed.

    But the attack also appears to have had a far wider, and fatal, impact on civilians. Exact figures on the number of dead and injured were not immediately clear in the aftermath of the strikes, but footage of the scene streamed by Al Jazeera showed dozens of civilians digging through the rubble to reach trapped people.

    Asked on CNN by Wolf Blitzer about why the IDF pressed ahead with the attack even though it was aware of the large civilian population in the area, Hecht said it was a “very complicated battle space” and that Biari, the Hamas commander, “killed many, many Israelis.”

    “But you know that there are a lot of refugees, a lot of innocent civilians, men, women and children in that refugee camp as well, right?” Blitzer asked Hecht.

    “This is the tragedy of war, Wolf,” Hecht said.

    Does anyone still think this is justified? And if so did you think all the killing the US did in Iraq and Afghanistan was justified? and why?
