Jihadists Strike Own Civilian Hospital

While the media immediately scrambled to incorrectly blame Israel, United States intelligence has pointed out that the rocket that misfired and landed on a hospital in Gaza, killing hundreds, was fired by Palestinian terrorists.
Even the so-called venerable New York Times had to walk back its initial headline, originally stating the hospital blast was an “Israeli strike” before changing the incendiary headline against Israel after more information came to light.
It seems the Times, as well as many other mainstream media outlets, opted to parrot Hamas rather than wait for the facts, as reported:
“An explosion killed hundreds of people on Tuesday at a hospital in Gaza City that was packed with people sheltering there, Gazan officials said, as Palestinians and Israelis blamed each other for a tragedy that inflamed the region just as President Biden was expected to arrive in Israel.
Hamas, the group that controls Gaza, said an Israeli airstrike had caused the blast at the Ahli Arab Hospital. Hours later, Israeli officials said that one of the rockets fired at Israel by Palestinian militants had failed shortly after launch, causing what could be the deadliest single incident of the 10-day-old war.”
The world has now seen video and audio provided by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) of two Hamas operatives discussing the hospital blast, and admitting it was their rocket that misfired, killing their own people. In the video, one of the operatives asks about the rocket: “It’s from us?” His cohort explains, “It looks like it.” He then goes on to explain the shrapnel examined from the rocket is not Israeli. The Hamas operative directly states they fired the rocket from behind the hospital and it misfired. What more evidence is needed? Every media outlet that seized the opportunity to pin the blame on Israel should be held accountable. Where are the retractions? Where are their public apologies?
Perhaps the more disturbing question is, was this really a misfire which accidentally took out innocent Palestinians, or was this done intentionally so that Hamas could stoke the fires against Israel, saying the IDF fired on the hospital? After all, putting the focus back on Israel by accusing them of attacking a hospital might make people forget the murders, rapes, and kidnappings committed by Hamas just over a week ago. Thankfully we now have this video provided by IDF to expose this misinformation.
