I've yet to see any evidence of the importance of the building other than the fact it housed the press. What does Israel gain from bombing the building other than suppressing and disrupting the media? What physical asset could have possibly been in that building that could not have been relocated in the preceding hour?!

It housed some hamas offices. Even if they took out some computers, disrupting operations (communication, etc) still achieves targets.

Given modern technology (satellite and mobile links), it's hardly possible to "suppress and disrupt the media" as everybody can see. If there is somebody who does suppression of media in gaza it will be hamas: wrong reporting and you are in best case expelled an in worst case dead.

What you said about disrupting operations in the building applies to the media organizations in the building, too. There is a gaping logical chasm between these two statements:

> Even if they took out some computers, disrupting operations (communication, etc) still achieves targets.

> Given modern technology (satellite and mobile links), it's hardly possible to "suppress and disrupt the media" as everybody can see.
