Oh but AP did criticise at first...but the editor did admit there was a Hamas presence in the building https://www.businessinsider.com/former-associated-press-edit...

Going back to the AlJazeera aspect: Qatar funds Hamas (one source cites 400m USD in 2014) AND provides the "right media coverage" through AlJazeera.

From where I'm standing it doesn't look like there is one sided propaganda

Ah, so its OK to drop bombs on the entire building then?

So, by extrapolation, if there is a Hamas teacher or a Hamas nurse in a school or hospital, then the IDF can wipe those out too?

Nice.

wait what's a Hamas teacher or a Hamas nurse? Look at Al-Shifa hospital. Built by the Israelis, today a hospital, rocket launch site, bunker and ammunitions cache all in one.

IDF's responsibility is to keep Israeli citizens safe(jews, muslims and christians). If someone across the border is using firing thousands of rockets at civilians then the IDF is going to step in.

Unfortunately the retaliation which will lead to the fewest civilian deaths will be bombing the launch site ( a civilian building).

What's the alternative? Mount a massive land invasion into a booby trapped hell hole?
