Theres pictures online confirming that it was an Iranian misfire that killed the school.

Will you now redirect your outrage over innocent children to the incumbent Iranian government?

Will you continue entering threads to signal your outrage to the world?

Will you keep quiet, double down or practice the morals you claim to have?

While this is a minor point; whether or not it was an Iranian misfire doesn't move the moral responsibility away from the invaders. Unless the IRGC took advantage of the chaos to purposefully hit the school (seems unlikely) then the entire situation was teed up by the external aggression and can still pretty reasonably be blamed on them.

Why does that seem unlikely? It makes people argue that the price is not worth it. After killing thousands of protesters you think they would shy away from killing some dozens of kids?

Of course it does.

If you try to shield your armed forces using children, and then accidentally kill them because you used them as a shield, you can't blame someone else.

Weird that you're so delighted to shift the blame for the tragedy of children being blown up in school, even more so that you're relying on unsubstantiated claims to do it.

Since you know more than the rest of the world about this, please update Wikipedia with a reliable source for your claim as has already been requested by admins here[1].

Where in my message does it seem that I am delighted?

No doubt the truth will eventually come out, what I have seen is that the school was sited unusually close to an Iran launch site.

You can judge me all you want for "being delighted", whatever the hell that means, but I'm not advocating that schools be used as shields for rocket launchers, am I?

I'm advocating the exact opposite.
