    Even Al Jazeera’s footage shows that was a misfire from Gaza. That’s what happens when you make rockets out of water pipes.

          Scroll down. They are literally saying the opposite. Look at the post made at 0300 GMT. Your links are coming straight from Israel, and all we have is a video in the arabic Al Jazeera clip. There is no explicit confirmation. We don’t also have an official confirmation from any 3rd party neutral investigation outside of the “US intelligence” stating that this is a Hamas rocket.

          Oh and don’t forget about the deleted IDF tweets. Omission of truth doesn’t mean something didn’t happen. :-)

          And while you’re at it, take a peek at the rest of the feed and see how Palestinians are getting killed.

          Quote from Al Jazeera stating the exact opposite.

          “This really does fit perfectly into a pattern of Israeli war crimes in which they have bombed civilian infrastructure and residential areas and schools and hospitals.

          One campaign against Gaza after the other they’ve done the same: In 2014, they did the same in 2008 and 2009. So it would be nothing new here except the particular death toll.

          The scale of it, in this particular strike, seems to be much more significant than any previous strike. But the action itself is unsurprising.

          We’ve had human rights organisations documenting in the past indiscriminate killings and Israeli bombings of civilian areas and, most critically, we’ve seen time and again the Israeli government simply lie about responsibility for its crimes.

          And deflections – trying to blame Palestinians – as recently as last year with the killing of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, where Israel tried to pin it on the Palestinians but it turned out to, obviously, be Israel.”

              Why? Israel should let members of the International community, particularly, the ICC in so that they can investigate this and other war crimes being reported by news agencies and the Palestinian authorities.

              Did you even look through the feed that I posted as part of my previous comment? If you have and yet you still claim that IDF isn’t capable of such atrocities, you’re being willfully ignorant. Or should I remind you that Palestinians are running out of water because Israel though it would be a good idea to besiege Gaza and collectively punish everybody there.
