Army spokesman Hagari gives tour of Al Rantisi Hospital, showcasing Hamas' operational tunnel shafts, cache of weapons and makeshift area in basement used for holding hostages
Apparently this upsets people who are protesting Israel’s behavior. Why? Do you have to believe they are bombing hospitals for shits and giggles in order to hold your conviction? Do you have to believe they are the only evil party in this conflict?
If your criticism of Israel’s military actions are in any way valid and ethical, they should not be harmed by this information.
I don’t think it really matters that much why they are bombing hospitals. I think most people are just upset about the bombing of hospitals.
Finding a little basement underneath with a small cache of weapons in is only upsetting in that some people seem to think that it justifies bombing a hospital full of civilians.
My personal objections are that (a) there’s still civilians there and (b) by bombing hospitals, they’ve given up claim to the moral high ground and that will only create more animosity. I’m an American with no particular animosity towards Israel but I think you’re making the same mistakes we did in Afghanistan and will find the results are the same. You cannot solve terrorism with military.
I don’t have a perfect solution but to me, it seems like you have to find the reasonable people (who also hate the terrorists) and build them up. That means, at the minimum, supporting doctors and undermining Hamas.
