    Sorry. I misjudged you. Been on Reddit too long. No room for nuance there.

    The significance is that media is still often relaying Hamas claims as if fact and you might have been relying wholly on such reports.

    That hospital incident was clearly Hamas bs from the outset - no photos, a video of the carpark leaked within 24 hours, Al Jazeera themselves unwittingly streamed live footage of the misfiring rocket.
