  1. The Israeli government forces are too cruel and overly defensive.

  2. It must be Israel did.Israeli gov is completely crazy.

  3. Meanwhile Darth Vader warms up the d*th star and stands firmly with Israel. #psychopathsincharge
    LET AID INTO GAZA NOW. BE HUMAN BEINGS.

  4. Yea right! All I know is don’t believe what you hear, when governments are involved.

  5. Just one word , everything is happening in front of your eyes western , Palestinian people have been waiting for70 years the peace , but they didn’t get it , son now u have to get the results , cuz what happened yesterday it’s not humanity and believable, I hope that all the Arabic countries will face it up together , and stop this shame

  6. wanna know how you can tell its their rocket?
    no pictures or videos of it!
    if it was israeli, their would be thousands of them.

  7. Can someone explain to me what this war even about because l don’t really understand it?

  8. Circular definition, safety equals no threat, which equals removing possibility of threats, requiring exterminating life of all which threatens or may become a threat which is the moment the former threat now becomes a threat to those who were a threat threating and those unthreatening around them, which becomes a new threat that needs extermination of which amplifies your threat which increases the response and validates the original threat and your response to exterminate the threat that now being proven is used in response to the counter threat and more threatening until all life which is a potential life threatening threat is eliminated leaving no further threats to lives and no lifes to threaten.

  9. Hamas's failed qassam rocket

  10. Hamas rocket is responsible .

  11. pretty sure its the same murderer of Jesus did this

  12. Shame on you, it is not a blast it is a bombardment

  13. I've been crying over this. A ceasefire needs to be enforced immediately.
    It seems that Israel is responsible. If so, they need to be charged with war crimes.
    It's illegal to target civilians under international law. They need to compensate all victims.

    Video and satellite surveillance should show where the rocket came from.
    It's not believable that an errant Hamas rocket happened to strike a hospital.

    This could lead to WW III with Arab Nations refusing to meet with President Biden.
    Russia, China and Iran will be all too happy to wage war against the US and Israel.

    God Help us The UN ruled long ago that the US and Israel are responsible for the violence.
    The taking of Palestinian land since 1948 and expansions since with restrictions is causing this.

  14. one israeli bomb kills hundreds of palestinians in hospital, this is holocaust of arabs. Cant imagine even today can let this happen. i am saddened n outraged by hamas killing civilians, but israeli killing mass civilians like that, all world leaders are responsible. especially USA, supporting arms to make this mass killings of humans.

  15. Are UN, Israel and USA not intelligent enough to warn 1.1 million Palestinians to evacuate northern Gaza Strip within 24 hours, before the deadly airstrikes? Israel was on war with Hamas and not hapless civilians. And when even UN, Israel and USA failed in preventing death of hapless civilians, then what is the problem if their opponents fail in committing crime? Did collective punishment serve the purpose or prove and provoke something else?

  16. النصر لنا باذن *الله*تعالى ،ونحن مستعدون لكل الاحتمالات ،

  17. Israel did not do this. Hamas and Islamic jihad are responsible. These two will stop at nothing to murder innocents, including their own

  18. US directed Israel to bomb the hospital

  19. You know it’s funny how when it’s Palestine it’s hearsay…and “Palestinians say” but when it was Israel its certain

  20. LOAD of BOLLOCKS – Don't get Sucked in!!!! Propaganda!!

    Here's the Proof

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3TPF5DpoYQ

  21. Israel must be held accountable for its crimes against humanity

  22. لعنت الله عله اخرایل

  23. There are several camera angles that show that it was not Israel that did it

  24. Updated your news! Israel killed +500 people!

  25. Now Hamas knows what it’s like to have your kids killed

  26. The people who took the video knew that blast would happen

  27. Zionism is a rotting cancer for this earth

  28. Don't tell me how Hamas store weapon in that place

  29. America lost credibility in the world by supporting a terrorist state

  30. All is fair in love and war

  31. Israel is committing war crimes and genocide. Why is America supporting a terrorist state !?

  32. Put this as your headline: Israel Bombed a Gaza hospital

  33. Father intervene, in Your Name Jesus 🙌🙌🙌
