    If you look at Bob Newhart’s video, the first clip show mostly smoke and little flames, the second video shows lots of flames. One could believe munitions inside the hospital exploded with the bomb.

    Identification of weapons and ammunition was indeed part of my professional toolkit.

    One of those rockets would not even blow up a townhouse, let alone a hospital. Maybe 100 lb warhead.

    Israel is the only Middle Eastern country that pays any attention to international law.

    That’s because a hospital wasn’t blown up. The more I look at info, the more it appears to be a rocket that fell apart and the warhead landed in the courtyard of the hospital where some Gaza residents were. The number is not going to be 500. That number is coming from HAMAS.

    This seemed credible to me. The Twitter page worked for me then didn’t:

    In the end, I’m going to keep waiting and am not going to take the word of HAMAS.

    It detonated the stored ammunition.

    Where have you heard there was stored ammunition there? Just the standard "Oh, they hide weapons under every baby's crib" argument?

    That is indeed standard Hamas procedure, and the reported secondary explosions were consistent with ammunition storage.

    You offered nothing credible, to be "denied." In fact, I never said that Hamas might not store munitions at hospitals. But to an operational brain, that lone fact, does not prove at all, first, that this particular hospital not only had arms stored in it-- and another poster has already pointed out, your article was 20 years old; don't you think that the underground tunnels and bunkers that have been dug out, in all that time, would now be a better storage space, than a hospital utility closet?-- but also that it was struck by a Palestinian (Islamic Jihad) rocket, or thirdly, that such a rocket was capable of igniting these speculated, stored munitions, if they actually existed.

    Clearly you are preferring your personal fantasies, to facts.

    It is Hamas standard procedure to store ammunition in hospitals and schools, etc. And reported secondary explosions are consistent with ammunition storage.

    The Palestinians' 75 years of military incompetence undermine your assumptions.

    No such secondary explosions were reported. There were speculations that if it was a rocket attack secondary explosions could have killed people, but as far as I have heard, none have been reported. All speculation on everyone's part.

    Hello Mr T Dude. Have you seen this Poll? I'd like to see it as well.

    As understand it, there have been no elections in Gaza sine 2006. Is that right?

    And your individual record, of stubbornly defending unsubstantiated or even patently wrong positions, here on PF, just because you have a personal partiality to them-- as against Global Warming, for just one-- undermine your speculations; which, by the way, are nothing but speculations, to begin with.

    Ah. The use of "patently wrong" suggests the arrogance that creates error.

    It is a crime to house military assets inside civilian buildings.

    The crime would be on Hamas.

    You cannot have a terrorist hide behind civilians and be immune from harm.
