President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren’t behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.

Biden responded that it was “the data I was shown by my Defense Department.”

Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.

    My first assumption is that the aggressive occupying genocidal regime is lying, but that video shows that they can’t see a rocket that did it but if it was a misfire from the ground we wouldn’t see it either. So I cant see how this is definitive.

    Regardless of who did it Israel regularly kills civilians anyway so they are still cunts.

      It’s obviously not definite. But neither is Israel’s evidence , which is the same evidence.

      I think israel and the USA know, they have eyes everywhere, satellites, starlink, awacs, drones. There is definitely proof of who did this. Since israel has failed to provide that proof, i tend to believe they want to hide the truth until a later date when it won’t matter anymore.

        I’m on board to think the worst of Israel at any given moment, in fact even if this wasn’t them it is still as a result of their policies and actions as an apartheid regime committing a genocide.

        Fuck the US for appeasing Jewish Hitler.
