And Hamas' recording The Shrike Send a noteboard - 20/10/2023 02:44:12 PM

Though to be honest I'm not sure the IDF's word on it made much of a difference, given their equally obvious incentives to lie - it was the US weighing in, plus various independent sources analysing publicly available data more in depth, that swung opinion.

But the point was that news outlets in the West immediately took the word of the Gazans in accusing Israel. Now the narrative is that Israel has to show it didn't rather than the narrative starting with We Dont Know Who or How.

And of course this plays right into Hamas' propaganda aims since the Arab leaders with Biden were cancelled as a result.

Hospitals have external oxygen tanks and the blast was in the parking lot. damookster - 19/10/2023 10:55:58 PM 420 Views
If all of that is true, and I’m not saying it isn’t, how are 500-plus 200-plus dead? Vodalus - 19/10/2023 11:11:11 PM 424 Views
The current US intelligence estimate is 100-300 dead leaning towards the lower figure. damookster - 19/10/2023 11:34:25 PM 390 Views
