I am disgusted by my actions.
Before we start this thread can we all agree to condemn your actions?
I am ashamed of my words and deeds.

Haha! I am pacifist and I did not open the link!
Shit, they caught me!
Yeah? So? What's the big deal?
It was a parking lot fire. No hospital blew up. The propaganda has to stop.
Yeah, I don't agree with what Israel is doing in Gaza and am under no illusions that the IDF doesn't do bad things, but the evidence just doesn't back up the "hospital airstrike with 500 dead" claims. Footage shows a rocket fired from inside Gaza misfiring and landing in a parking lot next to the hospital. The geolocation of the footage has been verified. The visible damage is burned up cars in a parking lot. The actual hospital wasn't hit by anything and the damage is way more consistent with burning rocket fuel than a high explosive detonation, which would have left a massive crater where the parking lot used to be.
Genuine question - 500 people died, right? Did that actually happen, and was it a result of this?
500 would be an insane death toll even for an actual JDAM strike on a building. Currently, however, nothing indcates that this was an Israeli strike. Their bombs are massive compared to the ones Hamas is using. The parking lot which the rocket hit is barely damaged except for the damage caused by fire. If it was Israeli bomb there would be a massive crater on the ground. There is some DISTURBING NSFL FOOTAGE that seems to indicate, that there indeed was several casualties in that strike but I'd guess we're more like talking of tens, not hundreds of dead.
Most probably that many people did not die.
It's a lie. 500 people didn't die because of that. Propaganda.
No. The number of people dying was almost certainly smaller.
