Like Ukraine, Gaza has now swallowed the Foreign Policy thread, so it deserves a place where everybody knows its name.

Good Times Bad Times talks about Gaza. They have had good analyses before about European economic issues, and Ukraine.
One very sobering thought from a Pentagon official talking about how there are only 2 ways to clear Hamas from the urban environment: (1) dismount infantry and go floor by floor, like the Marines in Baghdad, (2) stand well back and bomb apartment buildings down to their basements, like Mariupol. In each case, there is a massive civilian death toll.

IDF is saying Islamic Jihad did it by accident with a stray missle. Normally I would call bs but something definetly seems off.
Whoever did it might have forced this war into something that can't be walked back."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

Al Jazeera anchor doing a great job hammering Osama Hamdan, the Hamas representative, on why they don't release the civilian Israeli hostages. He actually got the guy to say there was no good reason not to. Actual journalism on network teevee. It was suddenly 1978 for a moment there.Cornell University

It would be staggeringly and wildly stupid for Israel to purposefully blow up a hospital in Gaza. That said, mistakes happen and their aggression could absolutely lead them to accidentally do this.
And the same for the Hamas side. I believe Hamas is pure evil, but I feel like - without evidence - that a self-destruction like this would be a substantial step towards historical evil.
So where does that lead us? Sadly, we can't trust any of the video we see online. We can't trust the loudest voices, be they the IDF, Hamas leadership, Trump or Shaun King.
this is heartbreaking.I gotta little bit of smoke and a whole lotta wine...Comment
