Aight y’all, so I think some folks have me sideways here —

“There was a legitimate target next to it” is NEVER and excuse for blowing up a hospital, school, or other sensitive civilian target. It happens all the time, and it is always wrong.

Also, I don’t trust Iran worth a fuck. I just also don’t trust Israel or the current US government. Everyone is lying. What I know is hospitals in Gaza, Israel, Iran, Sudan, and Ukraine keep getting blown up, and that is wrong.

@mcnado In the "zero fucks given"-time this is as good an excuse as it needs to be. It´s something to bridge the time until the next atrocity draws the attention, the "thoughts and prayers" of warfare. Back in the Gulf War at least I could believe it to be an oopsie, these days more often than not I think it´s on purpose.
@mcnado In Dr. McNado's post, point #1 was it's never right to hit a hospital.
Point 2 came after point 1.
Clearly people did not read the whole toot.
<disgusted>
Dr. McNado is extremely consistent in how they call for nonviolence. Why are you picking on the good Dr? You are painting yourself as a bad-faith agitator.
@mcnado
I guess I have already blocked the bad actor, I did not see their post. But I see Dr. McNado's post, it makes me sick : -(
No worries mcnado ... I'll be fine. Just trying to support you.
@mcnado "Targets" were built where they are on purpose.
If there is a hospital next to a military target, they are both military targets or both "hospital targets".

@mcnado we agree sort of.

Hamas built their military sites UNDER hospitals not caring about patients and thinking Israel wouldn’t go after them because of the optics. Hamas also purposely aims for civilian sites.

Israel used to maintain world-class levels of restraint for many years, and got shat upon. They no longer do this.

I don’t want to see anyone die, but this isn’t a case of both sides being equally bad, at least not until recently.

@Blueteamsherpa perhaps. They’ve been bulldozing homes, shooting kids, and generally being assholes as long as I’ve been reading the news. Then there’s that time they sank a US ship and repeatedly strafed the survivors. Oh, and the time they killed the wrong guy in another country. Either way, flattening everything including hospitals in an area where over a million people are trapped is pretty fucked up.
