The media has been full of headlines about the Israelis murdering hundreds of innocents at a Gaza hospital. Many Muslim countries are getting in on the act, including Iran – the only potentially nuclear-armed outsider mad-dog in the vicinity. Threatening escalation, region-wide demonstrations against Israel, even US Congresscritter Muslim apologists like Omar getting in the act.<\/p>\n
The Hamas-run health ministry initially claimed that between 200 and 300 people had been killed in what they said was an Israeli airstrike. They added that \u201chundreds are still buried under the rubble\u201d.<\/p>\n
An official later told Al Jazeera<\/em> that the death toll was closer to 500.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Two clues – the rapid escalation of casualties and claiming it was an Israeli airstrike. This is one of the most scrutinized air-spaces going, and neutral observers can tell if the Israelis launched a big strike. They didn’t. So whoo did?<\/p>\n
Footage of what appears to be an explosion at the hospital emerged<\/u> from Al Jazeera Mubasher later on in the evening. A second video from an Al Jazeera live feed showed<\/u> the same incident.<\/p>\n
That was geolocated<\/u>, which involves comparing the background in the video with satellite images to corroborate the location, by GeoConfirmed, an outfit that works alongside the Centre for Information Resilience and Bellingcat, an investigative outlet that itself works with international espionage agencies.<\/p>\n
The location was around the Al-Ahli Arabi Baptist Hospital in Gaza City<\/a>. The exact location of the fire was zeroed down to the southeast side of Palestine Square.<\/p>\n
It was also timestamped by the live feed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
When you are narked by Al-Jazeera…<\/p>\n
Both that and another Al Jazeera live feed showed a rocket being fired in the air and appearing to break up into two pieces, after which it hit what the geolocators believe is the Ahli Arab hospital.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So we know that this was part of an ongoing missile barrage, whose launch was claimed by Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ).\u00a0 Now on to the 500 claimed casualties:<\/p>\n
Early this morning, the Israeli Air Force posted a video<\/u> using drone footage of the aftermath of the explosion at the hospital.<\/p>\n
It appeared to show that the explosion had taken place in the car park outside the hospital. It also indicated that there had been little to no structural damage to the actual hospital.<\/p>\n
Further analysis<\/u> of the two scenes, supplemented by on the ground footage posted by Mr al Masri to Instagram, showed that \u201conly 3 cars show any clear sign of kinnetic\/structural damage\u201d (sic).\u00a0 CNN<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
There is little to no damage to the hospital itself. I count less than 20 damaged cars…so somehow it seems the Palestinians crammed 25 people into each parked car?\u00a0 Sure weren’t killed by building damage.<\/p>\n
Think, as the old “Mythbusters” show used to say, this one is “busted.”<\/p>\n
