At least 10 people were killed in the attackmost of them childrenand some sources claimed the death toll was as high as 30. Palestinian sources were quick to blame Israel, claiming that an Israeli fighter jet fired missiles directly at the playground and nearby hospital. Israel denied the accusations, saying that Hamas rockets aimed at Israel from the area misfired, and struck both the school and the hospital.

In the 1930s, those whom we would today call “liberals” supported the guy on top.
Is that a trick?
Both, of course.
Only AFTER the fact did they denounce Hitler.
Liberals preferred Italy's Fascism and The Nazi's Socialism so much so that they want to bring it here.
