Looks like a miss - either bombed out flattened rubble, or bombed out unflattened rubble.

Level it, block by block. They still have American hostages, probably dead. No mercy for them.

That’s not “massive.”

It’s just a couple story building that is demolished.

does the secondary explosion mean it was a hit on an ammo dump?

"Looks like a miss - either bombed out flattened rubble, or bombed out unflattened rubble."

Most of Hamas' assets and personnel are in tunnels underground. Maybe that is what they were hitting. In the explosion I saw a jet of smoke shoot straight up, is that an indicator of a deep penetration bomb?

Another indiscriminate bombing killing many civilians. I can no longer support Israel with Netanyahu in charge and I believe the majority of Americans are coming around to the same position. He has turned Israel into an international pariah, and the US is every bit as complicit in this as he is. It will no doubt contribute to anti-American feelings in all of the global south and seriously complicate our international relationships with those countries leaving an opening for Russia and China to fill.

If I didn’t know any better, I would think they are trying to make the place uninhabitable until billions of dollars would need to be spent to fix the destruction. But that wouldn’t make sense because the Gazans don’t have billions of dollars. Maybe the Israelis could spend the billions of dollars fixing it up but then they probably wouldn’t allow the Palestinians back in.

But then where would the Palestinians go?

Nobody else wants them.

Where do people fleeing shitholes go?

I know that for the past 10 years they have been going to the US and Europe.

I wonder if that is where the Palestinians will go?

Good thing I know better and there couldn’t be any plan to pawn Israel’s problems off on white countries who they have past grievances with.

Who says it was an "airstrike"?

Why is some guy taking phone video from behind cover?

“But that wouldn’t make sense because the Gazans don’t have billions of dollars.”

Actually the Gazans would have an estimated $4.5 billion from the gas fields just offshore from Gaza but Netanyahu is intent on keeping this for Israel proper. If you don’t think that this was an important part of the calculations for going to war then you are hopelessly naive.
