As I was walking to my office to write this article, I quietly uttered the phrase “the world is completely going mad” to myself. Just about every form of evil that you can possibly imagine is exploding all around us, and now “war fever” is sweeping across the entire globe. Unfortunately, the people that want war are going to get exactly what they have been clamoring for, and the consequences are going to be extremely bitter.
When Hamas claimed that an Israeli airstrike destroyed a major hospital in Gaza and killed at least 500 people, mainstream media outlets all over the world immediately believed them and broadcast those “facts” to their unsuspecting audiences.
As a result, we saw absolutely massive riots erupt in Islamic countries.
But it wasn’t true.
What actually happened is that a rocket that was fired from a cemetery behind the hospital by terrorists from Islamic Jihad malfunctioned and landed in the parking lot of the hospital…
Instead, Israel says the fatal blast was the result of a failed rocket launched by Palestinian terrorists.
Two Hamas operatives were allegedly recorded saying the rocket was fired by another Palestinian terror group, Islamic Jihad.
And meanwhile, Israeli TV broadcast footage appeared to show a rocket barrage being fired over the hospital from within the Gaza Strip.
The Israelis even captured audio of two terrorists talking about this right after it took place.
When this evidence was shown to U.S. officials, they concluded that Israel was not responsible for the damage at the hospital…
“While we continue to collect information, our current assessment, based on analysis of overhead imagery, intercepts and open source information, is that Israel is not responsible for the explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday,” said NSC spokesperson Adrienne Watson.

There was no Israel Defence Forces (IDF) air activity reported at the time, and the timing coincided with a salvo of rockets launched at Israel.
About 30-40% of Hamas’ rockets misfire and land short in the Gaza Strip.
I don’t know how Hamas thought that they were going to get away with this lie.
