You should double check whats going on. I'm sure everyone who jumped to conclusions is going to look like a clown in the morning.
I couldn't say that confidently when it happened, but now with new information, absolutely.
The more certain a person is about what is happening over there, the more I assume they are believing whatever they want to hear.
Absolutely not, at first I thought it was infact an Israeli airstrike, but upon pouring over multiple angles of video that has been geographically confirmed, it's fairly damning, and fairly convincing that it was not in fact, an Israeli airstrike.
The incident had been broadcasted live by Al Jazeera too, so even if you have a bias in favor of Hamas and Palestinian struggles, all signs point to a self-inflicted tragedy.
Despite that, its far too late since everyone already started protesting at embassies in greater numbers. PA president and Jordan leader cancelled meetings with Biden.
The situation is deteriorating rapidly.
