The whole Hamas command base in a hospital narrative is pure nonsense. Do people just not understand that partisan resistance groups operate using independent cells precisely because having a central base of operations would create a central failure point for the whole organization?

I kept wondering if they believed that as well or was purely for the rubes. Like isn't the whole point of guerilla warfare that it's decentralized and somewhat grassroots via pockets of resistance fighters with varying degrees of coordination

It's highly unlikely they actually believed this. Seems like what they wanted was to just take over the hospital to use as their own base of operations.
