to be fair to isreal, they tried (and succeeded, mind you) to prevent loss of lives at the hospital
i don't know if they intentionally targeted the hospital, but, unless the entire hamas rocket launching facility for all of gaza was stuck in that hospital, they should not have bombed it, and tried to stay away from it (but still tell them to evacuate) so that even slightly stray bombs wouldn't have landed on it. would make more sense for some sort of commando action to take out rocket launchers, if any. i think they do need to explain why they hit that hospital. there is damage in the roof area according to the pictures
