Palestinians Bombing Themselves With Failed Rockets

by

In August 2022, more than one-fifth of the 1,000 rockets fired by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group toward Israel failed and landed in Gaza. These rockets caused one-third of the 44 deaths recorded.

Here is a map of the rockets fired from Palestinian groups that have landed in Gaza so far in the current war.

This is not to say that they should be underestimated. They are still very dangerous and is a dangerous and tragic situation.

Yesterday, Palestinian Islamic Jihad fired a rocket which failed and landed in the parking lot of a hospital.

Bad Information Sources

Non-government Organizations were spreading propaganda about the Gaza Hospital which was not destroyed but had a damaged parking lot.

NY Times, BBC, NBC and the media were repeating the claim of a destroyed hospital without confirming it was destroyed and reporting casualty figures when no one can get a body count from a destroyed building within a day.

  1. So why didn’t BBC/NYT jump to conclusion that Palestinians ‘intentionally’ murdered their people (- not just by accident)?

    Everybody knows: Arab-Islamic Palestinian radicals – Gaza regime, or Hezbollah have been using their non-combatants population as human shields, cannon fodders for decades: firing from among residents; storing weapons in mosques and under UNRWA schools; using ambulances to transport terrorists and weapons; military headquarters beneath hospitals, etc. It goes back to the early 1980s – Arafat’s initiating of this method in Lebanon. It always ‘worked’ to propagate against Israel.

    (Despite BBC’s longtime Israelophobe Jeremy Bowan lying already years ago – supposedly “not” knowing about Gaza regime using human shields and infamous Arafat’s buddy Neve Gordon’s propaganda book pushed on Wikipedia by two terrorists’-promoters, but facts are facts. Matti Friedman’s Nov.30.14 criticism of his former employer, the AP, is famous).

    Has the BBC/NYT ever stopped to explain why one certain structure was targeted but the one next to it is unharmed? Don’t Israel have powerful weapons?

    The question is, in the hurry to jump to conclusion — Oct.17.23 Palestinias-killing-Palestinians at Al Ahli hospital — at the same ‘enthusiastic’ fast broadcast, instead of blindly repeating Hamas/its Al Jazeera [dubbed Al Jihadzeera] mouthpiece blood libel, why not rush to blame Arab-Palestinians ‘intentionally’ killing their people, for that ‘dead baby strategy’ to defame Israel – which is the only side that really cares about non-combatant Arab-Palestinians: risking its soldiers lives in urban combat; roof knocking – while terror operatives might flee; always inproving precision weapons, etc.
    Why do you thing that is?

  4. Its not a bug, but a feature. Example yesterday being the very thing they do programatically. Obfuscate, lie, and propagate cumulative propoganda. If they hit a Mosque or a Hospital or some other notable place by accident, then they blame the Israelis. If individual Palestinians die from failed rockets, or as human shields guarding rocket batteries, then they just add it to the body count for that round of fighting at Israels door. BBC, NYT and the Academy at large then repeat ad nauseam. That’s literally the point. Increasing missile robustness w/o having ability to take ground is not useful to them, it’s just more expensive to get/produce. To some extent they don’t even care about their own fighters – there is a Telegram video of one of the Hamas channels showing a terrorist in a kibbutz being shot and wounded, and his pals just strip him of weapons and ammo and just carry on as he writhes in pain. They were not under fire at that moment. They could have carried him back to Gaza to get treated or treat him on the spot. These are the fundamental differences between a terrorist group and an actual Army, much less one abiding by international norms.
