I think the logical flaw here is believing one needs to get information to control the narrative.

Top ranking Democrat and Republican on Senate Intelligence Committee: ‘Confident’ Israel not responsible for Gaza hospital explosion

The Senate Intelligence Committee chair and vice chair echoed U.S. President Joe Biden in saying they were confident Israel was not responsible for Tuesday’s mass-casualty event at a Gaza hospital.

“The Senate Intelligence Committee has received and reviewed intelligence related to the attack on Al-Ahli Hospital
in Gaza. Based on this information, we feel confident that the explosion was the result of a failed rocket launch by militant terrorists and not the result of an Israeli airstrike,” said Sens. Mark Warner and Marco Rubio.

“I was deeply saddened and outraged by the explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday. And based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you,” Biden said

This is one of those times when Biden’s folksy uncle bit is getting incredibly offensive.

I can’t say for sure who blew up that hospital but either way we’re talking about a human rights atrocity, not a freaking sports tournament.

Per some of the evidence that’s cited in that article, along with similar reporting that I’ve seen elsewhere, I’m inclined to think that this specific horrific explosion was probably not from an Israeli airstrike. But damn, did you see this line from the article?

6000! Even if only 10% of those bombs each caused one unintended death, that would still be more civilian deaths than were caused by the explosion at this hospital.
