I’d like to find out that it was a freak accident from an aging oxygen cylinder left near the tanks of diesel for the emergency generator and that a running stray dog hit the oxygen cylinder, tipping it until it fell, broke the valve, which also created the spark which caused the explosion of the super oxygenated diesel fuel.
I’d like it to be true that this wasn’t caused by humans trying to harm other humans.
The not-Israel explanation is still an accident (albeit in the pursuit of humans killing humans somewhere else). At least that version is more “war is horrific” and less “war crimes”.
Perhaps its just my “empathy gauge” is pegged at 100 when seeing a hospital blown up and dead children. The “it was Islamic Jihad that did it accidentally” answer is equally horrific to me as the “Israel did it intentionally” answer. Friendly fire on soldiers is a tragedy. Friendly fire on a civilian hospital with dead children is equally horrific as a war crime to me.
I’d like neither one to be true.
