At least thirty people were reportedly killed and 53 wounded in an explosion in a UN-run school in the town of Jabalya in the northern Gaza Strip, according to Palestinians. The IDF issued a statement saying the school grounds were used by terrorists to fire mortar shells at the troops.
The infantrymen returned mortar shell fire into the school grounds, the army said. Defense officials told The Associated Press that booby-trapped bombs in the school triggered the secondary explosions which killed scores of Palestinians on the site.
Notice that the source of the casualties was the booby traps set by Hamas, not the Israeli shells. LGF has video showing Hamas launching mortal attacks from the school. The school’s headmaster was also a notorious rocket-builder.
RAFAH, Gaza Strip, May 5 (Reuters) – By day, Awad al-Qiq was a respected science teacher and headmaster at a United Nations school in the Gaza Strip. By night, Palestinian militants say, he built rockets for Islamic Jihad.
The cowards stage their attacks from schools and hospitals in order to win a propaganda war, hoping that the media will ignore the fact that they were attacking from the schools first. And the media eats it right up. We hear comparisons of Israel to Germany under Hitler, but they ignore the fact that Hamas’ official charter calls for the death of all Jews everywhere! What a strange, sick world we live in.
