   News flash, we interrupt the anti-Israel rant you are in the middle of writing (centered around the Hamas report of an Israeli attack on a hospital), to call attention to news that the rocket was fired by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Please update rant accordingly.

     @freemo I hunted down references and wrote something up. Unfortunately, it will not fit in this !#$!% 500 character limited space. So I uploaded it as a LinkedIn article. You should be able to view it without logging in or creating an account. Let me know how it works for you, and if there any major issues.

     @freemo US govt has confirmed. This will devolve into an argument about who is a neutral third party. The evidence linking it to the Islamic Jihad group: video from multiple angles, eye-witness reports, an analysis from the IDF, and an intercepted phone call between two terrorists. The evidence saying it was Israel: as far as I know, an immediate and unsupported accusation from Hamas? which they apparently knew was incorrect, but it still worked, with the help of decades of propaganda.

     @jaymcor why do you assume everything will devolve into an argument, when we have never had an argument?

     Why so scared to have a mature respectful discussion where people may disagree.. thats not an argument, that is sharing views.

     @jaymcor Seems neither of these stances have been confirmed yet, with both sides blaming the other.. Has there been any third party analysis to confirm this, both sides seem to make good arguments regarding the other.

     I myself have held off on having an opinion until i can get some fact.
