National Review: When Jihadists Kill ‘Civilians’
In a passionate speech, Biden embraces Israel as protests rage over Gaza blast. Media shift focus from Israeli strike to regional tumult, blaming protests on Gaza Blast. The media's biased coverage of the explosion caused by Hamas's confederate, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, raises questions about proportionality and the use of civilian infrastructure in warfare. The Palestinian jihadists' disregard for civilian lives aligns with their ideology and the concept of sharia supremacism. The Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas believe that dying in the way of Allah is their highest hope and an effective strategy in the pursuit of their mission to destroy Israel.

Daily Wire: IDF Releases Audio Of Hamas Admitting Islamic Jihad Fired The Rocket That Struck Near Hospital
The IDF refutes claims of Israel bombing a hospital in Gaza. Evidence shows Hamas members admitting Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists caused the explosion. The explosion occurred in the hospital's parking lot, not from an Israeli airstrike.
Fox News: Israeli TV footage appears to show Gaza hospital blast came from Palestinian rocket
Israeli media shared footage of rockets fired from Gaza falling short and landing on a hospital in Gaza. Israel claims it was missiles from Gaza, not their own rockets, that hit the hospital. Hamas blamed Israel for the blast, but President Biden supports Israel's assertion.
The Federalist: Corporate Media Are Regurgitating Hamas Propaganda
It all happened rather quickly on Tuesday — a matter of minutes, not hours. There was an explosion at a hospital in Gaza, the Hamas-run health ministry immediately claimed that some 500 people were killed and that the blast was caused by an Israeli missile, and every major media outlet took Hamas officials at their word and ran with that headline despite any corroborating evidence. By nightfall in the Middle East, angry mobs assaulted the embassies and military bases of Israel, the United States, and other Western powers. The streets of Baghdad, Istanbul, Beirut, Amman, Doha, Tehran, Cairo, Rabat, and even some European cities like Berlin and Barcelona were filled with hordes of enraged Hamas sympathizers who believed (and now will always believe) that Israel struck the hospital. The misreporting by then had served its purpose of providing cover for a fresh cycle of street violence and rioting. In this case, the stakes of such ops are rather high. Instead of mere outrage on social media, or even mere riots in the streets, corporate media misreporting about the hospital fueled violent mobs across the entire Middle East, and the Israel-Hamas conflict now appears to be on the brink of triggering a wider regional war.

Newsbusters: Time to Embarrass the Liberal Media for Siding With Terrorists on Hospital Strike
The liberal media uncritically accepted the false claims of the Palestinian Health Ministry that Israel targeted a Gaza hospital, when in reality it was a misfired Palestinian rocket. CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, Associated Press, Bloomberg, AFP, The Washington Post, and The New York Times all reported the false narrative. This biased reporting led to violent anti-Israel demonstrations and is a deliberate attempt to establish moral equivalency between Israel and Hamas.
