They had the misfortune of sharing the building with hamas terrorists. When I say misfortune, I mean AP knew but turned a blind eye.

That link shows no such thing.

> Senior defense establishment officials provided classified intelligence to Pentagon officials

It was classified intelligence. It wasn't that there was a sign in the lobby that said "3rd Floor: Associated Press, 4th Floor: Hamas".

sorry - hope this link helps. If you want to know more there's this website called google.com , where you can look for more information.

lmao is this a joke? This contradicts what you said.

There's "secret evidence" but Blinken denied seeing it.

The evidence is a secret, and even the people who have seen it are a secret! But we should totally just take Israels word for it, everyone except them will lie pathologically.

[FireBeyond]

LOL, what? I quoted the article YOU posted. Maybe you should have posted this one, then...

which also doesn't say what you say and is basically a hit piece.

Commentators on a website say it's laughable?

It literally has the US Secretary of State, forget AP, saying they had no evidence of it either, nor had they been shown it.

But AP MUST have known, right? Right?

"absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

in any case, I doubt there is any proof that I could offer that would be enough to change your mind. you already know what you want to believe, so this is just online pugilism.

be well !

> "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

lmao good you admit that there's no evidence. I guess you just believe this on faith due to your religious beliefs.

Going to have to do better than that if you want to use it as justification for blowing up billions.

They were never even clear about what the allegations were, but people involved that it was (at most) a media office, so even then it still wouldn't be a media office under any reasonable standard. (Meanwhile, check out where the IDF headquarters is located).

I get that in polar arguments, people tend to minimize and accentuate arguments.

The link doesnt back the claim in the 1st sentence.

Human shields irrespective of the case here are victims IMHO not deserving of the same treatment as those using them.

There are other articles claiming, the 2nd phase continued after journalists reached out for a delay

[KenArrari]

Wow that's crazy how literally every single person except IDF intelligence was willing to lie about it.

[Papirola]

it's crazy indeed, the lengths hamas will go to protect their image.
