The article is talking about two things at once and trying to pretend they are the same thing. The us hit the military base with a tomahawk missile, and the school was hit by a missile from "nooneistakingaccountabilityville". They are trying to act like the US hitting the military base proves that they also hit a school like a week ago.

No, the school was hit by multiple missiles, not one, around the same time the military clinic was hit.

You can tell yourself that multiple air defense missile all failed the same way and fell at the same place, but saying that a single missile (especially air defense missile) erased the school is wrong.

This does sort of reveal the genius in Israel partnering with the US on this. At any point both parties can deny responsibility, leaving plausible deniability for both parties.
It's not genius at all. We all know that both the US and Israel are responsible for spending trillions of taxpayer's dollars on illegal wars of aggression and genocide. We weren't fooled by W, we weren't fooled by Obama, or Trump, or Biden.

Look at how the world has watched the US starving Cuba for decades, to take one example of many. Every year, every country except the US and Israel vote in the UN to condemn the sanctions. And every year, no one actually helps Cuba, because America threatens insane consequences.

Not genius. Just threats. Not very smart at all, if we want a liveable planet.

Statistically nobody is reading the article, probably just the headline, so this has had its intended effect.

Which to say is likely not political at all, just ragebait to encourage interactions. HN is no less immune to this tactic than Twitter, Tiktok, etc.

Exactly. I hoped that people here would pay a bit more attention.
Some things are legitimately enraging. It is not ragebait to discuss the horrific things done by the Trump regime.
