Everyone is Hamas. Especially the babies, those are extra Hummus—I mean Hamas.

Anyone who runs is Hamas! Anyone who stands still... is well-disciplined Hamas!

Baby hamas are the worst kind of hamas. They are easiest to train, and sit there not moving, shielding other hamas.

The IDF denies it demanded that Gaza City's Shifa Hospital evacuate within an hour, saying it was responding to requests by the medical center's director who asked for a safe route out for those who wish to leave.

"This morning, the IDF acceded to the request of the director of the Shifa Hospital to enable additional Gazans who were in the hospital, and would like to evacuate, to do so via the secure route," the IDF says in a statement.

"At no point, did the IDF order the evacuation of patients or medical teams and in fact proposed that any request for medical evacuation will be facilitated by the IDF," it says.

"Medical personnel will remain in the hospital to support patients who are unable to evacuate," the IDF adds.

The IDF also says that it provided additional food, water, and humanitarian aid to Shifa overnight.

Mohammed Zaqout, the director-general of hospitals in Gaza, reiterated to Al Jazeera: “I categorically deny these false allegations [from the Israeli army] … I am telling you we were forced to leave by gunpoint.”

More than 7,000 people, including patients in critical condition and newborn babies fighting for their lives, were sheltered inside al-Shifa. The facility has been under siege by Israeli soldiers for several days.

A doctor in al-Shifa told Al Jazeera that at around 9am local time (7:00 GMT), they received the order from the Israelis to leave in “one hour”, but that it was “impossible” to evacuate everyone.

You don't want witnesses if you are going to plant evidence. It takes time to setup a Hamas head quarters.

They need more time after the whole “this thing that is totally a roster of Hamas personnel, please ignore the names of the days of the week. What are you saying? no, this is not a calendar. WTF, western media isn't supposed to know how to read Arabic” debacle.

Wouldn't be surprised if they say, tunnels are sealed and they have to open it and it will take time, in 6 months they will comeback and say, we open the tunnel and we found weapons of mass destruction and human bones.
