Footage widely shared on social media showed a massive blast at Israa University, prompting US President Joe Biden’s administration to ask Israel for clarification.

The IDF, in response to a query, said the demolition of Israa University on January 17 and the approval process of the controlled explosion was “thoroughly investigated” by the head of the Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, and presented to Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi.

According to Army Radio, Hiram claimed that his troops felt in danger due to intelligence that Hamas had a network of tunnels under the university, and feared that its operatives could ambush them.

Unrelated controversy currently surrounds Hiram over his order to fire a tank shell at a home in the southern community of Be’eri amid a hostage situation during Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, possibly killing some of the captives.

Before the war, Hiram was tapped to be the next commander of the Gaza Division, a move that appears to currently be on hold amid the war and the controversy.

    Yeah lol, vote for the Orange Man. The GOP has such a strong track record of caring about brown people.

    Or maybe take your Republican’t psyop drivel somewhere else you shill.

      So you are saying that there is no difference between Biden and Trump on Gaza. So if it is something you care about then there is no point in voting for either.

      Criticism of Biden is not an endorsement of Trump.

        No.

        I am saying if Biden doesn’t change his policy by taking direct action neither, I, nor millions of other Americans, will vote for him.

        However that makes you feel. I don’t care. Unless Biden changes his policy with actions, he will lose the election.

          I agree. The person i replied to seems to think that any criticism of Biden is an endorsement of Trump. The only people who seem to want “mild” conservative policy are Democrats. No conservative voters are going to vote for a center-right (by American standards) Democrat over a Republican. Democrats need to offer an actual alternative, nit just toned down Republican talking points.

            Biden should absolutely be criticised for the Palestine genocide and other things as needed. But that’s not what you did. You said you’d not vote for him which effectively supports Trump. If Trump had shown any indication that he’d handle this (or any important) issue any better, then sure, that could make sense. But this is just cutting everyone’s nose off to spite your face.

              Has it? He was a senator for Decades because DuPont backed him, and he was Obama’s VP pick because he was from Pennsylvania originally. He ate absolute shit every time he ran in the Democratic presidental primary until 2020 where he coasted on Trump being the worst president in 100 years and his popularity as Obama’s VP.

                I just mean (for bidens whole career) the democrats saying you have to vote for us because the other side is ten times worse.

                It’s just that in this case the same old rhetoric shows the absolute disaster this idea is…. Vote for Biden because genocide is better than super sized genocide that Trump would bring

                Also I am fairly certain Biden is from Delaware not Pennsylvania and Delaware is known for having awesome corporate sponsors, but that’s without me looking it up

        So what you’re saying is that the current situation in Gaza shouldn’t change who you vote for in November?

          I’m saying that Biden is going to need to do something about the situation if he wants to win. People don’t owe him their vote

      This is how Trump won last time. I know you can’t help yourself but please, just try to say nothing at all because this arrogant drivel is exactly why the Dems have trouble turning out their vote.

        But by not voting for Biden they enable his opponent…

          Maybe if Biden cares about democracy, he’d do the things that voters want?

          that’s one story you can tell. you could also say by not voting for biden, they are not enabling genocide.

          and if they vote for literally anyone else (de la cruz, west, stein, etc), they are actually voting against all the other candidates, including the two outspoken advocates for genocide.
