Reliable tactical data sources don't exist in the Middle East, which is problematic because bad information moves faster than facts and inspires global protests and violence; Gaza and Palestinian health officials provide inflated numbers making it impossible to assess ground reality.

US Congress members Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar and major media outlets ran with Hamas narrative blaming Israel for hospital bombing before investigating; after facts emerged showing Gaza militants fired the misfired rocket, media and politicians had already spread misinformation globally.

The spread of lies and misinformation by US Congress and media can be characterized charitably as unfortunate reality of war, or less charitably as members of Congress and media becoming mouthpieces for terrorist organizations Hamas when it fits their narrative.

The hospital bombing was fired by a rocket from Gaza (not Israel), evidenced by convincing missile footage and a cell phone intercept of the perpetrator saying 'oh my God what did we just do'; Biden's intelligence assessment confirmed this.
