No apology necessary. As I said, sarcasm doesn’t translate easily. I’m sure Alex is not upset.

Shahar, Alex is nearly always being sarcastic. He basically meant the opposite of what he said. It’s not so easy to translate sarcasm into other languages.

aimming these wepones the hamas are using , is almost impossible.
hamas was not aming that primitive missle at nither the clinic nor the mall . it was aimed at ashkelon .
and that one unlike most of the missiles they shoot was what they call a sucsess – hurting of israel citizens.

as amain hamas said that same day – they will never recognise israels right to exist .

(so ,alex bensky, if you dont have anything wise to say i think its best if you dont say anything at all).

Alex, the clinic’s purpose is to keep Israelis healthy — definitely a nefarious purpose according to Hamas.

I don’t know, it seems fair to me. If the Israelis hit something like a clinic because Hamas “fighters” used it as a base for firing, the media generally don’t bother mentioning it. And no doubt this women’s health clinic in Ashkelon was being used as a shield for, I don’t know, some nefarious Israeli military action or another.
