Gaza School Bombing Story A Lie

by Eric on January 30, 2009

Hamas’ story about the bombing of a United Nations school is starting to unravel. Eye witnesses and people in the school at the time have come out with the truth, and the truth is not what the news reported.

According to a report, “evidence and interviews with several eyewitnesses, including a teacher who was in the schoolyard at the time of the shelling, make it clear: While a few people were injured from shrapnel landing inside the UNRWA compound, no one in the compound was killed. Those who died in the incident were all outside, on the street. Stories of one or more shells landing inside the schoolyard were inaccurate. There was no Israeli shooting into a schoolyard crowded with refuge-seekers.”

Read the entire report at The Globe and Mail.
