"I thought hopitals were meant to be places exempt from being targetted from military action?
garry"

You thought right. However, it seems that Hezbollah had some of its crew in there seeking safety amongst civilians. That is NOT cricket, old chap. It then makes the hospital a place where combat operations are being prepared. And you know what thta means, don't you? Likely not, so allow me to explain. It means that it is a hospital until Hezbollah says it's not a hospital. It was just another Hezbollah base. You see, those cowardly bastards hide amongst the civilian population and do not care who is hurt. Dead non-combatants become good propaganda tools for them. These are the people you support.
