This is the moment a 13-floor building housing Al Jazeera television and Associated Press is destroyed by an Israeli air strike in the Gaza Strip and sends a huge mushroom cloud into the sky.Israel 'destroyed Jala Tower in the Gaza Strip, which contains the Al Jazeera and other international press offices,' Al Jazeera said in a tweet. The strike on the building housing media offices came in the afternoon, after the building's owner received a call from the Israeli military warning that it would be hit.
Broadcast footage from Al Jazeera, the news network funded by Qatar's government, shows the building collapsing to the ground after the Israeli air strike,

wow. i'm not going to say there was no damage to adjacent structures, but it came down almost as clean as a planned demolition.

You have to dig way into the article to find....
'Israel alleged its 'fighter jets attacked a high-rise building which hosted military assets belonging to the military intelligence of the Hamas terror organisation'. It said: 'The building also hosted offices of civilian media outlets, which the Hamas terror group hides behind and uses as human shields.'
All headlines this morning are emphasizing 'media outlets', Associated Press, etc claiming this as an attack on press freedom.
The media outlets weren't 'human schields', they were willing, compliant platforms in the Hamas 'active measures' media operation.

Great job Israel! Two birds with one stone. The AP should not work with radical Islamist organizations.

And, as always, they were warned, given one hour to evacuate. Because Israel is careful not to deliberately kill innocent people, unlike the Palestinians who use children as human shields.

Hey, HAMAS, if you're watching, CNN says you can hide rent-free in any building they occupy in Gaza.

Cool. Level them ALL. Gaza City should look like Dresden in late 1944.
Here's the goal.

War will continue until one side decides that the cost of continuing is too high, be it in money or blood or both. The goal of a military operation should be to make the cost to the enemy so unbearably high that they will decide that peace is their only possible path, not continuation of war.

That was beautiful! Reminded me of the precision of our missiles going down the chimneys of buildings in Baghdad during Desert Storm.
Note to Hamas - Don’t mess with the IDF!

Fourth of July fireworks came early this year. I wonder if the audience cried “ooh”, “ahh”.

Not much difference, #7. The AP is a relentless apologist for terrorists and a 100% propaganda outlet for the left. Almost all of their "news" articles are opinion pieces with fake statistics.

Silly question, #7. The logos are fairly different....
Hah!, other than that, no significant differences.

Judgement Day! I think there is a call from the IDF to the WH giving JB 10 minutes to evacuate.

How about the headquarters of NBC,CBS, and ABC. Paint targets on and fire away.

Associated Press, Al Jazeera, and Hamas all in the same building. What is wrong with this picture?
Out of curiosity I queried who owns AP. Answer: Reuters. Oh. Who owns Reuters? Rothchild's Media. Yeah, those Rothchild's. Fascinating. Never knew that.
