There was a UN worker on CBC last morn saying there were no Hamas or weapons in the last UN school bombed and there were no human shields.

You're either willfully wrong to try and protect your point, or very misinformed.

There's no evidence whatsoever that Israel is targeting civilians. The facts are that we know Israel has taken actions to avoid civilian casualties through leaflets and warning.

We also know for a fact that Hamas has used UN schools and hospitals to hide weapons, and even attack from. We know Hamas encourages the use of human shields and isn't interested in protecting their own citizens, and often have even killed their own people.

It's a terrible atrocity that this happened, but based on the stories out of both sides I think the most likely explanation is that Hamas was attacking either from within this school or nearby in order to provoke an attack and succeeded in their goal of Israeli counter fire killing innocent civilians. But to pretend Israel is purposely targeting the school in order to kill these people, is rather ridiculous.
