Pamela Geller is a conspiracist and a bigot. I wouldn't use any bigot's website as a source of information; in fact, if that was the source I was using to confirm my preconceived notions, then I'd take a long look in the mirror.
Geller also promotes the theory that the tragedy at Rafah this past Sunday was staged and bodies were dragged in after the fact.
She's a gem, and my epistemic closure comment stands.

Edit: You do realize that journalists that are in Israel on behalf of foreign news organizations must agree in writing to the military censorship system, right?
As always, a fuller view of both sides is really nice to have and, if your world view allows, acknowledge.

All journalists in every war have to agree to military censorship. Otherwise they would report on things like troop movements that would give tactical advantages to the other side. But nice try.
Now can we discuss the actual tweet here.
Italian reporter, with no affiliation to Israel, tweeted that he witnessed Hamas rockets hit the school and Hamas men hiding the evidence.
It doesn't matter whose blog reported the tweet, the tweet stands for itself.
