What's the logic of Israel forecasting that they will strike a hospital, an act likely to bring severe international condemnation and end potentially end all support for their operation.

No, no, no. You said, "It would make perfect sense that Israel would ask to have the hospitals evacuated, to avoid the exact scenario that just took place from happening [a failed Hamas missel hitting the hospital]."
That's like this exchange from your favorite western serial.
Sherriff: Bart, you need to get out of town. You got until sundown or I'm gonna shoot you in the face.
Black Bart: Sherriff, I think this calls for good old fashioned gun fight!
- shots fired -
Sherriff: Look everyone, Black Bart shot himself in the face!!!
Yeah, after the threat that just doesn't sell. The suspension in disbelief is just too great here. Not after more than 24 hours of sabre rattling.
