As we previously reported, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) took out a building that they said contained Hamas military intelligence operation.
It also contained offices for the Associated Press and Al Jazeera, among other media outlets.
Prior to hitting the building, the IDF warned the media outlets and others in the building to get out before they took down the building.
Some in media were upset that Israel took out the building. But as we noted, how could media not know that Hamas had an operation going on in the building, if they were sharing the building with them?

The Hamas operation in the building was military intelligence. The building's roof was covered with RF communication antennas.

It would not be much of a news organization, if they did not know who was in the building they occupied. AP was not staying at a resort, but in a terrorist country. I would think they would have some security that informed them of any nearby threats. AP and the rest of media haven't complained about 1500 rockets hitting Israel, their people killed, and buildings destroyed. This is loathsome behavior on the part of AP, and frankly, is not believable.

At least the Israelis gave them enough warning to get their people out before they flattened that terrorist headquarters. To me, I'm not sure who is the worst terrorists in that bunch: Hamas, Associated Press ro Al Jazeera!!!
When is the last time any muslim terrorists gave anyone in Israel any warning?!?!?!? Yet the Israelis are always painted as the "bad guys".

The Arse Press and Aljeery both knew Hamas was in the building. Who are they kidding? Like Joey, both these non-reporters love terrorists. I wouldn't be surprised if Joey sent more money to the PLO to replenish their rocket stash.

Not only should the Israelis not be warning them, they should be targeting them. I mean if they really want to survive. They're not called the enemedia for nothing.

If and when you support the enemy; you ARE the enemy! Israel should never have warned them!

Did you ever notice that if you add a few letters and rearrange a few, 'Associated Press' spells HAMAS?r

Associated Press lies about this why should I believe their reporting? I don't read anything that has AP in the headline they are losers just like all the rest of the left. Hamas was in the house and AP didn't know it, how stupid is that?

Anyone living abroad (especially journalists and Embassy Second Secretaries) quickly learns that things are not always as they seem. It cannot have been a bolt from the blue that AP "discovered" Hamas was running intelligence operations in the strategic building.
I'm reminded that, in Tokyo, the American Club is located right next to the Soviet Embassy. That's not coincidence. It's not too hard to figure out why bonafide Club members can't access any of the basement floors.

For AP and AJ, as investigating reporters, to NOT HAVE known that they were sharing office space with terrorist Hamas would be akin to their gross incompetence and deceit in saying that BIDEN DID NOT STEAL THE ELECTION.

Just like the CIA had a "secret" annex in Benghazi that triggered the attacks on the embassy. Obummer and his drunken hag Hillary tried their best to cover the weapons supply depot but the Libyans knew. We all play the same game, some are just better at it than others.

The IDF need to back away from ROE/PCWarLite now! War is about winning or losing and it must be decisive with NO debating! Easy stuff; right Vern? Vern says EZ stuff!

AP says they were shocked..shocked I say to find out Hamas was in their building.
A good way to find out who is in your building is check the directory in the lobby. If it says Al Jazeera 12th floor...Hamas on 13th floor, there is a good chance they are in the building.
Also, the armed security in the lobby should have been a clue.

What a decision to make. Do we believe the AP with its track record of bias or Israel?

It was a mistake to provide any warning. Now a bunch of propagandists can continue their work

AssPress, consider yourselves fortunate that the IDF gave the heads up to get out. You were no more than human shields.

Palestine lobbed the first missile. That started it. If I were in Israel I would vote to nuke them. Islam won't rest until they rule the world. Israel is the first goal. Our country is next. Look at what is in charge now. All Muslim sycophants.

He is either lying or clueless about what goes on in his organization, or perhaps a little of both People at ABC knew. See the Gateway Pundit article below
But let's not fool ourselves about what this is all about. The Abraham Accords was perhaps the single most significant accomplishment of the Trump administration, the framework for a permanent peace in the Middle East. Historic in both the method for achieving it, beginning from points of commonality rather than the grievance lists the State Department spends decades assembling, and in its impact. Peace in the Middle East.
Both the Iranians and the Biden crew burn with fury at that. SO, Iran tries to bust up Arab unity by sending in their proxy Hamas fighters to shoot rockets into Israel to draw an Israeli response and light the area on fire, and the Biden crew (State Department) sits quietly and hopes the Abraham Accords collapse. And ABC fans the flames. That is what is going on. There is no more to it than that

Now the Shiite Arabs can use Biden and UN funds to rebuild the towers. Keeps them off the streets. They can also dig the tunnels again. Enjoy.

Sit in the same building with a Hamas intel operation and, guess what, you are putting yourselves on the target. Too bad if you are too stupid to figure it out and move, or don't go their to begin with.
Life is all about choices.
This was a very bad choice by AP.
And I shrug.
