President Joe Biden was asked by a reporter in Israel on Wednesday what made him confident that the Israelis weren’t behind the explosion that killed hundreds at a Gaza hospital on Tuesday.

Biden responded that it was “the data I was shown by my Defense Department.”

Two U.S. officials told ABC News the Pentagon independently concluded the Gaza hospital blast was likely caused by an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that fell short of its target.

    Yeah it’s so fair that they get to live in an open air prison that’s been under blockade for 20 years. You make it sound like Gaza is a functioning country.

      An objectively ineffective blockade based on the amount of rocket fire coming out of Gaza.
