Israel was photographed loading dumb bombs on their jets the day before this. They are running low on guided options after using so many so fast.

Learn about how airbusrst has different effects than a standard ground burst. Then ask yourself why you wish to believe the stronger military force didn't cause a huge explosion, when the weaker military force has no known capabilities to make such an explosion.

You don't think airbursts have shockwaves that break tile roofs? The video didn't look like an airburst but, if it was, it would have had to have been right at roof level. There were also scorch marks in the parking lot that were indictive of the burning off of unspent rocket fuel.

There is no evidence that the explosion was larger than what Hamas weaponry can produce.

There was a fire caused by the blast. You can see the bent down roofs on many of the cars in the parking lot that matches the angle of an air burst pressure wave.

Keep lapping up the propaganda if that's your kink though.
