Only one of three shells fired by Israel hit the school, and two hit the target they were aiming at, sez Israel today.
Hmmm...well I didn't hear that. The article I read, said that one member of the IDF said that they knew Hamas was in the area (not in the school) but decided to bomb the school so that they might be able to kill the Hamas militants in the area. Then the article goes on to say that other members of IDF said Hamas WAS in the school, and it just kept flip-flopping back and forth like that.

Of course now I want to link the stupid story, I can't find it anymore.
