Yeh I know, Israel has probably already released a press report stating "There were militants inside firing rockets from the clinic", this is their standard reply to every piece of information which blackens their name. So this article is only for those bothering to 'think', not for those who've switched their minds off and handed over control to the Zionist media's autopilot.

Israel destroys medical clinic in Gaza
Sun, 11 Jan 2009 18:50:02 GMT
Charity groups say Israeli aircraft have bombed and destroyed a clinic in the Gaza Strip, shortly after targeting Hamas' ministry of culture.
The medical facility - administered by the Middle East Council of Churches - had been evacuated prior to the Sunday evening attack and no one was injured in the incident.
"The clinic is completely destroyed with all its equipment and medical supplies," said Zack Sabella from the council's Department of Service to Palestinian Refugees.
"Minutes before the missile hit the building, which hosts the clinic, the Israeli Air Force fired a warning missile next to it, forcing all residents of the building and the adjacent buildings to flee the area. A short while after, the army directly hit the building and razed it completely," He added.
The building was registered as a medical facility and was given assurances that it would not come under attack.
The attack on the medical center came minutes after Israeli forces reduced the ministry of culture's building to rubble.
Since the launch of Operation Cast Lead on December 27, Israeli forces have repeatedly targeted public buildings, civilian houses, schools, mosques, hospitals, as well as government buildings including the seat of Hamas Parliament.
Tel Aviv has intensified the incursion into the costal region, pounding the civilian areas across the populated enclave despite UN resolution 1860 which calls on Israel to put and 'immediate' end to the onslaught.
The offensive has so far claimed at least 890 lives and another 3,800 people wounded. Palestinian medics say women and children are among the victims.
