We are seeking information from the Israeli government and are engaged with the U.S. State Department to try to learn more. This is an incredibly disturbing development. We narrowly avoided a terrible loss of life. A dozen AP journalists and freelancers were inside the building and thankfully we were able to evacuate them in time.
AOC they were launching missiles from it. a strike like that is waaaaay too expensive to make sense if they werent. the israelis arent stupid
Europarl_IT should bring Israel to the international penal court for war crimes
AOC AP is a marxist organization and must be dealt accordingly.
AOC
AOC Biden defiled our sacred White House & US Capital by inviting Illegal Aliens to visit, while Marxist Democrats lockout Legal US Citizens with barbwire & armed guards! Biden & Harris let Illegal Alien Criminals &Terrorists walk over his Open Border to Kill, Rob & Rape US Citizens!
AOC AOC Wakeup & understand both sides! Hamas is a designated, terrorist organization sending 1,000s of 🚀s into Israel. 🇮🇱 has the right to defend itself. How about the Palestinians free themselves of Hamas, an organization whose charter calls for the destruction of 🇮🇱
AOC We’re “shocked”? Hamas hides in schools, hospitals, and mosques. And we’re “shocked” that they’re hiding in an Arabic news building?
I'm guessing the Hamas terror group was using AP as a human shield
AP made a deal with the devil...Hamas!
AOC hammasKillsPalestinianChildren Firing, storing rockets or performing acts of war from within densly populated areas is a common hamas mode of operation. Hamas wants pictures of dead Palestinian children on world press.
They gave them a 1hr warning to get out. Hamas just fire willy Billy from residential areas.
ISupportIsrael ❤️ 🇮🇱 🙏 from the 🇺🇸
RashidaTlaib Maybe, just maybe, try not sharing a building with a known terrorist organization
murray_nyc Horrific
I wouldn't be shocked and I wouldn't hold breath waiting for an answer. The Israeli military do as they please, with strict orders to kill, maim and destroy. They are a nongoverned nonstatutable murdering beast commanded by a compulsive mutated homnculus tumour Israelipm_ar
AOC You are leaving out that Hamas housed themselves in there as well.
AOC Get the facts
AOC Who fired the rockets first?
Here’s what your former reporter wrote back in 2014. Stop lying.
AOC isn’t it unfortunate that gary let Hamas use his technology and estate for terror purposes? don’t act so shocked.
AOC majority rules so majority lays down the law if they cant obey and continue buying weapons from terrorists and using them on Israelis than there's repercussions
How, at this point, is this a surprise to anyone?
I remember when the AP was a responsible news outlet. After this tweet it’s obvious integrity isn’t a priority.
AOC Y'all white-washed Israeli terror toward Palestinians for decades. Now you are centered in it and you are shocked? Wake up.
🦷🔩 it's well IJN
AOC Check yourself AOC 🤨
If a bunch of journalists are renting space with Hamas as the landlord and Hamas armaments onsite and don't observe that it might be an issue, maybe they are in the wrong business, just sayin...
AP were lucky along with Hamas you were warned in advance. Sit with terrorists and you will be treated as terrorists.
But you have insurance right? Who says counter battery fire needed to be mostly peaceful?
You should be seeking information on why you share office space with a terrorist organization that got the building bombed.
AOC
Somehow you present yourselves as the worst journalists ever! The whole world seems to know you shared building with Hamas, but you didn’t?
GreatDismal It's as if the AP had an office in the Reichskanzlei in 1945 and accused the Russians of bombing it.
War in Ukraine, Occupation, violation of the Budapest Memorandum on Nuclear Weapons. Stupid degenerates in the US - Israel is bad. Won't you resist when they come to kill you? How are the Russians in Ukraine or the Arabs in Israel?)
good riddance AP
AOC they gotta try to tell each other that this war is pointless. they must for their sakes. instead, they're making each other go to destructive ends. they gotta resist such destructive urges straight up, you know? this is a mockery for good pillars.
So he hasn’t been following this story very closely, eh?
AOC Then be careful who you nest with. Simple.
I am shocked that you have the audacity to call yourself a 'news' organization when you are clearly an extension of Hamas and IJ.
Quit sharing space with terrorists!!!
AP + Hamas = Pallywood
It's just property. Insurance will pay. Why do you care more about a building than about lives?
We are shocked and horrified the AP never reported that they were sharing a building with Hamas, a terrorist organization which deliberately located in the center of an area rich with innocent civilians.
He just mad he can’t get cheap rent anymore
You released a statement last year telling your journalists not to focus on property destruction. Follow your lead now
LOL
Perhaps don’t share offices with Hamas
RashidaTlaib What AP won’t tell you about
Sounds like a fascist trump move
You guys were sharing space with Hamas, which is irrefutable. They also were probably storing weapons and other things in there and were trying to use you as human shields. Instead of righteous indignation, you should be apologizing to the world for knowingly acting as human…
CDRosa Everyone should be horrified. No one should be shocked.
So you share office space with hamas? Ok then.
The question I have is what destabilized this region so much that it's experiencing a level of aggression (on both sides) we haven't seen in decades?
You shared a building with a terrorist group.
Hamas hiding behind the media just like they hide behind their own women and children. Cowards.
You're a news organization! Seriously, do you not yet understand that today's Israel is driven by a bunch of religiously fanatical NAZIS
So he’s not shocked by the number of dead children?
