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.

      The tragedy of the Hamas v Israel conflict? No.

      The misspelling of “parking lot,” in the comment I replied to? Yes. I am joking about that in particular, because I have to find humor somewhere.
