...Israel has tried to justify the bombing. An army spokeswoman told The Chronicle that the targeted buildings were used as “a research and development center for Hamas weapons, including Qassam rockets." …

Islamic University officials deny the Israeli allegations. Yet even if there is some merit in them, it is common knowledge that practically all major American and Israeli universities are engaged in research and development of military applications and receive money from the Pentagon and defense corporations. Weapon development and even manufacturing have, unfortunately, become major projects at universities worldwide — a fact that does not justify bombing them.

Sounds like a win-win to me. All wars should be based upon bombing each others universities. Whichever country bombs the most universities of the opposing country wins. As a consolation prize to the losing country they have all their universities in tatters.

They also bombed government buildings. Everything is just "collateral damage" you know...they really don't mean to hurt anyone who is not a militant. (right)
