Editor's Note: These videos have not been confirmed or dated. With that said, they do appear to show Israeli airstrikes taking down two sections of a Al-Shorouk Tower, a 20-story commercial building with known occupants that include Hamas media. The terrorist group has been known to use such buildings to store and even fire rockets into Israel.

Information out of Gaza City is sketchy at best with propaganda free flowing to incite international outrage. But as has often been noted, Hamas utilizes "human shields" at every level of their terrorist operation, including the placement of rockets in populated areas. They launch rockets from school yards and hospitals, residential areas and atop local businesses in an effort to force an impossible choice on the Israelis: Accept that rockets will rain down on Israeli civilians or strike civilians in the Gaza Strip who are forced to stay in close proximity to legitimate military targets. We are running this story, not to aid in the propaganda of Hamas or their leftist allies around the world but to get ahead of the false narratives that are certain to spark from this if the videos prove to be authentic.
