Terror Hospital

Shifa Hospital is a terrorist headquarters, doubling as a medical facility, but it's not going bye-bye any time soon:

Asked why Israel was not acting against Shifa Hospital, Dichter answered that an attack on a hospital could not be carried out "for obvious reasons." Prevention and treatment?...

"Shifa is in the middle of a very crowded area in Gaza and you would have to get through half-a-million Gazans to get to the hospital and arrest Hamas people there. So that's not doable. Striking the hospital is out of the question for obvious reasons. So in this case we have to just bite our tongues," he said.

If the IDF can't point weapons at the hospital, pointing cameras at it to demonstrate clearly its use as a terror base would have some PR benefit?
