Would anyone really target a hospital, on purpose?
I know it's more than possible, given previous attacks on religious centers and public markets, but it just seems beyond comprehension.

No. Sorry, that caption wasn't altogether clear. I linked the story below.
The attack was a US missile strike on a building about 60 feet from the hospital.
I just threw this up because I was struck by the scale of the damage.
