8. Not really a cover-up. Just unclear

I don't think any of the parties have proof of the origin of the weapon, considered to be a missile best I can tell. It's not so much that someone knows the answer and is covering it up but just that we don't know.

Heard on NPR this morning that Rubio said we wouldn't target a school (which I 100% believe). NPR said that Israel's U.N. ambassador suggested the IRGC targeted the school (but the ambassador actually said he had seen reports to that effect, per Grok. many grains of salt needed, obviously).

We don't know the answer yet. It's a tragedy. No question. I think it's most likely a mistake or a malfunction. I can't imagine anyone doing it on purpose.
