And this wasn't from bombing or shelling or anything like that. The IDF went in and set up physical explosive charges to demolish the building.
What could even be the excuse for doing something like this?

For people committing genocide, it's important to destroy the cultural fabric of their victims.
You never know, there could be Hamas tunnels under that cultural fabric.
I guess, maybe that is where they take all the babies they collect to be beheaded?
All the talk of tunnels send like the new propoganda Boogeyman used to justify genocide.
But did the tunnels condemn Hamas first?
Buildings are just elaborate, above-ground tunnels.
Who needs an excuse anymore?
Isn't it already obvious what the end goal of Israel is? Israel wants to make Gaza inhabitable and get rid of all Palestinians there. They also want all of Jerusalem and all of the West Bank. And if you try to raise your voice you are immediately condemned as antisemite.
Imagine if Hamas did this in israel while claiming they were "freeing hostages".
It's like israel is trying to fully complete a terrorism bingo card.
This is just vandalism, to help the ethnic cleansing. In a while they will be saying that the place was a desert when they arrived...
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Footage, showing the demolition of the Palace of Justice, was published on 4 December by Israel media.
However, Sky News could not verify the video's date and the demolition could have taken place before this.
A photo posted on 20 November by a military correspondent for The Times of Israel showed IDF troops outside the courthouse located near the al Zahra municipality after they had captured the site.
In the video, the explosion appears to have started on the building's lower levels obliterating it as debris and smoke fly everywhere.
Israel has reportedly taken down dozens of Hamas government buildings since its ground operations began at the end of October.
The IDF stormed the southern city of Khan Younis in what they called the "most intense" day of combat in five weeks of ground operations against Hamas militants.

A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
