I want to speak to the manager of state sponsored terrorism. Here are my recepits
Turns out human shields are pretty flimsy when your enemy doesn’t give a shit about murdering people
This isn’t even one of those “sacrifice as many of them to protect your own” type fascist situations, they’re even killing Israeli civilians. The goal is to kill as many Palestinians at all costs
they’re using human shields, why would we stop bombing and shooting? that means they’re super-duper evil and we have to shoot and bomb even more!
Those filthy, uncouth blaggarts in the colonies are using human shields! Why, they should don bright red coats and stand in line formation like civilized gentlesirs!
Hamas should conduct all of their operations out of designated and identifiable military installations. These buildings would not immediately be reduced to rubble. I am very intelligent.
It’s not a coincidence that human shield rhetoric comes from the mouths of invaders. Attacking a people where they live is the gameplan but liberal sensibilities prevent you from outright saying that. So you flip victimhood on its head: it’s really their fault for being in your way in a warzone! Nod along and agree with how irresponsible the enemy is and how little they care for their own people.
its so strange that people america doesnt like live in cities with other people and have families. so many human shields everywhere
so this is why they’re atomizing western society! to avoid the human shield situation in case of war. amazing foresight, really.
They pre-empt with human shield claims so that the inevitable civilian casualties can be blamed on the victims
damn this village i blew up was full of human shields wtf
Meanwhile in Isn’t Real’s Mad Max thunderdome they tie children onto their windshields
The Mission investigated four incidents in which the Israeli armed forces coerced Palestinian civilian men at gunpoint to take part in house searches during the military operations (chap. XIV). The men were blindfolded and handcuffed as they were forced to enter houses ahead of the Israeli soldiers. In one of the incidents, Israeli soldiers repeatedly forced a man to enter a house in which Palestinian combatants were hiding. Published testimonies of Israeli soldiers who took part in the military operations confirm the continuation of this practice, despite clear orders from Israel’s High Court to the armed forces to put an end to it and repeated public assurances from the armed forces that the practice had been discontinued. The Mission concludes that this practice amounts to the use of Palestinian civilians as human shields and is therefore prohibited by international humanitarian law. It puts the right to life of the civilians at risk in an arbitrary and unlawful manner and constitutes cruel and inhuman treatment. The use of human shields also is a war crime. The Palestinian men used as human shields were questioned under threat of death or injury to extract information about Hamas, Palestinian combatants and tunnels. This constitutes a further violation of international humanitarian law.

The Mission is aware of reports that there was significant resistance from Palestinian armed groups in the Tal el-Hawa area on the night of 14 January. Information available alleges that on the night of 14 January Israeli troops had entered buildings on al-Abraj Street, used human shields to check if there was any presence of enemy combatants or explosive devices and found none. Reports do not specify the nature, scale or precise location of resistance in Tal el-Hawa. The Mission notes that in the buildings directly opposite al-Quds hospital on Jami’at ad-Duwal al-Arabiyah Street there is very little sign of damage to any of the buildings on that side of the street, and certainly nothing that compares to the damage to the buildings on al-Abraj Street.

The Mission received allegations that in two areas in north Gaza Israeli troops used Palestinian men as human shields whilst conducting house searches. The Palestinian men were allegedly forced to enter houses at gunpoint in front of or, in one case, instead of soldiers. The Mission investigated four cases. One incident took place in the Izbat Abd Rabbo neighbourhood and another in al-Salam neighbourhood, both east of Jabaliyah, close to the border with Israel. Two incidents took place in al-Israa neighbourhood, west of Beit Lahia. The Mission visited each of the locations and interviewed a number of witnesses. In each case, the Mission found the allegations to be credible.
Israel is the only country who had legitimately been documented by the UN to use children as textbook definition of human shield in recent memory
During the 10-year period, an estimated 7,000 Palestinian children aged 12 to 17, but some as young as nine, had been arrested, interrogated and detained, the U.N. report said. […]. Israeli soldiers had used Palestinian children to enter potentially dangerous buildings before them and to stand in front of military vehicles to deter stone-throwing“. Almost all those using children as human shields and informants have remained unpunished and the soldiers convicted for having forced at gunpoint a nine-year-old child to search bags suspected of containing explosives only received a suspended sentence of three months and were demoted,” it said.
Meanwhile remember when Israel blew up Associated Press office in Gaza while accusing Hamas of using the Associated Press journalists as human shields?
Late Saturday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the building was used by Hamas military intelligence. “It was not an innocent building,” he said. Israel routinely cites a Hamas presence as a reason for targeting buildings. It also accused the group of using journalists as human shields.
Pepperidge farm remembers. Israel is a completely rogue nation behaving way outside the boundaries of international law and civilized humane society. Every other state actors, even the Russians and Ukranians do not behave like this. This is some Liberian warlord genocide shit.
