Israel also uses human shields and they have been at the core of its expansion policy for decades. They call them “settlers.”
This double standard pisses me off more than just about anything else about the conflict. Israel is the undisputed champion of using civilians as cover for its military and expansionist goals.
And before anyone tries to claim this bullshit that they are acting without the authority of the state, first tell me who Netanyahu put in charge of settlement policy.
Israel tells you this and you just take their word for it.
Al Shifa was supposed to be a Hamas command center. Israel promised us it was a command center, they gave us audio recordings as proof, they had a whole mockup of the suspected underground facilities.
There wasn’t shit, just a sub basement Israel dug.
Human shields should not be used. Human shields should not be bombed. I know this sounds like enlightened centrism, but it’s pretty clear, only the civilians were innocent. I cannot, simply cannot, support bombing a human shield. There is no point in defending it.
“Hamas uses human shields and has been for a long time. We know this. Everyone knows this.” only points to a clear bad guy if the human shield isn’t bombed. Never have I uttered one breath of support for Hamas. Using a human shield is deplorable.
Many different nations expressed support for the US in war efforts after 9/11. That support slowly dwindled as more and more atrocities were reported. Israel is speedrunning support loss.
Literally all of them. There’s only the Nasser hospital in Khan Younis left but it’s barely functioning as it’s completely overwhelmed, and Khan Younis has been besieged for days. There were 36 in total

The IDF also targets journalists and journalists’ families.

and they tunnel through the babies they eat, sure.
If you don’t think Palestinians should be used as human shields, I’ve got some bad news for you about the IDF.

Right. I’m with the civilians on both sides.
Excuse my ignorance but has Israel actually bombed a hospital?

Thanks. I assumed hospitals would get damaged in the fighting but I did not know some of them were literally flattened
There was a 12 year old girl that had her leg blown off at home by an IDF airstrike and her family killed.
When she was lying amputated in the hospital bed, an israeli tank shell blew her head off.
For real? They bomb a different one like every other fucking day.
