Washington Post withdraws ‘Hamas human shields’ illustration

 

I imagine most folks who find themselves here understand and don’t need to be told that Israel is the leading nation and the IDF is the leading military in doing everything in its power to avoid as many civilian deaths and injuries as humanely possible. Making it a priority and doing a better job of that than any other nation or military in the world.

All things considered.

While we’re on this subject, conversely Hamas has been shooting the people of Gaza if they attempted to leave the northern sector of Gaza. They were blocking roads when Israel was notifying Gazans, prior to the land offensive, to leave northern Gaza and to head south.. By force and fear of death being used as human shields. Because Hamas for all its bluster and threats and chest pounding fear Israel and the IDF, Hamas is filled with cowards who must resort to using women, children, babies, the injured, aged, and any available human body as their shield.

Using civilians as human shields is a war crime. Not according to me. According to all the conventions of war, of treaties, of agreements, and understandings among nations and governments.

Yet it is Israel that is being cast as the war crimes nation and people by the West, by almost every media outlet.

Anyone paying attention to history? Facts? Sense? Objectivity? The truth? The Holy Bible and the history and integrity put forth within God’s Word?

Hamas is the poster terrorist organization that uses human beings as human shields for protection.

I find it incredible, a lot of nerve and audacity for 99% of the media to address Hamas as if those within Hamas think, act, speak, and can be rationalized with. Hamas, just like Islam, lies. Lies a lot. In the case of Hamas, nothing they say ought to be considered to have any truth at all.

In a video that Hamas doesn’t want you to see, it depicts Palestinians choosing not to act as human shields and instead moving south using the ID’s evacuation corridor to distance themselves from the activities of Hamas, known for its acts of terror.

Additionally, accounts from a Palestinian woman suggest that Israeli forces were firing, although not at civilians; the gunfire may have been directed at Hamas militants who posed a threat to the civilian population.
