If the Arabs never fired another shot in anger, they would still win in the end, by the simple premise that they will out breed the Israelis and are prepared to suffer hardships that will send the Israelis scuttling away to more comfortable places like the US.
I also find it odd that Internationally accredited evidence to show Palestinians using anyone as Human Shields is virtually impossible to find, BUT, there have been numerous live videos and Internationally acclaimed reports of the IDF doing exactly that. As usual the IDF commit the War Crimes and then accuse others of it, unfortunately for them, it doesn't work any more, their lies have been shown up too many times.
It is
very easy to find. Every ammunition depot placed in an apartment building uses the people living there as human shields. Hamas has many of those.
What about this :
Fatah accuses Hamas of using its men as 'human shields'
Or this : Gaza victims describe being used as human shields by Hamas
(The following are excerpts from the article from the official Palestinian Authority daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida)
"The Abd Rabbo family kept quiet while Hamas fighters turned their farm in the Gaza strip into a fortress. Right now they are waiting for the aid promised by the [Hamas] movement after Israel bombed the farm and turned it into ruins...
The hill on which the Abd Rabbo family lives overlooks the Israeli town Sderot, a fact that turned it into an ideal military position for the Palestinian fighters, from which they have launched hundreds of rockets into southern Israel during the last few years. Several of the Abd Rabbo family members described how the fighters dug tunnels under their houses, stored arms in the fields and launched rockets from the yard of their farm during the nights.
The Abd Rabbo family members emphasize that they are not [Hamas] activists and that they are still loyal to the Fatah movement, but that they were unable to prevent the armed squads from entering their neighborhood at night. One family member, Hadi (age 22) said: "You can't say anything to the resistance [fighters], or they will accuse you of collaborating [with Israel] and shoot you in the legs."
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Jan. 27, 2009]
In fact it was the Israeli Defence minister who actually went to court to try and have the rulings regarding the use of Human Shields removed. Not so much so he could use human shields, but to partially absolve his IDF thugs that had been doing so all the while. "The Three Stooges of Zionism" have the gall to show their faces on here and declaring that they can't see the connection between Israeli policies and those of the Nazis. Another strike for the thread, "Why We All Hate Israel".
First, this is old news and the IDF did not use those people in the way Hamas does. Hamas hides behind innocent civilians. Your link also says: "In this practice, the Israeli army would force local Palestinians to approach the homes of militants and
ask them to surrender." They used him to defuse a situation, to give the terrorist a chance not to be killed. It is used to
save lives.
here's another example of the IDF using a human shield:
IDF gives Hamas a lesson in human shields
Hamas is proud of their human shields.
Hamas - Human Shield Confession
None of these cases would have ever been investigated except for the fact that International pressure was bought to bear.
And what did Hamas do with the International pressure? They simply ignored it and hailed the criminals as heroes.
I have a question: how many times do you repeat your lies before you believe them?
You must be one clever bugger, you don't have to read anything to know its crap.
I've come across the following photographs.
The caption reads:- "Israeli soldiers make mocking t-shirts whilst this unborn baby is removed from mothers womb with bullet wound."
I found the same photo, but it was an Iranian infant:
THE IRANIAN ELECTION
or here :
Free Iran - Now and Forever
"On the other hand there is only one person. It shows a dead pregnant Iranian mother, killed during the demonstrations. Physicians tried to save the eight month embryo. But when they opened the body of the mother, they could only discover that the bullet has already penetrated the baby backwards...I am sorry for this disturbing photo. Until now we have no name of the mother. So we will go on to check the origion of the photo."
Who did you say was a liar?
That photo of the lousy T-shirt is from an Israeli soldier. But since when is a T-shirt a deadly weapon?
I have also a photo :
Hamas heroes together with their defensive shield! Oh no, wait a minute, that kid is wearing a suicide belt!
