How Israel’s Army Uses Palestinians as Human Shields in Gaza


The Israeli military said in a statement that its “directives and guidelines strictly prohibit the use of detained Gaza civilians for military operations.” It added that the accounts of the Palestinian detainees and soldiers interviewed by The Times would be “examined by the relevant authorities.”

The Israeli military employed a similar practice, known as the “neighbor procedure,” in Gaza and the West Bank in the early 2000s. Soldiers would force Palestinian civilians to approach the homes of militants to persuade them to surrender. That procedure was banned in 2005 by Israel’s Supreme Court, in an expansive ruling that also outlawed the use of human shields in other contexts. The court’s president, Aharon Barak, ruled that a resident of an occupied territory “should not be brought, even with his consent, into an area where a military operation is taking place.”


The head of US serial killers group, Mercy Killings, Mr Edward Bundy, said in a statement that " directives and guidelines strictly prohibit the use of murder as a tool for personnel self gratification"

The practice you are referring to? some history

The challenge was brought to the Israeli Supreme Court by human rights groups, Israeli and Arab.

The Israeli army lost the case because it is obviously against the law to force innocent civilians to perform dangerous military tasks . Occupying powers have many many more responsibilities than they do rights, and this is illegal under international law

On losing the case the Israeli army immediately launched an appeal and the practice has continued with a nod and a wink and a blind eye here and there to this very day and will go on into the future because they are out of control and see themselves as above the law and Palestinians as unpeople.

Why do you think they kill all the people with cameras? :rolleyes:
 
Aside from the Israeli propaganda which you so eagerly devour, there has been no evidence presented that Hamas uses human shields. Of course you are free to supply said evidence if you have it. The brave and fearless warriors of the IDF cower behind Palestinian children. Defend this:



When being a Palestinian kid in the vicinity of the Israeli army, your use as a human shield isn't the worst that can happen to you, they regularly just shoot them in the head and possibly kill any first responders that come to help.
 
The IDF not only uses Palestinians as 'human shields' for soldiers and vehicles, they also force them to enter areas they suspect might be booby-trapped, open suspicious containers, etc.

There was one story where they had a bound detainee they ordered to go in a hospital and order everyone to leave it, saying they had his mother and would kill her if he didn't cooperate. After he did and returned, they killed him in front of his mother.


I saw that too, he was the guy in the white clothes, right?

That was ****ing vile.
 
A man who says he is a "kid" may well be an enemy. And if he says he was a "human shield" he may well be lying. The IDF is wise to xpect the worst and investigate; they did and the man was released.
It doesn't matter if they are kids, men or women, the use of human shields is vile and illegal under the law

Your pathetic apologetics for this instead of just denouncing it is truly sickening
 

The first link is truly pathetic which stopped me even bothering to read the second one.

You evidently don't understand what we are talking about here.

US President Joe Biden stated that Hamas was using innocent Palestinians as human shields and emphasized the need to protect them.

Sure, just keep laughing at the innocent people being used and killed by Hamas. Funny stuff... 🙄
 
That doesn't reflect well on you then, but it's mild when set against your defending of the use of human shields by the Israeli army.

It seems you know very little about Israel and the neighboring murderous Islamic tribes. I do know and I support Israel 100%.

Biden as a source? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

He claimed to have seen pictures of the 40 beheaded babies ffs

He would tell you orange isn't orange if it favoured Israel.
 
I have no idea what that is supposed to mean.
It means journalists, independent observers and witnesses to IDF atrocities in Gaza and elsewhere. Capisce? Here's a list of those killed by the IDF for you to gloat over...

Your posts are just getting sillier...
 
The difference is that HAMAS uses human shields as a deliberate part of their stated policy. Israel does not. A few instances of this kind of morally offensive behavior in time of war is understandable, but it is not condoned by Israel while it is not only condoned by HAMAS, it's mandated.

So Israel has words on paper opposing it but in practical application they do nothing to actually stop it, meaning it is in fact an Israeli policy.

Tell us all about how The Magical Sky WiZard deeded 'Greater Israel' in perpetuity to some crazed, racist, murderous, etc., Central European Ashkenazi cultists.... LOL!!

'Hey hey Biden and K, [and the rest of the stinking R's/D's] how many kids have you killed today?'
