    Don’t forget they also dress innocent Palestinian civilians in their IDF military fatigues and send them in as cannon fodder. If they survive a few weeks of being sent in to set off booby traps for the IDF then they get released.

    They wouldn’t do that if these people were guilty of something, so they are knowingly using innocent people to die in tunnels and houses.

      As they have since the beginning of the occupation and continue to this day. All while justifying the wholesale destruction of women, children, schools, mosques, and Refugee camps with the lie of human shields

      Since the beginning of the occupation in 1967, Israeli security forces have repeatedly used Palestinians in the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip as human shields, ordering them to perform military tasks that risked their lives. As part of this policy, soldiers have ordered Palestinian civilians to remove suspicious objects from roads, to tell people to come out of their homes so the military can arrest them, to stand in front of soldiers while the latter shoot from behind them, and more. The Palestinian civilians were chosen at random for these tasks, and could not refuse the demand placed on them by armed soldiers.
