Speaking of DUMB! Who started the 10/7/23 killing of Israelis? Hamas 3 billionaire leaders! And YOU excuse them for the deaths of people who evidently believe like you that the 3 billionaire leaders are great! As far as I'm concerned dummies like you don't seem to be aware that those 45,000 Palestinian deaths ARE NOT the fault of Israel! The majority of the deaths are in places where your friends the Hamas terrorists hang out are under schools, hospitals places where children are!So Israel mass murdering tens of thousands of innocent women and children, maiming tens of thousands more, and displacing over 2 million people is justified by you because of 10/7.
You are a dumb MFer.
Hamas’ use of human shields in Gaza
Hamas, an Islamist militant group and the de facto governing authority of the Gaza Strip, has been using human shields in conflicts with Israel since 2007. According to the Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the war crime of using human shields encompasses “utilizing the presence of a civilian or other protected person to render certain points, areas, or military forces immune from military operations.” Hamas has launched rockets, positioned military-related infrastructure-hubs and routes, and engaged the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) from, or in proximity to, residential and commercial areas.
The strategic logic of human shields has two components.
It is based on an awareness of Israel’s desire to minimise collateral damage, and
of Western public opinion’s sensitivity towards civilian casualties.
If the IDF uses lethal force and causes an increase in civilian casualties, Hamas can utilise that as a lawfare tool: it can accuse Israel of committing war crimes, which could result in the imposition of a wide array of sanctions.
Alternatively, if the IDF limits its use of military force in Gaza to avoid collateral damage, Hamas will be less susceptible to Israeli attacks, and thereby able to protect its assets while continuing to fight.
Moreover, despite the Israeli public’s high level of sup- port for the Israeli political and military leadership during operations, civilian casualties are one of the friction points between Israeli left-wing and right-wing supporters, with the former questioning the outcomes of the operation.
So dummies like you don't seem to comprehend what these heartless cruel terrorists have done and what is worse,
YOU condone it! Truly people like you are the major causes of these 45,000 deaths all because of your ignorance!
