Yes, Hamas Uses the Palestinian People as Human Shields
How else could Hamas manage to still exist?
Among defenders of Hamas there is much debate about the often-repeated claim that Hamas uses the Palestinian people as human shields.
But the question is not, as CNN would have us believe, “complicated.”
Yes, of course Hamas is using the Palestinian people as human shields.
If Hamas wasn’t using the Palestinian people as human shields, that is, intentionally locating military operations beneath civilian hospitals, schools, and public buildings, Israel’s military forces would destroy Hamas
It’s that simple: If Hamas were to concentrate its forces in purely military outposts, clearly separated from surrounding civilian areas, and presenting, even the most ardent Hamas-defender must admit, an excellent target, Israel would destroy those military installations ten minutes after the Israeli Defense Ministry received satellite intel. Probably sooner.
Hamas has been declared by the U.S. government, international governing organizations, and national security bodies around the world as a terrorist organization. In addition, the extremists who perpetrate terror for Hamas under the thin guise of Palestinian liberation don’t just confine themselves to attacking Jews.
