    The whole human shield angle is really stupid if you ever pay attention to how much the Zionists care about civilian casualties. We’re at what, 1.5 War-in-Ukraines of dead Palestinian civilians in 3 months? It seems like civilians don’t function as a deterrent to the IOF.

      The whole point of human shields is the expectation that the person you’re defending against has the basic human morality to not indiscriminately murder civilians to get to you. The IOF has no issues indiscriminately murdering civilians whether they’re being used as shields or not, so what possible benefit would Hamas get from using them?
