What evidence is there that Hamas is really using people as human shields?
... And weigh that against the mountains of evidence of israel's disregard for Palestinian life and wellbeing:
Can they really claim "human shields" when israel is dropping bombs on densely populated areas? What about when they bomb refugee camps, clinics, hospitals, evacuation routes, or designated safe zones? Or when they drop bombs on members of Hamas in their family homes?
What about the infants israel left dead and rotting in al-Shifa Hospital? And how israel couldn't produce any evidence that Hamas was actually using that hospital as a base?
What about the israeli hostages crying for help and waving white flags that the IOF murdered?
What about the mass starvation? The restriction of food, water, electricity, medicine, and other humanitarian aid? The repeated targetting of aid workers? Or the aid trucks blocked at the border, or worse, picked apart by israeli settlers? Does that not contradict the narrative that israel is only after Hamas?
Oh, but the warning pamphlets! Like when israel tells the sick, starved, and traumatized Palestinians that they have 24 hours to walk 20km from one (former) safe zone to the next one, and then they start bombing them in 12 hours?
Any moral and honest person can see that israel has gone above and beyond to hurt as many Palestinians as possible - so why the fuck are these vague claims about "human shields" even taken seriously?
But what they're right? Maybe Hamas has taken (tens of) thousands of fellow Palestinians as human shields, so why can't israel produce any evidence of that? Why is israel restricting journalists or investigators from entering Gaza or the West Bank? Why are they repeatedly killing journalists? Surely, if what they say is true, it would benefit them to show what is happening, but instead they take every step to hide what is happening from everyone.
We all know how much libs like copy/pasted lists of evidence. I'm sure when that tactic is used against them, they will admit defeat![emoji anakin-padme-2 anakin-padme-2](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/d005c0c7-e7e6-469f-993e-3012b90a48b9.png)
Great list though
Ok, let's cut off internet in Gaza.
Ok, now let's cut off telephone towers that they'll be able to access.
Ok, now we'll give them pamphlets for safe zones, but they can only be accessed through a QR code.
