This is by design on the part of Hamas though. It doesn’t excuse the situation, but it does make it more complicated especially with regard to intent, which has to matter when considering charges of genocide.
I don’t know that one negative makes the other right. They can both be culpable of fabricating this situation to feed larger interests. IDF is reeling in Bibi’s dirty war and Hamas is Iran’s puppet to destabilize the region. They are all shitheads, as history had shown. I don’t know why leftys have coraled around defending Hamas when it’s the Palestinian people suffering the brunt of their actions.
Not saying I don’t believe you, but do you have sources or more info?
My reason for “defending” Hamas is because of the scale of destruction (Israel is systematically destroying their entire country vs homemade mortars made by Hamas) and the intent (Israel wants to have the entire land to themselves by almost any means necessary vs Hamas wants to fight their oppressors) so I place much more blame on Israel for killing civilians than Hamas. Both are bad, sure. Everyone knows that, every innocent death is an absolute and heartbreaking tragedy. Hamas has little control of the situation tho, while Israel has the third largest military in the world. Who do you think is more responsible?
You don’t think two things can be true at the same time? Hamas absolutely are using human shield tactics, and have been for as long as they’ve been in existence. There are articles on the Internet showing how and why they do this years back.
AND at the same time, Israel is using that fact to bomb much more indiscriminately than they could be.
Wait, so you’re claiming that Israelis are Middle Eastern but are trying to exterminate themselves and preserve white people? I am so confused by your insane argument.
As for the evidence, you linked me a sketchy article from a non-reliable source. Just Google “Hamas human shields” and set the year to 2014, 2015, 2016… It’s one of their longest running traditions and has been acknowledged by the UN and virtually every country on earth.
To be honest, this is probably just a troll account so I’m not sure why I’m even wasting the time.

Israeli apologism requires some hysterical pretzel-logic - but you’ve managed to go even lower than the average shill here. I guess white supremacism is a hard subject for liberals who want to pretend it doesn’t exist, no?
you linked me a sketchy article
Ignore it if you want - it doesn’t change anything.
Just Google “Hamas human shields”
Riiiiight, Clyde - every picture of a Palestinian child is a picture of a “human shield,” right? And if you can’t see the Hamas “terrorist” said child is carrying on her back it’s just proof of how sneaky they are, correct?
I’m not sure why I’m even wasting the time.
You have to because your pro-white supremacist propaganda is falling before your very eyes. It’s a bit of a case of sunken cost fallacy if you ask me - but I have yet to see fascist sympathizers drop a debunked narrative in a timely fashion.

Oh yeah, I totally believe that Hamas is planning where Israel drops their thousands of bombs, and not an AI named ‘The Gospel’
It’s all Hamas’ fault. Everything. Israel is totally innocent of their countless of war crimes

Oh, look… the White Supremacism Fan Brigade is blaming genocide on the victims of genocide again.
Of course, the liberals who run Lemmy.world will ban me if I call you a fascist or a white supremacist… because reasons.

Oh… are the white supremacists still clinging to this lie? Let’s see who it really is that is using Palestinians as “human shields,” shall we?
White supremacist? Bro we’re talking about two Middle Eastern countries.
Moreover, you showing when Israelis have used human shields doesn’t even remotely prove or disprove anything Palestine has done. So respectfully, no.
Oh… are you going to pretend that you didn’t know Israel is a white supremacist settler-colonialist state - and always has been?
Let’s see how long that works for you, eh?
The only hard evidence we have for the use of “human shields” is their use by the fascist side.
So - extremely disrespectfully - put up or shut up.

All this time and you don’t even understand the term human shield 🤣🤣
