Nick Carter icp Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 1 minute ago, WDSmart said: What I did do, explaining that for the THIRD TIME, was to show you that your argument blaming Hamas for the deaths of their "human shields" was faulty, and I used the festival as an example of that faulty reasoning. But that just doesn't make any sense at all . There is no logic behind that reasoning . Hamas deliberately used Human shields for protection The festival attendees were not used as Human shields and they had nothing to do with the war and were not put there by the IDF or the Israeli Government . There are no similarities between the festival attendees and the Hamas human shields 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDSmart Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Human Shields To all pro-Israeli posters: Let me try to quash this argument once and for all. I'll give you a similar situation and then ask you a question. I'd like you all to answer it. Situation: The police are chasing a man who has just committed multiple homicides. He breaks into a house, gathers up a family (man, woman, and two kids), and barricades himself in a room with them. The police enter the house and break down the door to the room. The murderer is armed and is in a corner of the room holding the family, who are now bound, in front of him. Question: Is it okay for the police to shoot the family, the "human shields," to be able to kill the murderer? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 11 minutes ago, WDSmart said: I agree, and I hope you will also agree it was the IDF that KILLED the "human shields," not Hamas. Human shields are to stop people with any conscience from attacking. IDF attack... Not caring and actually rejoicing as seen in videos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's a war situation and one side uses Human shields , then the people using Human shields are responsible for any deaths . Hamas could just surround themselves with Human shields and march from one end of Israel to the other whilst bombing Israel , whilst being protected by human shields 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobblybob Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 11 minutes ago, WDSmart said: This is more faulty reasoning. If that were true, they could not be called "human shields." They would just be the actual "terrorists." Stop trying to twist posts to suit your agenda, you know as well as the next man that Hamas are using their own people as human shields and seem quite happy for them to achieve martyrdom. Just the same when a terrorist misfired rocket hit a hospital at the beginning of this war, (well it hit the car park) and Hamas claimed it killed 500 civilians mostly women and children, the pro Palestian mob couldn't get enough it, they thought all their birthdays had come at once and when the truth was finally revealed it went down like a lead balloon with the baying crowd. You see when you are desperate to slur the Israelis all sense and reasoning goes out of the window. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamas see the human shields as a necessary sacrifice, so to them yes its ok for them to be killed. The IDF do everything they can to avoid killing them: The reality is that when it comes to avoiding civilian harm, there is no modern comparison to Israel's war against Hamas. Israel is not fighting a battle like Fallujah, Mosul, or Raqqa; it is fighting a war involving synchronous major urban battles. No military in modern history has faced over 30,000 urban defenders in more than seven cities using human shields and hiding in hundreds of miles of underground networks purposely built under civilian sites, while holding hundreds of hostages. Despite the unique challenges Israel faces in its war against Hamas, it has implemented more measures to prevent civilian casualties than any other military in history. https://www.newsweek.com/israel-implemented-more-measures-prevent-civilian-casualties-any-other-nation-history-opinion-1865613 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue that any death of innocent civilians is tragic, but under the circumstances Hamas has no one but themselves to blame. At the end of the day the Israelis are there to do a job and that is to rid the dangers from these phycopathic killers and secure the release of the hostages, they must never repeat the massacres that happened on 7/10, the prelude to this war. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there will be regular hostage taking , and every hostage taking would mean Israel giving up more and more concessions . Israel would have to agree to all Hamas demands , Hamas would control the Israeli Government and give orders telling them what do to . Israel would have to give Hamas the keys to Israel and Israelis all pack their bags and emigrate and go and live somewhere else 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have asked him if it's OK to destroy an entire building full of women and children to kill one Hamas in the building. I presume that is why they drop very large bombs on a building full of innocent children, destroying the entire building and burying many of the children under the rubble where they can't be rescued because israelis won't allow enough fuel in to move the diggers. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could consider it from the point of view that by killing so many it allows the ones left alive to eat a bit more, considering the israelis are only allowing a bare minimum amount of food in and Gazans are starving.
