Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.
It’s shameful that Hamas terrorists intentionally use children as shields.
Shields and swords, there’s child soldiers too. And I’d be damned if they don’t count a dead 16 year old with an AK as a poor innocent baby that got murdered by Israel…
Shields implies that they would use them to block something. Their death means that they obviously weren’t effective in that. You can only use something as a shield if it stops the enemy from doing that thing. The fact that they were still murdered falls at the feet of Israel. You know, as the people that dropped the weapons on their heads.
No. Terrorist Hamas knew there would be a retaliation for their barbaric murderous attack and should have had all civilians in an area separate from themselves in preparation.
Yes. So when people take hostages or use human shields that’s because good guys don’t kill the hostages or shoot through them. The innocent lives matter. That’s how that works. If you act the same if they’re there or not it makes you just as bad. Maybe worse. Glad I could help you figure that out.
No. Hamas are terrorist barbarians who actively get civilians killed in order to protect themselves.
Yes. If you get in a car chase after a murder suspect and run over a civilian with your car, you murdered them. Now that murder could be said to be a mistake. If you consciously run over a civilian because they are in the path between you and the murderer that is very much murder. Now if you go around doing that consistently it’s possible you might be the terrorist, as by definition:
Actually, the law in that case would charge the fleeing subject with a murder or aggrivated manslaughter charge (depending on the state).
If you run from police illegally, you’re responsible for the damages cause in the chase (in most states).
What, like holding them up to block missile strikes that are leveling neighborhoods?
