The only times the Palestinian man wasn’t bound or blindfolded, he said, was when he was used by Israeli soldiers as their human shield.

Dressed in army fatigues with a camera fixed to his forehead, Ayman Abu Hamadan was forced into houses in the Gaza Strip to make sure they were clear of bombs and gunmen, he said. When one unit finished with him, he was passed to the next.

you seem to be learning about the IDF for the first time, you'd be surprised at what they do

I don't see how this is relevant to what I said.

you seem to be trying to be pedantic regarding war crimes but are still wrong to boot.

when they tie Palestinians to the front of their vehicles, I think we can say they're using literal human shields.

try putting your energy somewhere where you're not defending genocidal fascist military forces?

That would absolutely count as using them as human shields. However, the example used in the article, in my opinion, doesn’t. What they’re doing is still just as immoral and still a war crime, but I don’t think it qualifies as an example of using someone as a human shield.

This has nothing to do with defending the IDF - don’t be ridiculous.

You are defending literal war crimes and you should be ashamed of yourself.
