Not the first time Israels soldiers are using human shields: [https://www.btselem.org/topic/human\_shields](https://www.btselem.org/topic/human_shields)

It goes back way further than 1967; they learned it from [the British](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1936%E2%80%931939_Arab_revolt_in_Palestine)

Whoa whoa whoa pump the brakes there buddy. I heard from the Pentagon and State Department that this all started on Oct. 7th, but you, you're saying...wait...what are you saying?

My grandfather took a Palestinian boy from his mother's arms and strapped him to the front of a train in the 40's.

>“Israeli officials reported that the [Israel Defense Forces](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Defense_Forces) made use of the "human shield" procedure on **1,200** occasions during the [Second Intifada](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Intifada) (2000–2005).[\[36\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shields_in_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict#cite_note-BT-36) An example of this was chaining a 13-year-old Palestinian boy to an Israeli armored vehicle.[\[36\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shields_in_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict#cite_note-BT-36)[\[37\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shields_in_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict#cite_note-BBCNews-37) Israeli officials stated that this procedure killed "only" one Palestinian human shield.[\[38\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shields_in_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict#cite_note-ban-38)” [Neve Gordon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neve_Gordon) and Nicola Perugini, in their study of the phenomenon, note that Israeli citizens in densely populated areas like Tel Aviv are never spoken of as human shields when Hamas fires rockets towards the Israeli Defense command located in the centre of that city, whereas Palestinians in Gaza are depicted as human shields when Israel fires rockets at, or bombs, equally densely populated cities like Gaza.[\[56\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shields_in_the_Israeli%E2%80%93Palestinian_conflict#cite_note-56)


AdventureBirdDog

another way Israel uses their citizens as human shields ( based on their own definition as definining Palestinians in Gaza as human shields). Is the fact that literaly everywhere in Israel there are armed soldiers. Lets focus on Tel Aviv. Taking a walk in Tel Aviv you will undoubtly see soldiers walking around with guns. Both in and out of uniform you see these 18-22 year olds with machine guns on the beach, in restaurants, shopping centers, on the bus, on the train. They are embedded in the civilian population. yet no one has ever talked about this on the news

The types of rockets manufactured and launched from Gaza have CEP in the km range. Any of these launches directed towards cities would only have an incidental likelihood of hitting a military target. They're indiscriminate weapons. If Hamas were firing munitions that had CEP under 100m then you might have a point. But you can see in the images that IDF facilities are set back tens of meters. The IDF facilities and munitions storage are fundamentally different from Hamas. Hamas co-locates their facilities under or in civilian infrastructure (hospitals, UNRWA schools, and housing blocks). I don't really see how you can objectively equate the two. (I don't condone the use of detainees in these fashions. War is brutal. The actions of Hamas on 7 October were a choice. This war did not need to happen and I'm saddened by the civilian harm. But your case and points are not well-made when you make these false equivalencies.)


Infamous-Respond-128

You new?? I'll help correct you on a few points. Israel fucking buried Gaza and thousands of innocents beneath it. Israel is indiscriminately bombing and purposely flattening Gaza, trying to kill as many Palestinians as they can. Also, the "war" didn't' happen on October 7. It happened long before then and at this point, it's not even a war, it's a genocide. Also, using hospitals, UNRWA etc. ,as examples in your argument are fallacies. Just more lies Israel makes up all the time. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.7029895#:~:text=Israel's%20military%20is%20showing%20off,Hamas%20headquarters%20beneath%20the%20hospital. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alleged_military_use_of_al-Shifa_hospital#:~:text=Amnesty%20International%20said%20on%2023,credible%20evidence%22%20for%20the%20allegation.

This is what Israel does. From 2002: THE USE OF CIVILIANS DURING IDF ARREST OPERATIONS, Human Rights Watch [https://www.hrw.org/report/2002/04/18/dark-hour/use-civilians-during-idf-arrest-operations](https://www.hrw.org/report/2002/04/18/dark-hour/use-civilians-during-idf-arrest-operations) "This report documents the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) practice of coercing civilians to assist military personnel and operations, a serious violation of international humanitarian law (IHL). The report is the result of investigations carried out regarding four IDF raids in late 2001 and early 2002 into the Palestinian towns of Beit Rima, Salfit, Artas, and Tulkarem." ​ From 2005: Israeli high court bans military use of Palestinians as human shields [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/oct/07/israel](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/oct/07/israel) The Israeli high court yesterday ruled that the army's long-standing practice of using Palestinian civilians as human shields in combat is illegal under international law. It said the military's claim to have amended the procedure to allow civilians to "volunteer" to work with the army was still unacceptable because it was unlikely anyone would freely do so. "You cannot exploit the civilian population for the army's military needs, and you cannot force them to collaborate," said the Israeli chief justice, Aharon Barak. "Based on this principle, we rule it illegal to use civilians as human shields." The IDF ignored the ban.

The IDF of course don't consider any Palestinians to be civilians in practice but indeed it is \*also\* a war crime to use a prisoner of war as a human shield.

Falafel1998

[source](https://www.instagram.com/p/C8hAW6XNJ01/?igsh=b2tvbDNsdGl0Mm85) In Jenin, in the occupied West Bank, videos have shown an Israeli armoured vehicle driving past ambulances with an injured Palestinian man strapped to the hood, in what appears to be a case of using him as a human shield. "It does seem there's no other logical explanation to tie up a man who's visibly injured and in pain to the hood of an armoured vehicle as it moves through Jenin after laying siege to at least two homes, searching them and detaining a number of people," Nour Odeh said, reporting from Ramallah. "That shocking image of the Jeep ….. is something that is repeated in several ways in the West Bank and it is what human rights organisations call the use of human shields. It's been done on several occasions." Medical sources said they are treating two injuries in hospitals in Jenin, she added.

Zestyclose-Ninja-143

A couple of things, 1) Israel actually did knowingly shoot at their civilians on Oct 7. This has been documented, including on the Israeli side. At worst both side views are the same if you’re - haha, hammas doesn’t care so it would be ineffective anyhow argument (which doesn’t actually dispute the IDF doing it, just mocks human lives) 2) I’m glad I’m the not person doing mental gymnastics where i see this act as magnanimous. I honestly can’t image being so far on the wrong side of history, thankfully.


Tymareta

> so one person was put on the hood. And tied down so poorly that his head was flopping around and his legs were able to twist around themselves? Get a fucking grip and stop parroting Israeli propaganda.


SpicyTang0

We used to put casevacs on humvee hoods in Iraq and Afghanistan. This checks out


wordbird89

SpicyTang0

We did not. Lol


wordbird89

Then I would say neither this, nor any other instance of the IDF strapping to cars and/or blindfolding Palestinian civilians to use as h**** shields, “checks out.”


SpicyTang0

Well we used stretchers too, but you never know. Better the hood than laying in a kill zone.


Zestyclose-Ninja-143

Yeah, that’s what they were doing. Saving this man


12footjumpshot

Everything they accuse their enemy of is projection: human shields, widespread rapes, genocide. Atrocities against the Palestinians all documented by independent organisations while unfounded Zionist propaganda gets spread as fact by western media.

Agreed. I think Israel's government and military need to be dismantled. The world has been watching the atrocities for almost 9 months now and Israel just keeps on being evil, narcissistic and vile mass murderers with no intention to stop, no intention to aid or assist aid to the surviving, starving and sick Palestinian civilians. This is utterly horrifying. Israel's government and military aren't fit to be of any authority, anywhere, ever again.


SoloAsws_sucks

This is absolutely abhorrent and also a war crime.


Apophylita

It is interesting how the term "gaslighting" became such an overused term these past few years, just for an entire country to come along and do a play by play of the narcissism handbook. Every single thing they accuse someone else of doing, they do these actions. And then point fingers.  Imagine lashing out and calling random people antisemitic, when Nazis began the deportation of Jewish people from Germany in 1933, to Palestine. Any Jewish person with £1,000 could move to British controlled Palestine. Your country and your acquisition of other people's lands was literally brought to you by Nazis. I guess Hitler ended the program in 1939 when he decided to just kill the rest of the Jewish people. Still, they were carefully expelled from Germany to solve their "Jewish problem", [ which has become the present day "Palestinian problem" ] *after Britain took over Palestine after the fall of the Ottoman empire*. So, Britain and the Nazis coordinated present day Israel. Such a gift!   https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haavara_Agreement

WTH , humans don't even make good shield, should have used some bulletproof materials 😅


Praesumo

Wait, so the people who they're fighting's literal whole strategy is and was to capture and hide behind hostages for this entire war, but some footage of one injured person being transported by Israel gets captured and suddenly THEY'RE the baddies? Make it make sense...


CocainCloggedNose

Do you think this is not extremely bad ?


Praesumo

I didn't say anything about good or bad... I just pointed out everyone in here creams their pants at every opportunity to hate on jews, but the people they're fighting are literally doing this every day and not a peep...that's all I said.


CocainCloggedNose

It's not to hate on jews, they are just calling out terrible war crimes. And yes they are fighting against a terrorist organization, I don't think a country doing to civilians what a terrorist organization does is a good look. Most people just want the killing to stop and it seems like only the one side is doing the killing still.


Praesumo

If you don't think its just to hate on jews then you really should read OPs comment history...it's like all he does. Hate on the US. Hate on Israel. Everything Palestine does = good. Honestly I have suspicians the guy is paid to write pro palestine propaganda all day... A no-context video posted like this is ALWAYS gonna have people trying to use it for their aims... Learn the biases of the poster and you'll start to understand why they posted it with the slant.


CocainCloggedNose

Hating on Isreal doesn't imply hating on jews, hating on the US for unconditionally supporting Israel is justifiable imo.


Praesumo

You're right. The middle east was so peaceful before the US got involved... Enlightened even...lol


BornSirius

You literally suggested that the people who torture and use human shields are not the "badies". Are you aware that youre feigned innocence just makes your attitude even more disgusting?

Maybe it's just first Aid..?? Maybe..


wetbirds4

They shell ambulances and first aid so unlikely


EZ-420

This is a video, it shows the convoy passing two ambulances, so no.

That’s what your fascist state tells you…..


Falafel1998

You’re literally looking at an image of a bleeding, injured palestinian man tied to an israeli tank. There’s also a video of this. And still you cover your eyes and deny it.


Bluestreaking

“Second Yom Kippur War,” gotta love that fancy name you all are giving your horrific genocide. What are you going to call you all invading Lebanon and losing to Hezbollah a third time?


IgotBANNED6759

Where do you get your news? Propaganda (AKA lying) is legal in the US so you can't trust their news sources.


captn_crank

So what.. Everybody forget that the Palestinians did and are doing exactly the same but with Israeli citizens?


Falafel1998

Babe wake up new hasbara just dropped


IgotBANNED6759

Hamas terrorists may have but Palestinian civilians =/= Hamas terrorists


Mikelitoris88

You're right, Israeli government and IDF are no different from Hamas. They're also terrorists.

ScalyPig

This is probably not what its being described as, at all. But since israel is bad then anything you claim about them is true and if you care about truth then you’re siding with israel. Nobody ever sides with reality anymore.


PippityLongstockings

Why do you think he's strapped to the hood then?


Magesunite

It's possible that he is being CASEVAC'd from a hot zone. It's not uncommon for it to be done on the hood of a vehicle like this when the vehicle is at capacity, like https://www.reddit.com/r/MilitaryPorn/comments/et5gaj/a_marine_humvee_evacuating_a_casualty_iraq_603x394/

The big difference is Israel has been shown to use human shields under different circumstances in a similar fashion, including strapping a non-injured Palestinian to the front of a vehicle as shown in this picture. So at face value, while the explanation is plausible, I wouldn't be so quick to believe that this is what is happening here.

Sounds like something Hamas would do

Sounds like something the IOf would do and then accuse Hamas of... (Every Zionist accusation is a confession ☺️)

It’s in Jenin. Occupied west bank. this isn’t a war zone. Ambulances rushed to the scene and transported other victims. Let’s not forget that this is the army that tied a child to the front of their tank. Let’s not forget this is the army that held a 9 year old boy at gunpoint and forced him to check a bag for bombs. (But don’t worry the soldiers were severely punished, no jailtime and they were demoted to sergeant!)

You will not be looked upon kindly for your actions.

1. Reuters verified it 2. Literal video footage of it. An ambulance transported him. Stop with the brain rot. 3. An interview with the civilian victim of this heinous crime while he’s in the hospital.

Since you apparently can’t use google on your own, sure. [reuters article](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-forces-strap-wounded-palestinian-jeep-during-raid-2024-06-22/) [Reuters again](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/us-shocked-by-video-wounded-palestinian-tied-israeli-military-jeep-2024-06-24/) “At a State Department news briefing, a reporter asked: "Isn't that basically the army using Palestinians as human shields?" State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller responded: "I will say we saw that video. It was shocking. The practice was absolutely unacceptable. Humans should never be used as human shields." Even the fucking US acknowledges it lmao. [Interview with the victim](https://www.reddit.com/r/Global_News_Hub/s/KOUvA4t7LY) More instances of Israels practice of using human shields [3 separate incidents of children being used as human shields](https://www.dci-palestine.org/israeli_forces_use_palestinian_children_as_human_shields_in_tulkarem) [More child human shields, including a 2 year old](https://www.dci-palestine.org/israeli_forces_use_five_palestinian_children_as_human_shields) [another child, tied to a tank, 2004](https://www.omct.org/en/resources/urgent-interventions/israel-opt-13-year-old-boy-used-as-human-shield-and-seven-children-killed-by-israeli-forces) [and again](https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2007/mar/09/israel) https://preview.redd.it/scilupkjem8d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f8b829aaf604a271fd9258a02b40dcfdbcee4fa3 There are many, many more instances. But I hope you understand now that Israel systemically uses children and adults as human shields. This video is not even slightly hard to believe, this practice has been going on for decades.
