Die Nachrichtenagentur AP veröffentlicht Untersuchungen, wonach die Israelische Armee IDF palästinensische Zivilisten als menschliche Schutzschilde bei militärischen Operationen benutzt.

Ein 80jähriger Mann wurde so zunächst gezwungen, bei Durchsuchungen voran zu gehen und anschließend von israelischen Soldaten erschossen.

"So, it seems that the Israeli claims have no basis in reality, and are just a way to demonize Palestinians and legitimize their indiscriminate bombardment of civilians. This is hardly the first time Israel has used this accusation to delegitimize their enemies. For example, in the 2006 war against Lebanon Israel accused Hizballah of using human shields. Unsurprisingly, investigations by both Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch similarly found no evidence." decolonizepalestine.com/myth/p

While there is no evidence that Palestinians practice this, there are mountains of evidence of the IDF doing so.

"Israeli soldiers have "systematically" used Palestinians as human shields during the 19-month assault on the Gaza Strip"
""Orders often came from the top, and at times nearly every platoon used a Palestinian to clear locations," APreported, citing the account of an unnamed Israeli officer"
As always with Israel, every accusation is a confession.

The "#MosquitoProtocol": the #IDF are using #Palestinians as #HumanShields.

A #WarCrime, that is routinely committed by #Israel.

»Several Palestinians and soldiers told the AP that Israeli troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in #Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for explosives or militants. […]

Rights groups say Israel has used Palestinians as shields in Gaza and the West Bank for decades. The Supreme Court outlawed the practice in 2005. But the groups continued to document violations. […]

The soldiers — who said they’re no longer serving in Gaza — said the practice sped up operations, saved ammunition, and spared combat dogs from injury or death.«

Palestine Chronicle · AP Investigation: Israeli Units Ordered to Use Civilians as Human Shields in GazaThe Associated Press has verified a widespread Israeli military practice of using Palestinian human shields.

Capitalism depends on the use of human shields.

I go to the understaffed pharmacy and they screw up *every* order. I want to scream at the pharmacist and the assistant, but it's not their fault that the company won't put more people on duty.

My medical provider cancels my appointment and makes me call *two separate numbers* and wait on hold for a long time. I want to scream at the scheduler, but it's not their fault.

#Palestine / Whistleblower account: in Gaza, almost every IDF platoon keeps a human Shield, a sub-army of Palestinian slaves

Israel's use of Palestinian civilians as human shields in #Gaza is a serious violation of international law. According to a whistleblower account, the practice has become systematic throughout #IDF operations, with almost every platoon forcing Palestinians to enter and clear houses ahead of soldiers—a practice called "mosquito protocol."

Despite being exposed in media months ago, the practice reportedly continued with knowledge of senior military leadership. While the IDF has opened six investigations, the officer claims this barely scratches the surface of a widespread practice that endangers innocent civilians primarily to save time rather than increase troop safety.
