While this clip may have actually taken place in#Syria, this video represents exactly what Israel is dealing with when fighting the extremist Hamas. The Hamas fires rockets at Israeli civilians behind their own children and from populated and crowded streets so if Israel will retaliate, they could cry to the world and blame Israel... #Hamas use of human shields (and ESPECIALLY CHILDREN HUMAN SHIELDS) is well documented and is a clear and deliberate violation of international law. Under the law of armed conflict, the presence of the civilian population cannot be used to render certain points immune from military operations, or to shield ones own military operations. International law also explicitly forbids directing the civilian population to shield military objectives from attack. This is what the people from #FreePalestin and#GazaUnderAttack would never show you!
