from wikipedia on human shields: |
Just a quickie.
How selective and cheap. I'll return on the kidnapped soldiers. Even the obviously bias wiki had this that you obviously over looked.

Israel
Human Rights Watch has reported that the Israeli Defense Forces used Palestinian civilians as human shields during the Battle of Jenin 2002. The practice was subsequently outlawed by the Israeli Supreme Court but Human Rights Watch claims the IDF continues to practice it.
In 2004, Amnesty International and Rabbis for Human Rights made claims that Israeli soldiers tied a 13-year old Palestinian boy, Muhammed Badwan, to their jeep as a shield against stone-throwing demonstrators. Israeli human rights group B'tselem has documented cases of the practice used in the Gaza Strip in the summer of 2006. In one case they claimed that during an IDF incursion into Beit Hanoun, 6 civilians were used as human shields, including 2 minors.

I would appreciate if you would debate this using your own intellect.
- Hezbollah is a guerrilla group of the people. To suggest that they would use their own son, daughters, nieces and nephews as human shields is ludicrous. Hezbollah can only survive and prosper while they retain the support of their community. Being a party, even third hand, to the children would ensure an immediate lose of this support. Sure money and arms came from abroad. Why not? But they must have the support of their community. Mao's Great March and after, along with Vietnam and the IRA proved that. If you fail to appreciate this then do not bother reading further! There is none so blind as...
- The notion of human shields being used could only work if there was a reasonable expectation of it succeeding. There is NO EVIDENCE that such a device could/would work against the IDF. Some say they would relish the opportunity to target practice even with minimal justification. That 12 year old child in his father's arms that we all saw being riddled with aimed shots put pay forever that the IDF tugs would show any mercy when faced with Arab children. Kids throwing rocks at metal tanks DIE. To say "Zionist were complicit in the Holocaust" is 10 more accurate than Hezbollah using their children as human shields. So there is NO EVIDENCE to indicate that Human Shields work against the IDF. I contend any attempt would be totally counter productive.
- I say that only Zionist would consider that Hezbollah would consider using their children as human shields. Only RACISTS would believe that other human beings would do so. You would need to be a SICK SICK degenerate to believe that other humans would do such a thing. Yes, I say again, only an absolute RACIST would believe that Arabs would use their kids as shields when more dead Arabs would result.
Remember the idea of human shields is an Israeli invention.
I have more points but I've probably lost you way back. I understood this was a debate forum. Argue and debate. Yes, back up you arguments with sources but do not turn it into 'my source is better/bigger/stronger than your source' forum. The value of this is intellectual debate with an exchange of views and not just swapping sources, and certain not wiki as the prime source. I thought after our soccer debate "
The soccer point is a LIE. AFP are correct." with "
No Arabs, No Terrorism" and your use of wiki would dissuade you from continuing to use it as a prime source!
You remember my "
this is as a dishonest source".
