US Intel Discovers 'Human Shields' Can Be Forced – By Israel
According to Reuters, US intelligence concluded Israeli forces used Palestinians to clear explosive-laden tunnels in Gaza. This, apparently, led Washington to 'question' the use of human shields. It's truly astonishing what can be discovered when the 'wrong' side does it. For years, the Israeli government and its well-funded lobbying arm, AIPAC, have championed the narrative that Hamas's use of
'human shields' is the sole reason for civilian casualties. Now that the IDF itself is implicated, the narrative conveniently shifts to a 'questioning' of tactics, not an outright condemnation One might wonder if Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), who received over $200,000 from pro-Israel groups in his career according to OpenSecrets.org, will still vote for unrestricted aid. This 'discovery' of alleged
Israeli human shield tactics is quite convenient, happening long after the billions in US military aid for 2024 were already approved. How many more 'questions' will arise before Washington truly questions the funding?
