Hamas puts Gazans in danger by drawing IDF into urban warfare |
2009-01-06 |
Lions Of Islam (TM), they is, they is! Excerpt: The sources also said that senior Hamas officials have been spotted more than once wandering around the maternity ward of Gaza City's Shifa Hospital and even using the hospital to hold press conferences, on the theory that it offers a safe haven from Israeli fire. For the same reason, Hamas forces have taken refuge near buildings that serve as headquarters for various international organizations, such as the Red Cross and the United Nations. |

#9 Charles Gibson opened up his news tonight with "reports of deaths as Israeli soldiers attack shelters" Along with (undoubtedly HamAss Supplied) pictures of dead civilians... After hearing that I changed the channel - my blood pressure can't take his lying ass. BTW - has he ever, ever, reported on the situation in Sderot? Or even mentioned it? |

#8 The IDF has some really good snipers, including several women as instructors, plus they have been watching the American success with the Designated Marksman rifles and scopes in Iraq. Expect to see a lot of Hamas dead with head shots from 5.56mm shots at about 300 meters. |

#7 My guess is the plan is shoot carefully, but still shoot. For all the IDF knows the "Civilians" are actually volunteers with a illness or suicidal, who want to help out by sacrificing themselves for Allah since they can't shoot very well. |

#6 Lets hope that Israel learned from the 2006 war with the Hezbos and have a plan for handling this. One thing they need to do is get the media to actually admit - on the air - that Hamas is activly doing these things. Hiding behind women an children. Using Mosques, hospitals, and the like as cover. And therein lies the problem - its going to get hard to trun the MSM against their allies. |

#5 the "plan" for this is actually quite simple: Kill the bad guys where ya find 'em! Especially in Israel's case, since: (a) the worldwide media is going to criticize them no matter what they do (b) if the Israelis DON'T actually kill civilians then the bad guys will just stage "massacres" anyway! The Palestinians themselves will (eventually) prevent Hamas from using their children as shields if enough children die! Sad and sorry math but very true. |

#3 I would imagine that Israel has a plan for this. Using civilians for human shields and cannon fodder is part of the propaganda playbook for terrorists. |
