Comment on Operation Narnia: Iran’s nuclear scientists reportedly killed simultaneously using special weapon

The innocents in question are human shields being used by Hamas to protect their objectives. The suffering of those humans and children should have resulted in a massive operation to dismantle Hamas’ financial teeth. Instead hamas leaders still take all humanitarian aid and repurpose them against Israel. Qatar and Israel are the real perpetrators of this violence.

No, the innocents in this case would be anyone who lived with or near the target, so their family and neighbors. It’s not like they sent in snipers to take out the one target, they sent bombs.

Yeah but Israel is also known to use Palestinian civilians as human shields, such as when crossing a suspected minefield.

  Got a curtain for that claim?
  
  There are also claims of IDF sending civilians ahead of a raid in a potentially booby trapped buildings.
  
  But why waste our time on hearsay? It is hard enough examining am the documented evidence from each side.

    Human rights organizations and many high-profile news outlets have reported on this. See citations in the relevant Wikipedia article section. Reuters even has an article with video evidence.
    
    That said, Hamas does this too and their surrender is probably the best we could hope for to further peace talks.

    Wiki citation:
    
    86. The United Nations verified the recruitment and use of 4 Palestinian children (3 boys, 1 girl) by Israeli forces as human shields (3) and by the Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades (1) as combatants in the occupied West Bank (3) and the Gaza Strip (1).
    
    So that’s 4 examples of the IDF and 8 of the Palestinian militants. The numbers are not a scorecard though. These are just children and just the ones they had evidence of. Must happen a lot more, especially if you count adult shields.
    
    I expect better from IDF since they represent a democratic government and so we should be hearing of the rogue soldiers being disciplined (jailed even). We rarely hear that.

One of the target’s two children died in the pager attacks. civilian casualties & injuries are not always human shields. In the case of pager attacks for instance none actually was since the attack was unexpected.
