[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would love to see the humanization of Palestine.  But humans do not use there children as tactical weapons in a fight.

Perhaps they took a page out of IDF's playbook - IDF uses children and civilians to check houses of suspected terrorists before entering, and has asked children to search bags it suspects of containing explosives. It has also shot and killed at Palestinian civilians with complete impunity or only the puniest of charges - like a reprimand for the cold-blooded murder of children in security zones.   This is from the case of Iman al-Hams:

From the watchtower [three-way conversation between watchtower soldier, the operations room in another location, and finally, Captain R, the officer on the ground near watchtower "It's a little girl. She's running defensively eastward." "Are we talking about a girl under the age of 10?" "A girl about 10, she's behind the embankment, scared to death." "I think that one of the positions took her out." "I and another soldier ... are going in a little nearer, forward, to confirm the kill ... Receive a situation report. We fired and killed her ... I also confirmed the kill. Over."

From the operations room "Are we talking about a girl under the age of 10?"

Watchtower "A girl about 10, she's behind the embankment, scared to death."

A few minutes later, Iman is shot from one of the army posts

Watchtower "I think that one of the positions took her out."

Captain R "I and another soldier ... are going in a little nearer, forward, to confirm the kill ... Receive a situation report. We fired and killed her ... I also confirmed the kill. Over."

Capt R then "clarifies" why he killed Iman

"This is commander. Anything that's mobile, that moves in the zone, even if it's a three-year-old, needs to be killed. Over."
