    WOW! There isn't enough room here to point out everything wrong with this:

    1) He keeps a giant poster of his #Ballroom on AF1?
    2) Building a military bunker under it = #HumanShields = #WarCrime
    3) REVEALING that there will be a "secret" military HQ under it.
    4) BELIEVING building a military bunker under it allows him to divert part of the Pentagon budget to build his ballroom.
    5) Doesn't think money appropriated for the military is "Public" funds.

    #JFC.

    "So, it seems that the Israeli claims have no basis in reality, and are just a way to demonize Palestinians and legitimize their indiscriminate bombardment of civilians. This is hardly the first time Israel has used this accusation to delegitimize their enemies. For example, in the 2006 war against Lebanon Israel accused Hizballah of using human shields. Unsurprisingly, investigations by both Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch similarly found no evidence." decolonizepalestine.com/myth/p

  15. The "#MosquitoProtocol": the #IDF are using #Palestinians as #HumanShields.

    A #WarCrime, that is routinely committed by #Israel.

    »Several Palestinians and soldiers told the AP that Israeli troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in #Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for explosives or militants. […]

    Rights groups say Israel has used Palestinians as shields in Gaza and the West Bank for decades. The Supreme Court outlawed the practice in 2005. But the groups continued to document violations. […]

    The soldiers — who said they’re no longer serving in Gaza — said the practice sped up operations, saved ammunition, and spared combat dogs from injury or death.«

  18. Capitalism depends on the use of human shields.

    I go to the understaffed pharmacy and they screw up *every* order. I want to scream at the pharmacist and the assistant, but it's not their fault that the company won't put more people on duty.

    My medical provider cancels my appointment and makes me call *two separate numbers* and wait on hold for a long time. I want to scream at the scheduler, but it's not their fault.

  22. Man did not create all gods as equals.

    Some are worse than others.

    Some brains are haunted by endearing imps while others by genocidal eldritch abominations.

    Here is a fun little conversation between Douglas Murray and Sam Harris about the abominable latter - the genocidal Jihadi cult of Hamas:

  23. #Palestine / Whistleblower account: in Gaza, almost every IDF platoon keeps a human Shield, a sub-army of Palestinian slaves

    Israel's use of Palestinian civilians as human shields in #Gaza is a serious violation of international law. According to a whistleblower account, the practice has become systematic throughout #IDF operations, with almost every platoon forcing Palestinians to enter and clear houses ahead of soldiers—a practice called "mosquito protocol."

    Despite being exposed in media months ago, the practice reportedly continued with knowledge of senior military leadership. While the IDF has opened six investigations, the officer claims this barely scratches the surface of a widespread practice that endangers innocent civilians primarily to save time rather than increase troop safety.

  24. An Israeli soldier disclosed in a Haaretz op-ed that the military's practice of using human shields in Gaza is far more common than acknowledged and that a recent investigation was intended to create the false impression that such incidents are infrequent.

    “In #Gaza, human shields are used at least six times a day. If the Military Police want to do their job seriously, they should open at least 2,190 investigations,” the soldier stated.

    The soldiers refer to #Palestinians forced to clear homes in this way as “Shawish” or “slaves.”

    And if the #ICJ decision IS negative from #Palestinian POV (eg, if #Israel has convincing evidence of #Hamas deliberately using #humanShields and #civilianInfrastructure in urban warfare), then the original toot above about people of #Gaza bringing this upon themselves becomes #ominous instead of #incredulous

  26. Signs of #Hostages in #RantisiHospital

    #Israeli military "found signs that … #Hamas held hostages here…[and] intelligence that verifies it"

    It showed footage of rudimentary living quarters, incl a small kitchen + nearby tunnel shaft which led to ​​the house of a senior Hamas naval commander.

    Israel has accused Hamas of using hospitals & other #civilianInfrastructure to hide command posts & weapons positions, and of using civilians & hospital patients as #humanShields
