The human shields thing has got to be the most disturbing term to come out of this. I remember in the Iraq war the term was always collateral damage, or civilians just weren't mentioned. Zionists are straight up saying that civilians existing is a terrorist plot.

It's unfortunately not a new approach

During the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, the army of Fascist Italy systematically bombed medical facilities in Ethiopia operated by various Red Cross societies. Italy accused Ethiopia of using hospitals to hide weapons and fighters.

It’s a pretty awful term mainly because there are absolutely instances of humans shields. Ukraine uses its citizens as human shields, Gaza is different in my mind though because the area is so small how could you do ANYTHING there to free yourself from oppression without inviting civilian casualties?
