Only if you believe that Israel is responsible.

This , afterall is the same AI that has called GITMO the "Gulag of our Times". IF AI truly believes their press they have VASTLY overstated their case. The Gulags were the death sentence of MILLIONS of Russians, Ukrainians, Germans, Poles, Japanese, etc. Entire Families to include children dissappeared into them. show me where its comparable.

This is also the AI which now has no problem with Killing Children as long as an Abortionist does it. A Hypocritical position.


This is the same AI that criticizes open governments yet strangely is silent about Hamas depredations. aI's main concern with Hamas is its use of the Death Penalty.

In fact AI has no presence in the Palestinian Authority Areas according to their own site

Poor start. Whether Israel is responsible or not is under discussion. It should be open and fair. The charges are serious ones.

Dissembling starts.


Stick to the point. What AI said about Gitmo doesn't make it any better a place, just because there are no women imprisoned there doesn't make them wrong. AI wasn't compsring Gitmo and Gaza.

Abortion has nothing to do with Gaza.

As far as Hamas goes, despite Amnesty's charges of wrong-doing on their part, AI was still permitted entry and access for their investigation. I understand Israel would not cooperate at all.

Once again the PA isn't Gaza.

You're lip-synching a Regev tune.

AI has not found evidence that Hamas was employing HS tactics, but found evidence of OUR usage? Roll Eyes

What is the point for IDF to use Human shields? Hamas does not care about them, so he will just shoot them. We have better shields to use, they are APCs and Tanks.

AI is run by idiots and/or Hamas lovers. After such ridiculous claim it is difficult to say anything else.

Pfui.

Actually, Amnesty has accused BOTH the Israeli military AND Hamas of human rights abuses.

IMHO, sounds like they are trying to be fair.

Hard to see that one. They have not been making ANY effort in establishing what really happened there. You can't hide the fact that Hamas lobbed rockets, so they are forced to admit it.

On the other hand it takes an investigation in order to find out anything more important, like usage of Human shields. Here AI refuses to do ANY investigation WHATSOEVER, and is quick to make ridiculous claims.

WHY should we use HS??? Totally useless tactics against Hamas.

How "Fair". Popcorn

Amnesty International serves a useful purpose in that it reports crimes against humanity wherever they may occur and whoever may be the perpertrators. It may anger many Americans when it is the US pointed out by AI as being perpetrators of uncivilized behavior; nevertheless the American people have the right and the responsibility to know the truth, and the US government more often than not does not report the truth to its people.

Seldom does the Jewish controlled media in the US report atrocities committed against Palestinians by those who have stolen their land and imprisoned their people.

Israel has made Gaza a virtual ghetto for beleaguered Palestinians, so the term "gulag" is appropriate when addressing Israeli depredations. Based on Israel's history of barbarism and duplicity, I do not doubt that Israeli forces would use children as human shields, and that it was Israel's official policy to commit acts of wanton murder against women and children during the invasion of Gaza.

To say that Isreal does not need human shields because their forces are well equipped with APCs and tanks, is a condemnation of the United States, which provides Israel the most sophisticated armament in its arsenal, gratis, to carry out acts of barbarism.

Israel's final solution goal is to carry out cold-blooded genocide against the Palestinian people, all the easier to confiscate their land. The Nation of Isreal is a pariah among the civilized nations of the world. AI provides a valuable service in investigating and reporting.

HS do not work against Hamas. Pointless accusation, and pointless proof.

Misanthrope-I seriously doubt that you know what Gulag means. But since the accusation comes from someone that believes the protocols of learned elders of Zion, i am not so surprised.

So they put this kid in front of their vehicles to stop the others from throwing rocks? This is a very big exgageration of "Human Shield"



I thought they were being shot at.
GG Isreal, I think it's a great idea.

The kid tied to a truck is from 2004! Although AI found ample evidence, there weren’t (to my knowledge) any pictures of Israelis using Palestinians as human shields (while shot at) in their last attack in Jan 2009.......that's what the original article is about!
