true face of Hamas civilians are simply used as cannon fodder or human shields. Reports out of Gaza say residents who attempted to flee their homes in the northern area of the Strip were forced to go back at gunpoint, by Hamas men.
Other civilian complaints state that Hamas gunmen pull children along with them "by the ears" from place to place, fearing that if they don't have a child with them they will be fair game to the IDF. Others hide in civilian homes and stairwells, UNRWA ambulances, and mosques.

So Israel is letting in Israeli journalists into Gaza, but no foreign journalists?

Do you have to work directly for Mossad to be allowed into the conflict zone or is she just making up the story? Something doesn't add up.

Either way, this report stinks of disinformation.

As for the premise behind the story; I will not rule out that members of Hamas may be withholding aid from the civilian population, but until we can get some unbiased journalists inside Gaza to interview, say, a UN worker, I will continue to remain skeptical of stories such as this.

The suspicion is that the group's operatives have seized control of any supplies passing through the crossings – including those sent by Israel and international organizations.





reports say Hamas takes a cut out of all aid that arrives, including flour and medicine. Supplies intended to be distributed without gain among the population is seized by the group and sold to the residents, at a profit to the Hamas government.





In other cases, civilians are simply used as cannon fodder or human shields. reports out of Gaza say residents who attempted to flee their homes in the northern area of the Strip were forced to go back at gunpoint, by Hamas men.





The organization is presumably interested in increasing civilian casualties in order to give rise to international pressure against Israel. Arab media reported that in an IDF strike on a UN school 30 civilians were killed, but there is no legitimate way to prove gunmen were among those killed as Hamas tends to bury these bodies quickly, thus eliminating evidence in Israel's favor.





Other civilian complaints state that Hamas gunmen pull children along with them "by the ears" from place to place, fearing that if they don't have a child with them they will be fair game to the IDF. Others hide in civilian homes and stairwells, UNRWA ambulances, and mosques.





In other reported cases Hamas gunmen hold civilians hostage in alleyways in order to provide themselves with a living barricade to ward off IDF forces. Reports somewhat more difficult to verify say the group's men shot Fatah operatives in the feet to make sure the latter would not attempt a coup.



Hmmm, that article is a little bit vague isn't it? Where are these reports from? Who reported these reports?

Personally, this article is comical. We're supposed to believe this article without the article even giving us the reporters names or sources?

More sources for this information would be good.
At any rate - this story confirms what we already know.
Human shields. Civilian infrastructure used for military purposes.

To the OP - You might want to find some other sources to back up the story.

This happens everywhere and at all times.

Stage 1: Some countries "give aid".
Stage 2: The "aid" is being sold to the people instead freely distributed.
Stage 3: Money is used to buy weapons from the country that "gave" aid.

Good business, nothing else.

i think its about time people realised hamas have no real intention of helping the people of palastine,they seem to exist to fuel the conflict and bring about more depopulation.

its like them "psyops" folks who infiltrate left wing protests pretending to be left wing themselves,and then start trouble and violence,bringing down the protest from the inside.
division for conflict is their number one AIm,they will do it from the inside and out,like obama,a fake saviour,mind control alpha waves detected at his rallies,like they were with the bushes and hitlers rallies.

i predict obama will send a load more troops to afganistan,make a heoric push to defeat the talibian and goad them and the pakistani extremists(or rather wazaristan) into attacking india big time,resulting in an all out war between india and pakistan.
