People keep banging on about Hamas using children as human shields. Yes, they do.
But the thing about human shields is that they are supposed to be shields. Civilised, good people aren't supposed to shrug and say, "oh well, thousands of dead children is worth it". They are supposed to think twice, not bomb the schools, hospitals and apartment buildings where mothers and their babies are.
Hamas is evil, but so are the people killing babies right now. If you are killing thousands of children you are, by any definition, fucking evil. The other 'side' right not be good but you are certainly evil.
