French TV Shows More Evidence of Hamas Hiding Behind Civilians

[abovesobelow]

"As the dust settles amid a 72-hour ceasefire between Israel terrorist groups in Gaza, more and more reports are emerging from Gaza backing the Israeli government's claims that Hamas is deliberately carrying out attacks from within densely-populated civilian areas.

Earlier Tuesday an Indian TV report exposed terrorists setting up and launching a rocket just meters away from a hotel where members of the international media were staying, in the middle of a crowded residential area.

Like the tiny handful of other journalists who have defied Hamas orders not to report anything negative about them, the NDTV report was only aired after the news team had left the Gaza Strip and were free from any risk of intimidation or worse at the hands of Hamas's security forces.

Now, a France 24 TV journalist - who famously ducked for cover during a live interview when a Hamas rocket was fired right next to him - has also gone on the record to report how the rocket which caught him off guard was launched in a crowded civilian area and right in front of a UN building."

1. Oh, I guess that means we should forget about the IDF using human shields for years,eh.

Glad to hear it. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_shield

[abovesobelow]

6. In enemy territory using an armed enemy is different than

Hama's firing missiles from schools in the hopes that a school will get bombed and they can get some PR

[bravenak]

8. They used CHILDREN!!!

Children to open up suspected bombs!!!!! Then they went to court to fight for the RIGHT to CONTINUE!!

You cannot use human shields at all. Ever. It is a war crime. Period.

Justifying it when Israel does it shows a high level of disingenuousness.

12. NO! They're not human shields, it's composite armor!

2. guess it's so good a second run was needed

http://www.democraticunderground.com/113475890

but for anyone who watches the video notice that Hamas fires and runs-they do not wait around for Israeli bombs or shells-doesn't IDF know this? We hear oh so often how Israel has right to defend itself but when it returns fire the ones that fired at Israel are long gone and the ones being fired on are the civilian population of Gaza, why does IDF continue to do this?

[abovesobelow]

4. Hama's often fires more than one missiles, immediate retaliation

is an attempt by Israel decommission Hama's weaponry

[azurnoir]

7. sorry that bird has a broken wing

as per your video and common sense which both say Hamas gets the heck out of dodge they do not wait around for IDF to return fire

[oberliner]

3. This is not a reliable source

Israel National News is a far-RW settler website.

[abovesobelow]

5. It is a write up of international coverage.

And by right wing I assume you mean pro-Israel, because there is a diverse assortment of balanced news there.

This would never EVER APPEAR ON A CONSERVATIVE SITE! Hell it would be censored by republicans and their lobbies

"Study: Beef Most Environmentally-Damaging Protein
Beef is by far the most costly protein when it comes to the environmental damage wreaked by feeding and raising cattle, according to a study out Monday.

Beef requires 28 times more land than the average total needed to produce either dairy, eggs, poultry or pork, said the research in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Raising beef also requires 11 times more irrigation water than other proteins, according to researchers at Bard College in New York, Yale University in Connecticut and the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel.

Beef spews far more pollution into the environment, producing five times as many greenhouse gas emissions and six times the reactive nitrogen from fertilizer compared to the other proteins, the study found.

"Beef is consistently the least resource-efficient of the five animal categories," said the study, which said on average beef was about 10 times as costly as other proteins."

11. So what's the point of this OP?

I see no reason to post an OP from the far RW settler website covering a story that was already posted here.
