I’m not saying they were not using the baby as a shield. But they were not under fire in that video, so the connection, not being clear-cut in the video, can be spun as the opposite, and will be.
Sir, that was a video sent out to the world to show exactly what would happen if Israel attacked them. The whole point was to show the Israelis where their little kids were and what would happen if they attacked.
Even trying to show how it could be spun the other weay is giving them credence and cover. There is no cover here, Hamas was threatening the parents and the government.
And if I had been a parent of one of those children, I would have been back in uniform the next day, in line to kill some Hamas. Because the baby will go to Jesus if killed, but I would see the Hamas rats in hell.
