Hamas explains using civilians as human shields: "We desire death as you desire life." [Feb. 29, 2008]
The UN announcement that 51 civilians have died in the conflict in Gaza must be understood in the context of Hamas's declared ideology to use civilians as human shields for Hamas fighters.
Indeed, Hamas continues to emphasize and promote the religious ideology that death for Allah is an ideal to be actively pursued. The goal is to convince Palestinians, including women and children, not to fear death but even to face it at the front to protect Hamas fighters.
Hamas's placement of its military installations and fighters among civilians reflects this ideology, and has led to these 51 deaths.
A Hamas representative in the PA legislative council this year expressed pride in the fact that women and children are used as human shields in fighting Israel. He described it as part of a "death industry" at which Palestinians excel, and explained that the Palestinians "desire death" with the same intensity that Israelis "desire life."
The following is the full text of the comments by Hamas representative Fathi Hamad:
"For the Palestinian people death became an industry, at which women excel and so do all people on this land: the elderly excel, the Jihad fighters excel, and the children excel. Accordingly [Palestinians] created a human shield of women, children, the elderly and the Jihad fighters against the Zionist bombing machine, as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: We desire death as you desire life."

If the Islamic Jihad leaders claim they “desire death” — why is it the “leaders” are always hiding or masking their identity as women?
Apparently, the “leaders” desire death ONLY for the “stupid little sheetheads" they've drugged to commit suicide
Quite happy to oblige you, savage.
L
War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want.
Silly, that's where they'll launch rockets at Israelis from.
it just goes to show how “Arabs” treat there children.
Then why are they complainig?
“Then why put your women and children in front of you in battle”
It is quite simple, they know that we value the lives of their women and children (even if they don’t) and use it as a tactic against us. The solution is simple (we just need to do it) there is no quarter for anyone that engages in this behavior, it elicits a death penalty. We also gather evidence against those that escape and bring justice to them (be it rope, rifle or explosives) at the earliest opportunity.
Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meier said, “I can forgive them for killing my children. I cannot forgive them for forcing my children to kill theirs.”
This reminds me of a Three Stooges episode where Moe boldly stated they he would fight until the last drop of... Curly's blood!
They put the civilians in the way then complain that civilians are killed.
Shows what value an innocent life has to such people. Even their own.
