The IDF solders weren’t using this terrorist as a human shield, and the lying, virtue signaling Biden regime spokesman knows it. They were simply driving him to the Red Crescent in the safest way possible — unarmed, and strapped to the hood. I see no problem with this.

It is only shocking because there is not enough of this happening. It is long past time to punch islamofascists hard.

Mad Max: The Road Warrior.

Maybe the IDF were out of ambulances and were transporting the corpse to the morgue.

Pretending to be outraged over nothing outrageous. That’s our State Department.

He was wounded; they had no stretcher. This was the way they could get him to safety.

I guess the IDF was supposed to let him lie there and bleed out.

"US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller says, when asked about the clip during a press briefing."

Our State Department is outrageous, a bunch of traitors, failing to speak out against evil enemies but attacking our ally. Miller needs to be sacked.

I think you are correct, that they were taking him to a hospital.
But all over Twitter the Hamas propaganda is that the used him as a human shield
