    So you’re saying it’s okay to use human shields when under blockade? You might want to read up on the Geneva conventions.

    Also, do you know what country Gaza shares its Souther border with? That’s right, Egypt. How on Earth can Israel establish an open air prison when Gaza shares a border with a friendly Arab nation? How do they get all their supplies into Gaza, civilian and military? How come more than 200k Gaza civilians had work visa in Israel before the October 7th attacks? That’s right, because it’s not an open air prison.

      I’m saying a population that cannot escape and cannot leave for fear of not being able to return to their homes are in fact human shields. Hamas is certainly taking advantage like any other country would and in fact have done. What you’re ignoring is that Israel is the one creating the perverse incentive to use civilians to hide.

      Yes, the Egyptian border Israel bombed.

      200k have to work for Israel because there aren’t enough jobs in Palestine because Israel bombs businesses claiming they’re Hamas.

      It’s an open air prison bud. Fun question, can a Palestinian exit gaza without an id.
