Since the beginning of time, everything that could move has
moved around the Earth, and this is how the planet became populated with all
kinds of organisms. However, except for human beings, none of these organisms has
moved from one place to another by design. They did because something related
to climate – whether it was changing or not – has caused them to drift from
place to place.
Human beings as well drifted from place to place when forced
by the climate. But they also moved from place to place by design. As far as I
was able to identify them, I see seven reasons why voluntary, large scale human
movements took place. By choice and by design, human beings became nomads,
traders, raiders, settlers, migrants, explorers and conquerors.
Except on rare occasions, the rule has been that humans
never planned to take non-combatants with them when they went to war. Thus, the
only civilians that the soldiers encountered were those of the lands they
invaded, and not of the lands from which they came. For this reason, when
civilian casualties happened, they happened among the inhabitants of the lands
that were invaded.
The exception to that rule since the beginning of time, has
been the Jews who, according to their own folklore, “conquered” other lands as
mobs made of civilian men, women and children; not made of professional
soldiers. That's what the Jews say they did when they left Egypt thousands of
years ago on their way to attack Palestine. And that's what they actually did
in modern times – as documented on several occasions – when they built their
kibbutz villages at the front-line of every war they started against a
neighbor.
Even during the last of the three wars that Israel had with
Gaza, a tunnel that was dug up by the Palestinians, encountered not a military
defensive position manned by soldiers, but a children playground only a couple
hundred feet away from the front-line. Whether a real story or one dreamed up
for the occasion, this is what the Judeo-Israeli propaganda machine has been
telling the world. In any case, that playground was not built by the
Palestinians; it was built by the Jews of Israel and possibly by the operators
of the Jewish lie and distortion machine that dreamed up the whole thing.
But this is the kind of propaganda that the Israelis and the
Jewish lobby in America have been using to get the American congress to give
them what they want. As to you, dear reader, with this backgrounder under your
belt, you should read the article that came under the title: “Get Serious About
Human Shields” and the subtitle: “Congress considers a special sanctions regime
for terror groups that use them.” It was written by Mark Dubowitz and Orde
Kittrie, and published on August 23, 2018 in the Wall Street Journal.
Note that when a land is invaded by ground forces as is the
case in the West Bank, or by air and naval crafts as is the case in Gaza, the
would-be defenders do not automatically separate themselves from the non-combatants
that do not join the defense force. Thus, the normal set-up makes it so that
the defense force (whether in uniform or not) and the non-combatants find
themselves shielding each other. For this reason, it cannot be said that the
defenders use the civilian population as shield.
For Dubowitz and Kittrie to say otherwise is to tell a lie,
trying to hammer into the heads that populate the American Congress they need
to fix a problem that doesn't exist. In fact, their intent is to bring about
the passage of legislation that will have the effect of giving the Jews of
Israel a license to murder Palestinian civilians at will, and then turn around
and punish the Palestinians who volunteer to defend their people, whether or
not they wear the uniform.
When you get past the spin which gives a false narrative as
to what's unfolding in occupied Palestine, you encounter what the Jewish lobby
in America really wants. It is this: “While U.S. laws impose sanctions for
terrorism, our recent study of Hamas leaders involved in using human shields shows
that several have not been named as terrorist by the U.S. –– Sanctions for
using human shields could lead to prosecution”.
Note that the study which the two writers are talking about
is one that was conducted by the farcical outfit which fancies itself as protector
of the democracies.
Their view is that if a Palestinian young man happens to be
at home with his family, and an Israeli helicopter gunship launches a precision
missile at the house, killing most of the family and wounding the young man but
not killing him, Dubowitz and Kittrie want the Jewish toilet bowl calling
itself American Congress, to label the young Palestinian a terrorist.
This will automatically set-up the machinery to punish him
as such. It will also label the Israeli pilot that murdered the Palestinian
family, a hero and invite him to come to America and talk to the congress.
They will want to decorate that cold blood killer with the
medal of freedom, and perhaps give him 29 standing ovations as well.
