2. Propaganda,

The continual use of the meme "human shields," is supposed to drive world opinion to pressure Palestinians to do what? Leave Gaza, or as John Stewart put it so succinctly; "have you seen Gaza. What are they supposed to do? Swim for it..." If the IDF is going to shell and bomb Gaza, then there will be civilian casualties and children will die, not because they're being used as human shields, but simply because they are within the blast radius of artillery shells and air dropped bombs. The ridiculous assertion of "precision" when you are talking about weapons that have a blast radius between 100 and 1,000 yards, depending upon the ordinance is shameful. This is a well done post, but doesn't begin to uncloak the hypocrisy of Israel or the US in this situation.
