Does Hezballah hide behind women's skirts or is that just Israeli propaganda?

Question

The Israeli's are big on labels that they apply to their enemies. They say Hezballah hide behind human shields. Many of the posts on this site reiterate the same statements. How many of the posters on this site know this as fact or are just using the statements released by the Israeli press to spread the propaganda that they issue to make Hezballah look like a bunch of cowards?

Answer 1

Do you know it NOT to be a fact?

Why don't you just stop and think for a minute. I mean, use common sense. WHY would Israel drop leaflets into the streets of Lebanon urging the civillians to leave the area if their intention all along was to kill them? What do they possible have to gain? They don't need anymore bad press than they are already getting so what possible advantage would they have by killing civillians?

They have said all along that they want to completely disarm Hezbollah and I believe it to be true. I do not believe for one minute, not even one second that the Israelis purposely kill civillians. Why? Because it doesn't help accomplish their goal.

Answer 2

I forgot who said this first, but terrorism is the war of the poor, and war is the terrorism of the rich. Israel has huge "firepower", and the full military backing of the USA--it would not be possible for Hezballah to stand up and "fight fair". Most US media ignores the fact there are deep underlying problems in that region that give rise to terrorist behavior. I don't at all condone terrorism, but Israel is killing far more innocent civilians than is Hezballah (most of those being killed in Lebannon are innocents).

Answer 3

All terrorists when confronted hide behind civilians. That is their way of propaganda. If innocent people die it is the fault of the bomber. So they hide around civilians and fire rockets. Then the media films the dead civilians and it gives the terrorists a way to say "They did this all rise and fight". So it is THEIR propaganda.

They also do this in other areas of the world as well.

Answer 4

The real ones Guilty are the members of the New World Order...

This is Isreali propaganda, but Hezbolah is true. The problem is that Hezbolah represent the ones who fight against Israel, Usa, and the New World Order. But this is a fake resistance. Where they get their weaons?? China! But we don't ask not to sell anymore....Please look at this, investigate, and think about it... :

Answer 5

Israeli propaganda for sure.

Answer 6

Too much propaganda.
A cease-fire was offered to Israel today and they kept bombing, I don't understand why we can't force peace in the area and stop the killing of children.

Answer 7

Sure they do, They are TERRORISTS, more than %75 of the civilians they say to be dead are hizbullah fighters.
take a look at BOTH the videos below, you might understand whats going on.

Answer 8

I don't need news from Israeli sources to verify this. I have seen independent sources that authenticate that Hizballah fighters have dressed in civilian clothes and hidden themselves as unidentifiable combatants in suburban areas.
