Recall that Hamas supposedly “hiding among civilians” was the CENTRAL justification for handwaving away 75,000 dead Palestinians. To the NYT’s limited credit they do at least quote Iranian officials pointing this out. But they ofc draw no parallels to Gaza https://t.co/LTFT6deE50
Once again US media is casually reporting the Pentagon’s use of human shields. Here the NYT details how US troops are hiding in civilian “office spaces” and “hotels” because they don’t want to be “vulnerable” or too close to “the current front lines”.
