I wish the journalists would push back on the HS narrative, especially since there have been multiple videos of incidents of Israel using Palestinians as such.

Also, no one seems to mention that the IOF HQ is in the middle of a residential area, surrounded by malls, apartments, sports complexes, and other civilian infrastructure, and the "War Room" and tunnels run under the city and those civilian infrastructures.

Then there's the refuted lies about Hamas being under/in hospitals, which only the US and Israel seem to still believe to be true.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to watch these briefings and not feel insulted as a viewer and outraged at the hypocrisy and complicity as a human being. I don't know how those reporters put up with it.

Agreed, the HS narrative is such garbage at this point. Far more proof Israel is using human shields than Hamas. Yup IOF HQ is right in the middle of Tel Aviv. Also in Tel Aviv, there are so many armed IOF soldiers walking around with machine guns, sometimes in uniform sometimes in civilian cloths. They are on the bus, the train, stores, restaurants, side walks. Based on The US and Israel definition of HS, everyone in Israel is a HS

Human SH1elds. We say HS because there is an Automod that is triggered by the word
