Ik wil dit nog maar weer eens een keer onder de aandacht brengen: Israël beschuldigt Hamas er toch van dat zij burgers als menselijk schild gebruiken? Graag verwijs ik naar onderstaande passages uit een VN-rapport van een jaar geleden. Google gerust het nummer van het rapport en overtuig jezelf.. UN: Israel uses Palestinian children as human shields! (June 14th, 2013) UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, CRC/C/ISR/CO/2-4, 14 June 2013. Concluding observations on the second to fourth periodic reports of Israel, adopted by the Committee at its sixty-third session (27 May – 14 June 2013) 71. The Committee expresses deep concern about the continuous use of Palestinian children as human shields and informants (14 such cases having being reported from January 2010 to 31 March 2013 only) and about the failure of the State party to comply with the ruling of the High Court of Justice in Adalah et al. v. Commander of the Central Region et al. (HCJ 3799/02, Judgement of 23 June 2005) as recommended by the Committee in 2010 (CRC/OPAC/ISR/CO/1 para. 25) in this respect...... .....Almost all those using children as human shield and informants have remained unpunished and that the soldiers convicted for having forced at gunpoint a nine-year old child to search bags suspected of containing explosives only received a suspended sentence of three months and were demoted. 72. The Committee urges the State party to immediately abide by the High Court of Justice in Adalah et al. v. Commander of the Central Region et al., to take active measures to prevent the use of children as human shields and informants, effectively enforce the prohibition to use of children as human shields and informants and ensure that perpetrators are brought to justice and punished with sanctions commensurate with the gravity of their crimes.
