The Shin Bet says some Hamas militans are hiding inside a hospital in Gaza, some of them disguised as doctors and nurses.
Also, the Israeli Air Force says the Hamas squads that launch the rockets tend to operate near towns and civilians in order to use them as human shields.

A decision wether to enter Gaza using ground forces will probably be made today.

Double post.

There are two sides to the story (I'm not picking sides). It's all well and good to post links that support your opinion but it's a little disingenuous to be so one-sided.

And what's that has to do with anything? Truce will be achieved only when rockets will stop landing in civillian areas in here. They refused to renew the 6-months-long cease-fire and started this attack about 10 days ago - they should've known the results.

And I almost forgot about the 'terror mosque'.

Total and utterly ridiculous non-sense.

why is it non-sense that hamas uses palestinian civilians? by operating among civilians, hamas knows that israel will attack those positions causing civilian deaths which will give hamas support among the civilian population.

I found the source you guys are talking about
those double crossing snakes!

Let's face it, you cant claim theyre hiding behind kids to avoid attack. They just enlist them at an earlier age.

Sucks to be this Palestinian kid....fuck, I wish Hama...oh wait, what do we have here-that doesnt look like arabic :S
