But going by its headline, I thought that AI article was going to be neutral. But, sadly, it isn't. While it mentions that Palestinian gunmen are endangering Palestinian lives, it spends most of its wordage berating Israeli soldiers for using Palestinian households to take up sniper positions. It never mentions that Hamas use civilians as sheilds - though the article does point out that using civilians in anyway, is terrible.
The article also makes no mention at all of the Israeli civilians who have been endangered in rocket attacks from Fatah/ Hezbollah and Hamas since 2002
I don't condone the actions of Israeli soldiers who perform voilent actions on civilians without cause. And I hate that over 100 Palestinian children have died. That's shocking.
But please, AI, don't pretend to write a neutral article on the conflict when it's really a veiled attack on Israel's tactics.
