Israel’s occupation army used to say that Palestinians freedom fighters use civilian as human shield. On the contrary, this BBC’s article showed that the Israelis is the one who show disregard to human life in relation to the rule of engagement.

Six years ago, Abdul-Latif Nasif and his two brothers built their family home on one of the hills over-looking the West Bank city of Nablus. Less than a month after it was finished, Mr Nasif says Israeli troops banged on the door and came in with dogs and guns, telling all his family to gather in one room. He says they took control of the upper storeys of the house and used it as a base and observation post as the army invaded Nablus. “They stuck maps on the wall in my living room and brought computers to make the room like a control room.” They stayed for over a month.
