Hamas Is Murdering Palestinian Babies in Gaza Hospitals
(The Hill) Alan Dershowitz - Media outlets around the world are showing dead and dying Palestinian babies in hospitals - but what they are not showing is who murdered these babies. Babies are now dying because Hamas has stolen the fuel to run hospital generators. Babies are also dying because Hamas is using them as human shields to protect its murderous terrorists. The main cause of these deaths is Hamas strategy, and a secondary cause is the role of the media in implementing the Hamas strategy. The only way to break this cycle is for the media and the international community to expose and condemn it as a clear violation of the laws of war, which expressly prohibit the use of hospitals and patients to protect terrorists. Next time you see a dead Palestinian baby on TV, shed a tear for that innocent victim. But point the finger of guilt at Hamas, not Israel. The writer is professor emeritus at Harvard Law School.
