Al Jazeera reporter cuts away from Gaza hospital patient revealing how Hamas hiding among the sick

Source: Times of Israel



A clip from a recent Al Jazeera broadcast has gone viral, showing the Qatari network’s correspondent interviewing a patient at a Gaza hospital who complains in front of the camera that Hamas fighters are hiding among the sick in the medical center.

Before the elderly patient can continue speaking, the Al Jazeera correspondent moves away so that the message cannot continue to be heard on air.

The Qatari-funded Al Jazeera network has been accused by Israel’s backers of fanning the flames of conflict.

The militants will seek out places wherever they feel hidden and safe.
Blend in with the general population, hide in places where your enemy might not think to look, or be reticent to follow you there.
Not unexpected.

Yes, human shields, devalued value of human life, etc.
It's urban warfare.

Would be nice of Hamas to camp somewhere away from the general population and wage war out in the open, but that's not going to happen.

If the IDF wants to root out the terrorists, it will take house to house, building to building close combat.
We have seen it before.
It's urban warfare.

My question is - after the fighting stops, and all the dead are buried, what will happen?
Peace?
Rebuilding?
Or just more blame game playing?
