the amazing thing about the concept of "human shields" that is repeated totally uncritically by the entire Western media and political class to refer to Palestinians is that it actually perfectly applies to every single Israeli, but they don't even notice that obvious discrepancy

zionism is identical with whiteness in that it celebrates strength, “might is right”, while at the same time perceiving itself as very vulnerable and fragile—hence staggering acts of mass destruction framed as exquisite moral superiority
