The world should not be surprised that Hamas is hiding behind civilians and thereby causing many Palestinian deaths in Gaza, since Hamas leaders announced this strategy at the outset of their war against Israel.
Early in Hamas’ terror war on Israel, Hamas Political Bureau member Ghazi Hamad vowed Hamas would repeat of Oct. 7 massacre “a second, third, and a fourth time,” adding he was not concerned about Palestinian deaths — because he was “proud to sacrifice Martyrs”:
Hamas Political Bureau member Ghazi Hamad: “We need to educate Israel, and we will educate it a second time and a third time. The Al-Aqsa Flood won’t be [only] one time. No, it will be a second time, a third, and a fourth, because we have the will, the decision, and the capabilities to fight. We will pay a price, indeed, we are prepared. Allow me to tell you clearly, we are called “the people of Martyrs” and we are proud to sacrifice Martyrs.”

In addition, senior Hamas official Khaled Mashaal made it clear that Hamas leaders (sitting safely outside of “Palestine”) are not afraid of sacrificing thousands if not millions of Palestinians for “the liberation.”
Comparing potential dead Palestinian “Martyrs” to the millions of “Martyrs” who died for Russia, Vietnam, and Afghanistan during their “liberation” wars, Mashaal made it clear he doesn’t care about dead Palestinians:
Senior Hamas official Khaled Mashaal Mashaal: “Peoples are not liberated easily.
The Russians sacrificed 30 million people in World War II in order to be liberated from Hitler’s attack on them. The Vietnamese people sacrificed 3.5 million people until it defeated the Americans. Afghanistan first defeated the Soviet Union and afterwards America with millions of Martyrs.
The Algerian people [sacrificed] 6 million Martyrs over 130 years. The Palestinian people is like all the peoples, there is no people that is liberated without sacrifices.”

Palestinian Media Watch has exposed that Hamas leaders indeed do not care about the Palestinian civilians in their terror war against Israel, using them as human shields.
