A lioness with cowards in the background.

Imagine publishing/advertising that you use innocent people as human shields.

Announce it to the world, stand beside the photo in a museum and look all happy and proud about it.

They have no humanity.

100% horrific beings. How far gone they are to award this behavior. The award should be for the most despicable war crimes in modern times.

The funny thing about this is I cannot hate the picture becuase the hajja looks completely awesome and will be shown to our descendants down the line like you might be hard, but you'll never be as badass as my great grandmother. I obviously am not supporting his feeling proud of the picture, but the fact that he has taken a snapshot of life and both sides can be in awe of it for polar opposite reasons is something that I think should be studied from a psychological standpoint.

"Israelis" live in a completely different world. And it isn't a good one.

I bet the interpretation used is "the most moral army in the world protecting the arab woman from the terrorists"

Interesting choice - showcasing their “morality” for generations to come?! Or will people truly realize what they are looking at?

Absolutely disgusting that a photograph of Israeli war criminals tying a woman to a chair to protect the Zionist war criminals. Vile and immoral.

The lack of insight into the optics of shamelessly posing with this photo, casually wearing a cheesy grin!!!! Staggering callousness. Completely oblivious and apparently devoid of shame and basic human empathy.

If anyone is wondering, the text on the second picture (next to the guy and below the "winning picture" he took) says "100% proud".

Wouldn't a human shield be in front of the soldiers to deter attacks rather than behind them? Anyone firing at the Israelis wouldn't know a human shield was behind the big mound of sand?
