Gazans say Hamas kept them in homes used by gunmen

.
Palestinian civilians have accused Hamas of forcing them to stay in homes from which gunmen shot at Israeli soldiers during the recent hostilities in Gaza, the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera reported Thursday.

More than 1,250 Palestinians were reportedly killed during Israel's offensive against Hamas in the coastal territory. But the Italian paper also quoted a doctor at Gaza City's Shifa Hospital as disputing the number:

"It's possible that the death toll in Gaza was 500 or 600 at the most, mainly youths aged 17 to 23 who were enlisted by Hamas - who sent them to their deaths,"

The Gaza doctor was further quoted as saying:

"Perhaps it is like Jenin in 2002. At the beginning they spoke about 1,500 dead, and at the end it turned out to be only 54 - of whom 45 were militants."

[history shows Arab 'reporting' is 90% fabricated propaganda - but our 'professional' media take it at face value anyway - and by the time the truth is know, it's no longer 'news'.]
