          Yes, the meme is clearly trying to deny the use of human shields without having to say it. I was hoping OP or even you’d have balls to be honest about it, but that’s not happening.

          I’m not a native speaker so you can chalk it up to that, so it’s not as embarrassing when I call you out on not having the balls to stand behind your convictions. I’m giving you an easy way out there, might as well take it.

            No. The meme is condemning the evil of killing the human shields. If one is killing the human shields, then either the shields don’t exist (are propaganda) or you are equally evil.

            Which is it?

              Did you not see the first panel?

              If one is killing the human shields, then either the shields don’t exist (are propaganda)

              How would you even be killing humans shields who don’t exist?

                  I’m sorry but that doesn’t make sense, the wording is messed up. Which is funny because you wrote this to me:

                  there’s simply you being either obtuse or too ignorant to grasp the basics of the English language.

                  But in any case, it’s not a case of “if” they’re using human shields. They are using human shields.
