IDF Unveils Confiscated Hamas Map Showing Sniper Positions And Booby Traps...All In Civilian Areas

I don't know if we stacked up all the evidence against Hamas' use of the civilians of Gaza as shields that the world would EVER change its mind on the Gaza situation but Israel has produced a map they confiscated from northern Gaza that details just how Hamas used civilian areas in that city to launch attacks, house snipers and place explosives. It really is a fascinating piece here from The Jerusalem Post that details much of the way Hamas had planned for the ground operation of the IDF:

Paratroopers in northern Gaza have uncovered a map prepared by Hamas that shows how the terror group prepared for the IDF's incursion by deploying different types of bombs as well as snipers throughout the town of Atatra.

"On the map, the terrorists also marked sniper positions, as well as the location of roadside bombs, antitank bombs and land mines," Chief Intelligence Officer Brig.-Gen. Yuval Halamish said on Thursday.

Halamish said the map showed how Hamas does not hesitate to use civilian infrastructure for its terrorist activity. A brown dot marked next to a mosque represents a sniper position.
"This is a civilian area, and you can see on the map how Hamas booby-trapped the entrance to homes to hit the IDF," Halamish said.

One part of the article I found particularly inventive by the likes of the dipshits Hamas was this:

In another case, soldiers discovered a mannequin dressed like a soldier at the entrance to a home, Halamish said.
Had soldiers entered the home, the mannequin would have exploded, collapsing the floor and causing the troops to fall into a tunnel, where Hamas men would have tried to abduct them.

One can imagine how many IDF lives were saved by them finding this map and while the world won't change its mind on the tactics of Hamas, it's worth it to document all of these infractions. Perhaps at one of the many peace protests across the country where American fools wave pali flags someone will get a chance to ask one of the lowlife protesters how they would feel if their home was used to store mortars and was booby trapped. Then again, they'd probably say they wouldn't care.

IDF unveils Hamas map seized in Gaza

Paratroopers in northern Gaza have uncovered a map prepared by Hamas that shows how the terror group prepared for the IDF's incursion by deploying different types of bombs as well as snipers throughout the town of Atatra.

The handwritten map is based on a bird's-eye view of the town, likely taken from Google Maps. On the map, Hamas split the town into three sectors - red, blue and green - and highlighted important sites such as mosques, a gas station and a fuel depot.
"On the map, the terrorists also marked sniper positions, as well as the location of roadside bombs, antitank bombs and land mines," Chief Intelligence Officer Brig.-Gen. Yuval Halamish said on Thursday.
The map was discovered by soldiers from the Paratroop Brigade during operations in Atatra and was translated in the field and used to minimize casualties.

Halamish said the map showed how Hamas does not hesitate to use civilian infrastructure for its terrorist activity. A brown dot marked next to a mosque represents a sniper position.
"This is a civilian area, and you can see on the map how Hamas booby-trapped the entrance to homes to hit the IDF," Halamish said.
In another case, a large bomb was marked next to a gas station. Had it been detonated it would have likely destroyed the gas station, killing and wounding civilians who live in the area.
In another case, soldiers discovered a mannequin dressed like a soldier at the entrance to a home, Halamish said.
Had soldiers entered the home, the mannequin would have exploded, collapsing the floor and causing the troops to fall into a tunnel, where Hamas men would have tried to abduct them.
