boys are taking part in the battles, and are sent to the front too, in hopes of getting some of them killed to score victories on the PR front

Come on, Nadine. At some level you must know that if that were true, the western press would be all over this story.

I showed you two of these stories

Both from Israeli sources.

. I believe them.

No doubt you do. That's not good enough, though.

The question is why only Israeli sources say so.

Many, many stories, have been written in the Western media about the mindset of would-be martyrs and the leadership that inculcates them, both boys and adults

Yes, but, AGAIN, this has nothing to do with the point, which is whether or not, as you claim, Palestinian shooters hide behind little kids who then unfortunately get killed as Israeli shooters try to aim at the Palestinian shooters behind them.
